Is anybody else's Figo insurance going up 40% in 2025? My rate is going from $425/yr to $700/yr. I reached out to Figo and they blamed inflation of all things, saying nothing could be done about the price. I was told Figo was one of the better companies by all my pet owner friends & family, but they have never covered a claim and at these rates it would be cheaper for me to just put aside $50/mo. Really frustrated and looking for advice.

Has anyone else dealt with Progressive refusing to take responsibility for a rear-end domino effect accident with liability insurance, and then being told to fix your car first and wait for reimbursement while they wait for other vehicles to file claims

Hi. I have never seen any insurance company charge interest on car insurance. I got the paperwork and my payment went up 70.00 a month from what he quoted me. The interest is 14.5 % for not paying it off in full. How many people can pay 6000 yearly in full. This is crazy. Please help me understand. Ty :)

Hi, I’m looking for help on disputing information on my CLUE report. Back in March 2024, in Arizona, US, I was involved in a accident which was deemed to be the other driver’s fault. The payout went out from their policy. We were both insured with Progressive at the time. When I first called to report the accident, Progressive opened a claim on my policy, I wasn’t aware it was on my policy at the time, however, I made it clear to them that the other person agreed to having been at fault and gave me their insurance details. When the adjuster first contacted me, they spotted this mistake and closed the claim on my policy with 0 payout and opened a claim on the other party’s insurance, which ended up in a payout of $1400 to me. While shopping for insurance last week, I saw that progressive is listing the above accident as a non-chargeable at fault accident with 0 payout. To get this corrected as a no-fault accident on my LexisNexis CLUE report, I will need to raise a dispute, howe

I work for an employer that does Cigna healthcare with three tiers, but the costs for all three plans are similar to the three tiers that Blue Cross Blue Shield offers on the open market. I currently have a premium plan with BCBS for ~$1400/month and my employer’s premium plan is also ~$1400/month. How do companies get away with “offering” healthcare insurance that isn’t subsidized at all? This seems very disingenuous

I recently got into a car accident where I was rear-ended. The only damages were to my bumper and trunk. Geico gave me $2,000 to start repairs and said the shop could request more money if needed. I decided to take my car to Mercedes so dealer parts would be used. Mercedes told me they’d handle everything, but for two weeks I heard nothing from them or Geico. Then Geico called and said my car would be a total loss because Mercedes’ estimate was $9,671, which they said was above the 75% threshold. Geico valued my 2017 Mercedes C300 at $12,636. I did my own evaluation, adding in features/options Geico left out and $5,200 worth of maintenance I’d just done a week before the accident. After I sent my report, Geico updated the value to $15,453. At that value, the repair cost is clearly under the 75% threshold. Instead of changing the decision, Geico switched it from a “construction loss” to a “financial loss” and still marked it as salvage. Meanwhile, Mercedes had already taken my car apart without telling me, which caused storage fees to pile up, around $6,000. I was told the fees would only be waived if I fixed my car with them, which basically left me with no choice. What made me upset is that Geico ended up paying Mercedes about $7,700 for the initial estimate and storage fees, instead of just approving the $9,671 to fix the car. When I finally got my car back, it was still disassembled, with the bumper and parts thrown inside. Mercedes didn’t even bother to put it back together after being paid thousands of dollars. Given my car’s updated value, the repair cost is way below the 75% threshold, so how is it still being considered a total loss? I even asked if I could take it to a different shop for another estimate (since Mercedes is more expensive), and was told no. This whole process feels really unfair, and I don’t understand why my car is being treated as a total loss when it shouldn’t be.

I signed up for MetLife insurance and literally the next day my cat ate a rubber baby toy causing a blockage in his stomach. The policy had no waiting period for injuries but a 14 day waiting period for "illlness." An emergency surgery/hospitalization later, now Metlife is denying my claim saying that ingestion of a foreign body constitutes an illness not an injury so it was not covered. I got my vet to write a note saying it was clearly an injury not an illness, and wrote an entire appeal....only to have it denied for the exact same reason. Anyone have a similar experience? Also has anyone utilized the part of the policy where you can appeal an appeal to a third party neutral vet? It says I would have to pay for it but I am wondering if anyone has even had success doing that?

To start, I must say I am very familiar with contractual language, terms, etc. With that being said, I specifically combed through multiple providers agreements to ensure I'd have coverage for specific events. MetLife has denied all of my claims & appeals for of course, it having been a preexisting condition. That in itself is hilarious - during an annual checkup my vet and I were discussing how she's been and I mentioned a little sleepy that week but so was I and they diagnosed her with "lethargy". Either way, unless reviewing their policy certain tests and medications would appear to be included under coverage regardless. It's difficult to give specifics over Reddit, but I figured someone may be able to direct me on how to pursue this further.

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’m in shambles. A surgery out of network I was approved actually late last year is somehow now denied in network now? And the record of approval is nowhere to be found?? Literally saw it three weeks ago. I want to make sure this appeal hits the ball out of the park with all necessary info but it’s such an uphill mountain and I was so happy for a month and a half excitedly waiting for my surgery next month. Please help.
