I received a letter today from Rawlings Company on behalf of my insurance company BCBS. I was in an auto accident in 2024. Single vehicle. I was the driver and my daughter was the passenger. Thw letter is confusing and it mentions that I was making a claim to another party's insurance or my own. It goes on to mention a settlement. And ends with if I choose to hire an attorney please provide their information. What in the heck is this? I'm so confused

So we now know one of two things - either snapshot is designed poorly or FSD brakes too hard in a model 3. I don’t use anything except FSD and the best I’ve been able to score is 4 out of 5 stars all because of what it thinks is hard breaking - apparently snapshot isn’t designed for autonomous driving. PGR , time to wake up!

So I've had Embrace for a year now, and just discovered my monthly rate went up a whopping 40%. So I called them, and they said they raise rates for ALL policy holders on average 25-35% every single year. Ive had no claims. No changes in anything whatsoever. My dog is only 1 year older, now years old. There have been no changes in my state, and they can't attribute it to inflation. So screw that. I don't see how thats even legal to raise that much each year. That means in 4 years, I'd be paying more for mediocre pet insurance on 1 dog, than I pay for all of my insurances combined.

What are y’all thinking of doing- keep Healthy Paws for now if your premium hasn’t yet increased or cancel it now before you continue to give them money each month and they have a chance to ridiculously raise your premium in a year or two? I’ve had them as an insurer for two years. My golden retriever just turned 7. I know, these pet insurance companies get you bc it’s so hard to get new insurance for older dogs. I’m hesitant to continue giving a company my money if they treat their clients this way. The amount of premiums I’ve seen posted here in recent months is alarming.

I just thought about checking on my fetch insurance, went on to the medical record page, and found out that ALL my pet’s medical records were deleted!!! It says no medical records at all, but I’ve been updating my pet’s medical record since I adopted him in 2023. There are 4 records that I updated, including annual wellness check and initial baseline. I have the confirmation of medical records emails from fetch last year. I called them and reuploaded all the files. The customer service was nice but she said that she has no idea why this happened, and no further clarification on how to prevent this in the future. This feels so shady. Everyone with Fetch, please have the habit to check on your records regularly, because I’ve had experiences of them refusing my claim because I didn’t post annuals check up record every year. I can’t even imagine what could’ve happened if I didn’t think about checking the insurance today… still in shock

I have Allstate homeowners insurance in Southern California. I heard a noise in my kitchen a little while after I started my dishwasher so I went to investigate. I found my kitchen floors were covered in water. I finally realized it was a burst water inlet pipe underneath my kitchen sink. I’ve been trying to get a hold of my agent but he isn’t available today. I spoke to someone through Allstate and was told to call somebody out to mitigate damages. I’m afraid to have somebody come out and tear up my kitchen if the insurance is not going to cover it.

Like many people, I realized Optum HSA sucks and was trying to transfer over to Fidelity. I put in the request with Fidelity to initiate the transfer and saw that my funds were transferred out of my Optum account in early March via a check they send to Fidelity. Fast forward to this week, I talked to Fidelity several times since they had yet to recieve anything and in their words the timeline was odd. I call Optum and they are adamant that Fidelity should have received something and asks to me to confirm with them again by asking them to search by the check number. I trust Optum about as much as I trust the New York Rangers to win the Stanley Cup so I ask them to confirm where they sent the funds. They read off an address and company that I had NEVER heard of (it is a real HSA company though)... I then confirm they received the actual request from Fidelity and they dont need any additional information to execute the transfer since they ALREADY have the information they need... I don't have a huge HSA account so it was less stressful for me but I couldn't help but think how someone would feel with a HSA account with significant funds that they try to move towards the end of their career only for it to go missing. I'd have lost my mind in that situation! PSA: Double check everything and anything with Optum. If something smells fishy, it probably does for a reason.

Hi I’m an international student currently in the U.S. on a STEM OPT extension. Recently, I was admitted to the hospital due to severe pain, which turned out to be a kidney stone. I had to undergo surgery, and now I’ve been hit with a $50,000 medical bill. I have ISO insurance, but they’re refusing to cover the charges, saying it’s a pre-existing condition—even though this was the first time I ever experienced it and didn’t know about it before. As a student, I don’t have a high income, and this amount is overwhelming for me. I’m looking for any advice or guidance on what I can do to get help with this bill—whether it’s negotiating with the hospital, financial aid, or any legal options. Any direction would mean a lot right now. Thank you so much.

Do agents typically approach you? I was approached by a woman with a tablet telling me about insurance plans and claiming she was from ACA. She asked me if I wanted to apply to see if I were eligible and told me that I could cancel at any tome should I enroll in it. Turns out I was eligible for a basic plan that I pay 0 dollars for. So I am a bit skeptical about the whole thing. I have a screenshot about a confirmation on an onboard app. It has a Premier Secure number to cancel. I’m 90% my dumbass got scammed or something. I’ve done an enrollment with a Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance in a similar manner but I canceled that one because the mandatory doctor was an hour away.
