So when I bought my first car under my parents insurance I was paying them $200 a month. I had one minor accident, no speeding tickets however I did have window tint tickets I forgot to pay after I sold the car shortly after. Not paying those caused my license to be suspended so I applied for quotes and got crazy responses like $1100 a month from geico. I see ppl here suggest insurance brokers often as a last resort so that’s what I did. Got 2 diff quotes of $411 and $398. Since I had already bought the car and needed insurance asap I took it. But my question is do I really have to pay 50% of the cars value in insurance annually? Is this really my life from now on? Or will it be a bit better now that I’ve unsuspended my license CAR IS A 2012 ACURA TL SH AWD btw Location: NY 25yo male TL;DR: Bought expensive $400 insurance when my license was suspended. Can I get cheap insurance since I unsuspended it 2 days later? Or not because of my one minor accident 3 years ago

I submitted a claim for a Wellness Benefit. Date of service: Feb. 2025 Aflac denied the claim on the grounds that a Wellness Benefit had already been paid out this calendar year. But the last Wellness Benefit had been for a date of service in November 2024, so last year. The only way I can figure it is that my policy began in May 2015, and that by "calendar year" they mean May-to-April, not January-to-December. Or.... are they wrong to deny my claim?

I don't know much about auto insurance claims, but I do know they have to and in no uncertain terms tell me they are denying my claim and why in an official and written communication. I need someone to give me advice what to do next. I have a strongly worded demand letter giving the 1 week to get me my total loss documents and an offer for ACV....I'm probably screwed. 17 days after the accident the at-fault driver's insurance told me they were taking responsibility and needed me to contact the impound lot and approve them to pick it up. They then told me I would be getting a rental car, comparable to my vehicle ( a 7 seater XL SUV and it would be authorized for a minimum of 5 days, to be extended as needed. Then they asked for my statement--- They accepted fault before they even heard my side, and my side further points the finger at their guy. July 1st They took it to their body shop and I picked up my rental and I didn't hear anything for a couple days so July 3rd I called the shop up and the owner said they told the person who dropped it off that it was totaled without needing to be evaluated and to take it away (they left it anyway) She said left a voicemail with the adjuster that day but hadn't heard back from her yet. I call and leave a voicemail with the adjuster and since it was the day before 4th of July I wasn't really expecting to hear back from her until Monday at the earliest. I didn't hear anything until 7/9-Wednesday. It was an my email to check the claims portal for new documents. It was a document for a repair cost estimate. $24,000 and my car is worth $21,000 on a really good day. The repairs are things like welding to repair frame, taking various pa from a 2024 model (my car is 2018), not even a compatible year. Voicemail notification pops up from the adjuster. Hey, just wanted to touch base. Our liability department reviewed the claim and determined they were no longer taking responsibility for it. Please let me know where you would like to have my vehicle taken. If I want to send her a text with my address she can even be so nice to leave it in my driveway. She calls again on the 11th leaving another voicemail. I say call, but my phone isn't ring there's no missed call in my log--- This voicemail she is super chipper, telling me the good news that my vehicle can be fixed, says to check my email to see the estimate for repair, tells me I just need to take that to my insurance and they will get the repairs done since they are no longer accepting responsibility. "Your insurance has probably already been communicating with you and asking you for it. No man, they denied my claim 3 weeks ago boi. My insurance has been terrible through this too, can't get them to call me back so at this point I take it upon myself to order my own copy of the police report because there has got to be a reason they're suddenly flipping the script on me..... I get a copy of the accident report 7/15 and oooh boy, that has to be the DUMBEST cop on the planet. Here's his report Driver 1 was traveling down lane 2 , veered into the guard wires on the left. Driver 1 then took a sharp right being perpendicular in lane 1 when driver 2 collided.---- Like it all happened at the same time. OH! And he apparently cited me for improper lane usage which has to do with unsafe lane changes and swerving outside the lines. The diagram he drew is equally ridiculous. Nothin he had in the report was anything I had said. Here is the gist of what actually happened that day: Traveling in the left lane on the highway at 320am my tire came off ....and I'm not talking just my tire, the entire hub. At the time I had no clue what happened and am only guessing, honestly at what happened next -my car sank down slightly on the driver side and suddenly I couldn't steer,, my vehicle is not responding even if I held the steering while steady or if I decided to jerk it hard to the right. When gently touching the brake the car wanted to make a hard right so while It had a mind of its own, all I could do was down shift and pray THANK GOD I was able to reduce speed to 40mph and that the road was empty because my vehicle decided to suddenly make a harsh veer right which caused my car to do a fancy spin across the highway to the right lane and came to a stop facing oncoming traffic. My vehicle was semi parallel to the highway and mostly on the shoulder, but partially in the right lane as well. Facing oncoming traffic but the front of the car more on the shoulder and the back more in the right lane. My vehicle automatically starts flashing every light ever and blaring out the alarm sound, and saying "we are contacting emergency services" or whatever it said. Sweet saves me something to do since my car refuses to budge. I should mentioned that it was twilight out and I was grateful that my vehicle was facing head on because my headlights and fog lights are hard to miss, impressive and now they are blinking.. I contact AAA and put out these orange plastic cones that I had in the back from soccer practice...better than nothing. I can see that my tire is there but it looks crooked. I get back in the vehicle because I assume I would survive an impact surrounded by steel better than if I wasn't. I'm watching cars approach, slow down and change lanes for about 20 minutes while AAA takes their sweet time. 345ish is when I see this minivan in the right lane coming quick and not slowing down at all, other cars are getting over ya know?.... the next part happens in a blur no idea what occurred, I think my brain took over and put my conscious to sleep for a second he smashes into my beast of an SUV going at least 80mph-never touching his brakes, no tire marks on the ground But I am standing on the side of the road so I must've escaped just in time. and on the shoulder is my driver side tire disconnected like a loose tooth. My vehicle gets thrown 100 yards down the highway, he continues another 100-150 yards down the road and up an embankment about 20 feet. I think he's dead, i run down to check on him, by the time I get there he is standing outside his vehicle and on the phone with 911. He was real cool, grateful I was alive he tells me that he was sorry. He had his cruise control on and his cat was in the back seat. His cat started meowing so he was turned around checking on it and before he could turn back around he smashed into my SUV He had to have been not looking at the road a solid 60-90 seconds--- visibility was far even at twilight. ANYWAY, I write the insurance carrier and go over my review of the accident report and pointing out inaccuracies such as where my vehicle ended up would have been impossible had it been a t-bone collision and the fact that his vehicle traveled 200 yards after impact supports my side of the story that his passenger side collided with my passenger side, in a semi head on way....hard to describe how my vehicle sat, it was parallel but not perfectly so, the back of my car was slightly in the right lane and the front of my vehicle was slightly more on the shoulder. Also mentioned that I had order a copy of the 911 call where he admitted to me he wasn't looking at the road....before I could hit send, I get an email saying to check the claim portal, they have a copy of the police report and a letter attached saying that they were sharing the police report with me and that the police report does not state their client is at fault. ALSO DOESNT SAY IM AT FAULT BUT WHATEVER!! Enterprise calls me they want to report the vehicle stolen, they give me 24 hour grace aka today in 3 hours. I send a strongly worded demand letter pointing out that they have not denied nor finished my claim, and they were the ones who approved a rental car to see me through the length of this claim so they are obligated to continue paying for my car rental and if they fail to do so then I will have no choice but to submit a complaint for bad faith practices. Gave them 24 hours to respond. I don't understand what is going on, why change their minds like this but not outright deny the claim and end it here--this game playing I don't have time for it but I am a petty person I will not roll over. I'm frustrated. No attorney wants to take this case because I'm not injured, wishing now I had stayed in my vehicle so at least the insurance couldn't mess with me. I'm too broke to pay for an attorney, but I can't afford to lose a $20,000 asset because they are a bully.

Got the new 2025 Auto Insurance invoice from Erie Insurance. The only thing I can figure is one of my adult sons hit an unknown object lying in the middle of the turnpike late at night that resulted in some damage to one of our cars. It wasn't anyone's fault and Erie ended up paying out about $3,500 for repairs. But I don't think that justifies such a huge rate increase for each vehicle!!! **Anyone else get huge price jumps from Erie Insurance?** \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_2013 Accord| 2010 LaCrosse| 2013 Sienna| 2021 Accord| 2017 Accord| 2024 Cost|        $ 436.00|        $ 207.00|        $ 326.00|        $ 368.00|        $ 371.00| 2025 Cost|        $ 634.00|        $ 337.00|        $ 733.00|        $ 699.00|        $ 596.00| % Increase\_\_\_\_\_\_+45%\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_+63%\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_+125%\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_+90%\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_+61%

I had an ER visit back in Dec 2024 and I got a bill yesterday for 1000$. On my insurance app (MI Medicaid) it says I owe 0$ and the claim was denied but I still got a bill. Am I responsible to pay this bill still? I submitted a claim with my insurance because it was an emergency and at night no urgent cares were open. It’s Sunday so nothing is open and nobody else I can talk to right now. What should I do?

I was in an accident back in April. At the time I did not have insurance on my car. The driver who hit and totaled my car admitted fault. Since I didn’t have insurance at the time I contacted their insurance company(Corvel) myself. After 2 months of constantly calling I was able to get in contact with an agent and she was able to compensate me for the car damages and towing charges. She later said she would take care of my medical. I was supposed to gather my medical records from the day of the accident and my medical bills and email them to her. I sent them back in the beginning of June and have not heard back since. Ive emailed and called and have heard nothing. Is this worth pursuing or should I just call it a day and be grateful for what I have received?

Is it even legal for Healthy Paws pet insurance to increase premiums at almost 200% in CA? This is outrageously high!! Anyone experiencing the same? #healthypawspetinsurance

Hi guys, I used to have Healthy Paws for my cat but wasn’t happy with the service or price, so I switched to Embrace about 3-4 years ago. My cat is now 5 and her current coverage is: $5K annual limit, $1K deductible, and 80% reimbursement. Recently, they denied a claim for a mass removal on her nose, citing a 2022 note about a mass on her thigh—which my vet believed was just a mild reaction to a vaccine that was administered the week prior reaction that resolved on its own (EXACT same location as the vaccine). I’ve submitted a request to review the claim and re-evaluate that pre-existing condition. This is the first time I've had to disagree with their assesment of the bill, and not sure how that will go. But now knowing that they won't cover any masses (including cancer) because of this makes me anxious. This made me reconsider Embrace, what pet insurance do you all use, what’s your coverage like, and how much do you pay monthly? Any recommendations for an insurance that would cover future masses (including cancer) even though she had a "mass" in 2022 that was most likely just a reaction to a vaccine lol.

I’ve been thinking about getting Lemonade Pet Insurance for my dog, but I’m not really sure if it’s a good deal or just another scam. I’ve read some reviews that say Lemonade Pet Insurance is affordable and quick to process claims, but others mention hidden fees and terrible customer service. Honestly, I don’t want to end up paying all this money and then having Lemonade Pet Insurance deny my claim when my dog gets sick. Has anyone here actually used Lemonade Pet Insurance long-term? How’s the coverage, especially for things like emergencies or hereditary conditions? Would love to hear real experiences before I make a decision.

I have 3 vehicles under my name, we were in the middle of moving between cities and I decided to change the location. Due to last minute changes, we decided to stay at our current location. I went to log back into geico to change it back and it says they locked my account and when I called them they said “they are investigating the location of the vehicles”. What are my options now and what should I do?
