Struck my uninsured motorcyclist. Car incurred 17,800 in damages. Claim against my insurance in Florida (geico). Car is a 2020 dodge challenger with 60k miles. Geo is saying the total loss threshold is 75%. But everything I find online says Florida is 80%. But when I read the actual statute it reads as though it may only apply to uninsured vehicles. I believe the kbb on the car is between 22.5 and 25. Which means that 5% can make or break this car being totaled. The car is paid off and I want to avoid it being totaled at all costs. I was also told by geico I cannot get a second opinion on the repair costs. They have not given me the acv of the vehicles yet and are still working on it.

I have Lemonade and they denied my claim because the covered illness was “discounted” on my invoice showing nothing due. I have a care plan through my vet that I’m paying $150 a month for. I submitted a claim for the exam and testing that my dog received which was included in my care plan. Am I wrong for expecting Lemonade to reimburse for this? Even though the invoice shows no charges, it’s only because I’ve been paying in advance with my care plan. I’ve had pet insurance before (24 Hour Pet Watch) and they reimbursed me for things that were included in my vets care plan. I see nothing in my policy that states they don’t reimburse what your care plan covers. They told me their “guidelines” say it will not be paid. I’m thinking about filing a complaint and canceling my policies with them.

The claim was for dental surgery (periodontal disease). The reason it was denied is that the cat had no previous medical records showing his dental condition. They also said that no single exam is going to be enough to establish he didn't have previous dental problems, they need to see a record of his health over time. I do realise that dental is a separate category as far as most insurence companies are concerned, but I also wonder if they won't use the same reasoning in future claims. How can I prove something wasn't a preexisting condition if I don't have records? Some background: My cat who is now 8 year old, grew up as a partly feral street cat in a non western country. Yearly vet visits for cats are not common practice there, and with him being the kind of cat that requires sedatives in order to get in a carrier, he ended up visiting a clinic even less than the average cat. In short he has barely any medical records from before arriving in Canada last year. I was actually a little surprised to see that I could even get insurance for a cat his age, but now I'm starting to suspect that they're just fine with taking my money but will never approve a claim. TLDR: Should I cancel an 8 year old cats insurence if he doesn't have any previous medical records?

I am trying to understand my Farmers insurance homeowners liability coverage and farmers isn’t being helpful at all. Basically what happened is while my wife and I were out of the country, my child accidentally kicked my sprinkler line near the drip system and broke it. Long story short, it flooded a room in my neighbors home over about a 7 day period. They just kept mopping it up and hoping it would stop. I’m not sure why they let it go on for that long but they did. Anyway it ruined some of the floor and caused some moisture to settle into the drywall. It was about a 15 ft x 15 ft area of water damage. Will my homeowners liability insurance cover the water damage in this situation?

This past Sunday, while watching a movie at a theater, someone ran over brand new my motorcycle in the parking lot. Thankfully the person who did, told an employee and waited for me. He gave me all of his information. I filled a claim with his insurance, The Hartford and am a little worried about it now. Within a day of filing the claim, they have switched the adjuster and the new adjuster told me, “honestly, I don’t know. I’m not going to ghost you…” when I asked for a timeline on them getting back to me. Are they just going to give me the run around?

State farm sent me a letter saying they weren’t going to renew my policy due to my dad’s driving record, mentioned said claims and one accident that he was in and that I had to switch by April. My parents and I have different agents and I have my own policy but I think our policies are tied together somehow? Anyway, I asked my mom if they had finally switched and she said no, that their agent didn’t see such claims on their end and were able to remain with State Farm. My parents never used the roadside assistance that State Farm claimed in the nonrenewal letter so what the hell.Has anyone been in a similar situation? I’ve already switched insurance but I’m curious to talk to my agent to know why there’s inconsistency.

Hello everyone who sees this post. I’m a first time mom dog and need advice on some wellness plans for my 1 month old Labrador Retriever. I’ve done a lot of research on different wellness plans and pet insurance but feel so overwhelmed. I also don’t want to pick any wellness plans as I want to make sure I’m getting my moneys worth and the appropriate care for my puppy. I’ve only had him for 5 days so far and would give my life for him. I recently went to visit Banfield hospital that was inside of PetSmart at midtown crossing shopping center. The visit was free because my puppy was a new patient. I got him his first dosage of dewormer. The customer service was great and they were very attentive with my puppy. I arrived late to my appointment but they still saw him. I’ve read some reviews and other Reddit post about Banfield and they have been not so great. So I just want to get advice on whether or not the wellness early care plus plan is good for the first year of my puppy’s life and ONLY for the first year. It includes: -introductory comprehensive physical exam -graduation comprehensive physical exam -routinely recommended vaccinations -ear swab to help catch signs of parasites and disease (1x a year) -screening test for heartworm and tick-borne diseases -WISDOM PANEL health DNA test to screen for genetic diseases -fecal exam (3x a year) and routine deworming (4x a year) -virtual visits (2x a year) -pet wellness 1-1 session -unlimited office visits -neuter surgery, including preanesthetic blood testing with electrolyte panel and monitoring throughout the procedure and recovery This will be $78/monthly. Coming out to $936 for the year. Of course, for additional recommended vaccines and additional charges for medication and extra procedures not covered by the plan, I’m willing to pay out of pocket. I’ll be sure to get my puppy pet insurance as well but still looking. So far I’ve seen Spot, Figo (since I have a Costco membership), and lemonade. For now I’m thinking setting the coverage plan at its lowest so I pay no more than $20 a month. I know how it sounds, but I don’t want to pay so much for pet insurance right now as he’s still small. Once I see that he’s growing and being more of a menace, then I’ll change his plan to cover more so I won’t have to worry about paying so much out of pocket. What do you guys think about this? I need all the advice I can get on the Banfield plan and my idea on the pet insurance thing. Asking for all advice. Thank you for taking the time to read and respond to me. You don’t know how much I appreciate it.

Recently my father passed away. I’m his only child and there was no will, however, I moved out a few years ago and my mom lived there with him even though they’re divorced. I never probated the house or got it put in my name so I’m sure that will be an issue later if I did want to file a claim through State Farm later on. What I need to know is if I should file a claim or fix it out of pocket? My mom has let the house go in a pretty terrible way. Before my dad passed it wasn’t great. The floor was bubbled up in some places and sunken in others. When the upstairs toilet overflowed the chandelier fell off the ceiling in the kitchen. He filed a claim through State Farm once in 20 years to get new carpet but it did not fix the underlying problem. Now there’s holes in the ceiling, in the floor, in the walls. And there’s rats. You sit on the couch and you can hear them scratching in the walls and running through the house. The back deck has unattached itself from the house and is falling apart. I feel so bad for my mom and I don’t even know what the problem is much less how to begin to fix it or who to call. Please please any kind of advice would help. Edit: I think that the holes and the problems with the floor being sunken and swollen are from some kind of leak?? Maybe under the house but I’m not sure. I know insurance won’t get rid of rats or anything like that. I just wanted to know if the other stuff was able to be claimed had it been a result of something else like a leak.

I got pet insurance on each of my dogs when I got them. The second dog got a better, more budget-friendly policy thanks to the benefit of time and experience on my part. The first dog, however, is the medical problem one. The past few years we have barely hit our $500 deductible, but his plan was renewed today for 2025, and we will be hitting the deductible tomorrow due to a scheduled appointment. A few months back I got a rate increase notification from Fetch (0/10 do not recommend btw). That was fine, but what I didn't realize is that his $600/yr insurance jumped to **$1,000/year**, which was a SUPER fun surprise to my bank account this morning, especially when I budgeted six hundred into a very tight and aggressively paying down debt budget. My first reaction was eff this, cancel it. My second reaction was remembering this dog is set for roughly $700 in sedated arthritis x-rays and a biopsy of a potentially cancerous growth TOMORROW. We can't get any coverage in time if we switched today, can't really reschedule the appointment, it needs to be done soon, and his bad hips and allergies would already be considered pre-existing conditions. I don't have an emergency fund built up for the dogs, I wasn't making enough money last year, and ate down my savings. This dog is already going on prescription food, daily joint supplements, and needs to be taken swimming for his unofficial physical therapy (mutts aren't always healthier FYI). Talk me off the ledge here, this $1,000 is still worth it right? Do we eat the cost for this year and reevaluate next year depending on how this one goes?

The patient is enrolled in the Moda Health Beacon EPO plan, and the provider is listed as participating in the Beacon network. However, the claim was denied by the payer, citing that the provider is not a participating provider. Could you please clarify whether participation in the Beacon network includes all plan types such as PPO, HMO, and EPO?"
