Ok, progressive is sending me a massive rate hike for next month, and i've had it. I need the literal cheapest option, for insurance prices , here in CA. Its insane. I cant pay 1000 a year for a crappy car, so i need the affordable answer. Hope someone has answers out there. hope.

So I have just passed my full A license test and as such now am a fully qualified rider in the UK. I was previously on a CBT so a learner. I phone my insurance company to update them, and they have said that because of my license change they would no longer cover me, as now I'm a "new rider" and my cover will end in 7 days. This policy is at 10 months, so because of me being MORE qualified to ride, I lose almost a full year no claims ? How can that in any way be fair/right ? Is there anything I can do ?

I have UPMC Advantage health Insurance and was taking Vascepa (icosapent ethy) and then the script went to $450 for a 3 month supply. In January i used a coupon from the Vascepa website and was able to get the medicine for $9!! ($3 per month) I just went back to the pharmacy yesterday (Giant Eagle) and they said that because UPMC no longer covers "Vascepa" I'd have to get the generic icosapent ethy, for which there is no coupon and it would cost $150 ($50 per month). Does anyone know how to get icosapent ethy for less? Also, why isnt there more outrage at the fact that our health insurers are constantly TAKING away from our plans and making it more expensive to get medicines we need?

So I hit someone’s car and the damage was very minimal. Just a tiny dent and a scratch. I filed a claim, and the guy I hit said the damage was minimal so he wasn’t going to file one. I called yesterday to cancel and was told by progressive I would get a call today. I get a call and let the lady know I wanted to cancel because of the reason provided. She then gives me attitude over the phone and we hangup the call. What do I do in this situation ?

On June 10th I was rear ended while stopped at a red light by a woman who was texting. She got out and immediately admitted fault and the incident was caught on my dashcam. Now, two months and ~$20k worth of repairs later, I have my car back. I drive a 2024 Kia Sportage, roughly 18.5k miles on it, top of the line trim package. Prior to the accident the car was in perfect condition. Geico (her insurance provider) has offered me $5k in diminished value. Is this worth even bothering with negotiation, or does the little guy always lose?

I currently have Healthy Paws for my 4 year old (soon to be 5) dog. She has been with them since Dec of 2023, - almost 2 years - and my premiums have increased twice so far (once after the first year and then once again because I moved and I've never hit my deductible yet). My policy covers 80% with an unlimited payout and a $500 deductible. I currently pay $73 monthly but when I first got my policy it was \~$58. I see a lot of posts on this forum about the premium increases from HP and it makes me nervous for the future, especially when dogs are hitting 10 and premiums are sky rocketing to unaffordable rates. My question: if you have an elder pet, what insurance do you have, how long have you been with them, what is your policy and how much do you pay? I've found HP easy to deal with and I like having an unlimited policy, but the premium increases make me nervous. What insurance company has comparable policies that don't sky rocket their premiums as your pet gets older?

I’ve received a series of new and confusing EOBs denying claims I usually had had no problem getting approved quickly before. Pets Best informed me on the phone that they have a new automated system that some claims get filtered into that is causing some claims to be incorrectly denied. Wanted to update and post here because their customer service truly is so helpful and kind, and if you call them they will fix your issues by flagging your denials for manual review.

A couple of weeks ago my partner was in a car accident that was his fault. He is going through our insurance (AAA). The financed car was totalled. After talking to insurance, they stated that due to him being upside down on the loan, he is responsible for the entire loan balance due to not getting gap insurance. I know he should have gotten it, but he chose not to. Shouldn't our insurance cover the fair market value of the car and he owe whatever the difference is? Checking our insurance, we have Collision "Actual Cash Value Less Deductible."

Hey everyone. Need some insight from anyone who can chime in! So I am with Allstate Insurance. I had a collision with my truck (driving slow, hit a patch of black ice and my truck goes right into a transformer box(those green boxes that you usually see somewhere in a residential area ) and my truck is totaled. It’s been 2 months since I’ve filed the claim and I’ve basically heard nothing since. I have been calling 3-4 times a week, leaving 2-3 emails a week. Basically nothing. Just curious what should I do since it seems like claims never should take this long?

Pets Best insurance premium increased 50% last month. Premium initially doubled when I moved from SC to NC 3 yrs ago then this additional 50%. Current coverage; - accident/illness - Unlimited, 90% reimbursement, $250 deductible. -No well care. Annual premiums are only about $20 less than annual WellCare visit charge. Ran a new quote online from same company. It is 50% of new premium (so less than premium before last month’s increase). Makes no sense. 1 dog - Doxy long-hair - 5 yrs old. Insurance with Pets Best since I got him at 6-8 weeks old. He’s generally healthy but I carry insurance because of typical issues a doxy can develop as they age. The only vet visits he’s had outside of well care: (1) Urgent care visit & call to poison control in 2022 after he got into medication (claim was made and they paid around $50). (2) An out of town visit to vet when he had Gastro issues (throwing up/diarrhea) and wasn’t eating. Cause unknown. Given a round of antibiotics and no more issues. This vet isn’t on his records and I didn’t file a claim since it was under my deductible. My questions: (1) Outside of taking a chance that something happens during the waiting period of a new policy, is there any reason I shouldn’t apply for a new policy to get the lower premium? (2) Will the prior poison visit be considered existing condition if there is another event? He was fine and hadn’t ingested anything harmful. They just watched him for a couple hours. (3) Is the insurance company likely to pick up the out of town gastro visit and consider any future gastro issues an existing condition since I didn’t claim? Thanks in advance for input.
