Location: Texas Mind you we have been a returning customer for the last 9 years to the same salesman at the same dealership. He has always gone above and beyond with taking care of us with exceptional customer service to the point of even driving 2hrs to deliver our last leased vehicle in our driveway. So now the dilemma; we recently returned 2022 lease and signed a new lease for a 2025 at Infiniti dealership February 1st. After all the paperwork is completed we get keys for 2025 vehicle and drive home. Fast forward to February 22nd I see the reoccurring payment of $975 from the old 2022 leased vehicle. Then on 26th another one for $1130 for new 2025 lease which was expected. Wife contacts salesman and says he will look into it with Infiniti finance department. After a couple of days he tells us that Infiniti finance for the old lease had not yet received dealership check for the vehicle payoff, then proceeds to tell us after they receive it we would be receiving a reimbursement check in the mail “around” the same amount of $975 from old lease that we are no longer in possession of. Wife contacts Infiniti finance and they basically tell us that the dealership is at fault and it’s out of their hands. Now we are in April and salesman telling us he will get with GSM, but GSM is somehow always busy (out of office at auctions, yadda yadda). We have yet to receive the “check” or any further information on the matter from dealership. This our 4th vehicle through this dealership with no issues at all and now this. What route do I take? Anyone else ever have this problem? Do I take legal action over $975?

Ins: State Farm I got into a wreck that I was deemed at-fault for in May 2024. My auto policy at that time renewed from Feb 2024-August 2024. In August 2024, they renewed me again and raised my rate (obviously). Then in December 2024, I received a letter from State Farm saying they weren’t renewing me (Feb 2025-Aug 2025) for being high-risk and I had to find new coverage. So my question is: Why did they renew me again in August 2024? Why didn’t they just non-renew me at that point?

Location: New Mexico, USA Hello, I work at a bed n breakfast. I make $15/hr, work about 20-25 hours per week with some fluctuations, 3-4 days per week, and will not work for 2 months out of the year when it is closed. I live nearby in a camper off grid. No criminal history. My employer pays in cash and does not offer health insurance or any benefits. I am working to apply for medicaid since my application for insurance through the marketplace flagged as possibly eligible for medicaid. They said I need a letter verifying my hours and wage from my employer. When I asked my employer for this, she said she didn't want to because of not wanting to draw attention to the business. So now I'm stuck without health insurance and wondering what to do. I am thinking that she may not be running the business legally on her end after this since she said she didnt want to have anyone from the state asking about the business. I am wondering, if I contact medicaid and inform them of this, will the business be audited and ruined? She is very vindictive and I just want to be cautious about my next move. I want health insurance of course, but it is a very rural area and the only business for 35 miles in any direction, so a lot of people rely on it. Should I just quit? Should I just get coverage through the marketplace? I don't really have much money so I would like to try and limit my expenses. Thank you for any information or advice.

Age: 40+ State: California Income: 0 (unemployed) tl;dr: I had some election snafu made by the COBRA management company where they just re-enrolled me in PPO which was $900/mo. I opted to go for a cheaper Kaiser option for $300/mo. Somehow I see when they fixed it, my PPO still shows covered and I have nothing regarding being enrolled in Kaiser... what should i do? Longer: So in my COBRA payment portal it shows I'm paying for Kaiser (cheaper) option and I have been paying for this coverage since the start of 2025. I haven't had to use it and I am just now needing to refill a prescription. Also, my old company switched up their insurance at the start of 2025, so even if I stayed on my PPO it would have changed providers. Anyways now that I need to refill a prescription I started looking through the docs I received and realized I never got any sort of Kaiser welcome packet but did receive a PPO insurance card, so I figured I would register on their site to see if it would let me. Surprisingly it did and the PPO shows I am covered. Now, normally I am one to do the right thing, but insurance is inherently evil... so part of me wants to go fill my RX using this PPO coverage and see what happens. Is this a bad idea? I definitely cant afford for them to go back and charge me an extra $600/mo. What do you all think?

I own four vehicles. They’re all older and there are frequent repairs, so I rotate through them. My 24-year-old son also rotates through them, but mostly uses only one of them. We own that vehicle together. Both our names are on the title. He rents an apartment in a different city an hour from me. My name is on his lease as they would not rent to him without having much rental history. He was required to have renter’s insurance, so as one of the renters, my name is also on the renter’s insurance policy. My auto insurance company just notified me that my policy will be canceled because “Not all vehicles are regularly garaged at your household. Therefore, this risk is unacceptable and we cannot continue your policy.” My question is, is there any point in me arguing with them? I rent the property so why can’t I keep one of my vehicles there? It’s in the same state, only an hour away. What do people do who have college students who are away at school? What do people do who own multiple properties and keep vehicles at both of them? Is there anything I can do or should I start looking for a different company? Are there any companies that allow multiple garages? Thank you for any help. *Edit* my son‘s permanent address is my home address, if that matters.

Are there any stated income HELOCs out there? I dragged my feet on UMPQUA which auto approved up to 100k, but when I finally got around to applying, they changed their DTI from 50 to 40% and their estimated DTI for me came 38-43% so it triggered stips. I don't need a HELOC, but would like to open one just in case. Figure is popular, but requires you to draw the full applied amount for, and they charge you 5% off that (big no thanks). I have about $200k in room for 85% CLTV, but I'm ok with max limits of $100k for auto approvals. Anything full doc is not worth my time, so I don't want to go down those avenues, and I don't want anything that requires a draw at open that you get a fat charge on. Thanks!

Hello people, I am a bit of a pickle right now :( I have been trying to cancel my Pets Best subscription/insurance for a good few days with no luck, the main reason why is because their prices have got up by a lot, and it simply isn’t in my budget atm, plus (knock on wood), my two cats are perfectly healthy besides the usual meowing because they aren’t allowed to eat every 5 mins. I have called them so many times but I have been put on hold for 25-30 mins. It is really frustrating because I am worried they will charge me despite low funds in my account, making my account go into the negatives. And of course, me not wanting to pay 59 bucks a month when it was originally 47 bucks a month when I first joined almost 2 years ago. If anyone has any advice, please share.

I have read some prior threads for this but they are from a year ago and I'm curious if there have been any changes. Background: I have had UHC and used Optum for my specialty pharmacy for years. My specialty medication is a biologic with no generic equivalent. The manufacturer provides me with both a copay card and a payment card. My deductible has consistently been met in January every year using the payment card, and then the copay card picks up the copay for each month for the rest of the year. Situation: This year, the manufacturer payment card was processed as usual and applied towards my deductible, however, they went back a few weeks later and reversed it from my deductible. When I called them, they said nothing has changed and the payment card, as a form of manufacturer assistance, cannot be applied towards my deductible, despite that having always been the case. Based on what I have read about an HHS ruling, they are required to apply this towards my deductible as there is not a generic available. I filed an appeal and was denied. My employer plan is likely self funded, but from what I have read, that should not matter. Has anyone gotten a resolution to this issue?

I pay my Home Insurance through my Mortgage Bill every month from there my lender pays my Home Insurance. For the second year in a row they have failed to pay the Insurance company (Progressive). Unfortunately it renews in July and if the payment isn’t remitted by the first from the Mortgage Lender it lapses. My neighborhood goes crazy on the 4th everyone and anyone capable of flicking a bic lights fireworks. Should the payment not be submitted by the first and it lapses; worst case scenario something happens on the 4th would the Lender be responsible for any damages being they failed to pay the insurance bill?
