Have an issue with your insurance?
Let everyone know!
Insurance companies are constantly reviewing us. Are we too old? Do we live in the wrong place? Is our credit score high enough? Well, now it's time to turn the tables. Do you charge too much? Will you pay my claim quickly? Is your coverage worse than it seems? We can review you too.
Health Insurance - Is this fraud? Health insurance added extra funds for prescriptions to my out-of-pocket maximum, but I am concerned it was a system error.
I picked up a few prescriptions in January for a Tier 2/$30 copays. This was a transition fill because my employer switched pharmacy benefits manager (PBM) and the medications were not on the new formulary. They said the lower cost was a grace period and standard of care while appealing for an Exception For Coverage.
A few weeks later my Exception For Coverage for the medications were approved so I paid Tier 3/30% coinsurance on the next fills in February. The Exception For Coverage was backdated to January 1st, 2025. Then, the following month it looks like the PBM reprocessed the January fills as a Tier 3/30% coinsurance and the additional cost was applied to my out-of-pocket maximum accumulator through my health insurance.
I'm not sure what is going on here? I called the PBM and was advised that they will not recoup cost from me and they will not ask the pharmacy to reprocess the claim. The OOP max was never mentions previously, but the representative confirmed that my current out-of-pocket maximum (with the added amount) was accurate as well.
Is this common practice for PBMs? Or, could it have been a system error? Has anyone else had something like this happen to them? I am so confused about this because I have not been billed for the additional increase in coinsurance from the PBM, but it feels like fraud since I know the numbers do not add up.
State Farm - Nonrenewal car policy
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.
Aviva - Looking to get a fleet policy for 4 cars
Firstly I appreciate any insight into this matter as it can be a minefield I know!
I’m looking to insure myself (m34) and partners (f30) 4 vehicles, we reside on a non working farm in West Yorkshire but will soon be moving to a similar setup in north wales.
Could anyone recommend a solid company to go with please?
Also open to the possibility of becoming a Ltd company once we move as we will be running a small business from the farm if that helps the situation at all.
we have dealt with aviva in the past and they have always been a struggle when it comes to claims.
Thanks 🙏
Wilber - Wilber (Insurance Recovery) Asking for More Money Than I Owe – Anyone Faced This in Texas?
Hey everyone,
I got a call recently from a company called Wilber, saying I owe them money for an insurance-related matter. But the amount they’re asking for is way more than what I actually owe. This happened in Texas, and it caught me off guard.
I tried asking for a breakdown of the charges, but it still doesn’t add up. It feels shady, and now I’m just wondering—has anyone else in Texas dealt with something similar from Wilber?
Did you resolve it? Did they back off or escalate it? Just trying to figure out if I’m being taken advantage of or if this is some standard (but aggressive) practice. Any advice or shared experience would really help.
Thanks in advance!
Admiral - 18 months since accident and still no excess back!!
Location: UK
I had an accident in December of 2023, which was third parties fault totally. Unfortunately they decided to completely ignore all correspondence from my insurance company and their own for as long as they could with deadlines, and drag this whole process right out, then at the last minute dispute it. This went on and on back and forth until November 2024 (almost a year after the accident and after the threat of court proceedings) when they decided to admit fault at last, and agree to pay. The solicitors that took over the claim for us emailed to let us know, there will be no court and our excess will be returned to us shortly, great! Except it’s April 2025, and we’ve still received nothing, the last email reply from solicitor I received was in January, telling me the third parties solicitor had assured them they had requested payment from third party. Since then radio silence from solicitors and no reply. I know it’s only £400 excess but it’s a matter of principle to us and with the current cost of living we definitely need this money back! Does anybody have any legal advice or insurance advice? As I thought admiral (third party insurer) would have to refund us our excess within a certain timeframe surely..? 18 months is mad! Thank you everybody in advance for your help, you’re all amazing!!
Progressive - Need advice, what should I do?
Due to a pipe backing up, and magically fixing itself, our house flooded. We have been out of our house since the beginning of February. We have ASI thru progressive. Our insurance adjuster said he was going to pay the company directly for mitigation, and then send us a check so we could pay the company for restoration. We have been waiting for weeks on when and how much they are going to pay us. The only time I hear from our adjuster is when I call to let him know that our hotel stay needs to be extended. I’m trying to be patient, but I’ve been trying to reach out and can’t get in touch with him and his voicemail is full. We are living in a hotel with two dogs, and a cat. Our dogs are stressed, and ill, they have been to the vet for this. One is actually there now. We are eating fast food every night, and I just REALLY want to be home. I need to know how much they are paying so I know how much to pull out of our 401k to replace the deductible and appreciation (?), and this process takes time. I have tried to view the claim online and nothing comes up when I put in the information. What do I do from here? I want to be HOME. THANKS!
Medi-Cal - Medi-Cal switched to SSI P??????
Hello all, I am here hoping to find some clarity as to what happened and if I did anything wrong.
For context I am chronically ill and have ESRD (end stage renal disease), I am on dialysis 3 times a week, awaiting a kidney transplant.
For the last 3 years I have had Medi-Cal and it was handled through California DPSS. This has been the case since I applied. Even when I went into kidney failure and went on dialysis, my medi-cal was still handled by DPSS. I even subsequently applied for Social Security Disability and still my Medi-cal was handled through DPSS. I was just hospitalized last month for a week, so I know that my insurance was definitely still active at that point.
Well today, I called my PCP to make an appt and was told my insurance was no longer active. After HOURS of standing in line at the DPSS office, I find out that my medi-cal was transferred to Social Security at the end of March - Without giving me any notice: not even so much as a letter.
I’m baffled… I now have to restart the process of picking out a medical group and all that stuff… how did this happen?? Why?? And did I do something wrong????
Anthem - Missed employers open enrollment
I am a 33y/o female in NYC and found out today that my enrollment into medical insurance through my employer didn’t save. i have not been covered for the last 3 months and im worried something could happen where i need it. I just looked at quotes for individual coverage and at my income level of $140k the lowest cost plan was $700 per month. I’m getting married in August and since that’s a qualifying life event i’m wondering if i have any options other than get legally married early or pay the $700. i’ve reached out to HR for other enrollment related things in the past and they wouldn’t budge in the slightest so don’t expect any workarounds with my companies insurance which is Anthem. Advice desperately needed :(
State Farm - What's the best alternative to State Farm?
I'm shopping around for car insurance. I'm 38F and never had anything but State Farm, but I was rear ended in an accident last year and had a mostly bad experience dealing with customer service and claims. My parents had a life insurance policy for my mother. When she passed away the office somehow marked me as the deceased party, which also lead to me having to "prove" that I was not dead. Keeping in my mind my mother and I share a last name and had our insurances at the same office/broker, but we have completely separate policies. When I told the agent that is what happened, she was combative even though the date of the change corresponded with my mother's death. After my accident, there were significant delays in getting my payment because of some issues they were having with setting up digital payments for me. All around bad experience with customer service and claims who were not empathetic or helpful. When I switched my insurance to a new agent's office for my new car, they put the incorrect financing information on my policy. Had to call several times to change. Realized that they had the wrong mailing address and garage address, even though I had also changed these. I, no joke, had to call on four separate occasions to try to change my garage address. They kept telling me it would be reflected on my policy within a month, but when I checked, my old garage address was still there. Conveniently, my rate at my new address is cheaper.
I will say prior to the past couple years I had great experiences with State Farm. It seems lately to have maybe gone down hill, and I am a pretty dang patient person.
It's not all about price for me either. I'm happy to change to somewhere with better service even if slightly more expensive.
Does anyone actually have a car insurance company they can recommend based on good experiences and/or customer service?
Fetch - Is it really worth it?
I’m paying close to $190 a month for my 7 year old medium sized dog and 8 year old small dog. They go to the vet maybe once a year and I figured it could be worth it as a preventative measure but it’s honestly really expensive. I’ve been reading about prices increasing too so I don’t know what to do… i have fetch
