Location: cook county, Illinois I was recently involved in a car accident. I was stopped at a stop sign, behind the white line and on my side of the road. I was waiting to turn left. Another driver who was driving on the perpendicular road ended up making a left hand turn on the road I was on. She ended up hitting me by driving head on into me. After she hit me I approached her vehicle and in a non aggressive way (however I was irritable) I asked why she hit me/ how she did not see me? She claimed she was distracted by her daughter and simply did not see me and hit me head on. She was very apologetic and admitted fault. I contacted non emergency police to come to the scene so we could exchange info. When police arrived they took our statements and the report states I was at the stop sign and driver admitted not seeing me and hitting me. The report also states I was not obstructing any road ways or her lane of travel. I figured this was pretty clear cut. However I recently found out through my insurance company that the other drivers insurance is now denying taking liability and claiming I am at fault because the driver is now reporting to her insurance company that I was in her lane and not giving her enough room to make the turn. Even though police report states the opposite and she admitted that she hit me to police because she didn’t see me. The police also stated in their report that she was at fault. The husband of the driver who was not present at the scene reached out to me via text the day after the accident to apologize for his wife hitting my car and requesting to fix my car by not going through insurance because he did not want his rates to go up. I did not respond to his text and simply just started the claim through my insurance. I am speculating this angered him and he is now encouraging his wife to change the story to now find me at fault. I obtained a copy of the police report and I am currently waiting on the body cam footage from the police that recorded our statements that night of the accent as proof that the other driver admitted fault to submit to my insurance since the claim is now in the arbitration process. I also sent screenshots of the text message the husband sent me as further proof as an admission of guilt to my insurance. I am curious, I know at this point the insurance companies are dueling this out and will present my proof to a third party and the decisions will eventually be made to determine who is at fault if I am understanding that correctly. But is there anything else that can be done? Can I go after the other driver for providing fraudulent information/ lying to her insurance? Or will that be determined in the arbitration process? Her insurance claimed they did a “careful investigation” and are denying my claim because they find me at fault. However it does not sound like her insurance obtained the police report so I am unclear as to how they performed a “careful investigation”. Lastly, is anyone able to provide any insight into the likelihood of me winning this arbitration case and if there is anything else I can/should do?

Location: Oklahoma Long story kind of short, I was in a car accident on Oct.4th, and the other party was at fault. At the scene they acknowledged they were at fault and their insurance looked up to date. At the moment, I felt that calling the police for a report was not worth the hassle, a mistake I know now. While at the scene the driver was on the phone with their mother and told them they were on their phone at the time of the accident, which she later denies. Additionally the drivers mother wanted to speak to me on the phone and was very adamant not to go through insurance and that they wanted to pay out of pocket, which I refused, I didn't think much of this comment in the moment but is important later. I filed a claim with the insurance they provided and a few days later they told me they were not insured at the time of the accenet. My father reached out to the drivers father as he is the person on the title of the vehicle, and this is when we found out the drivers father is the Chief of Police for a small town bordering my city where the crash occurred which is in the same county. At this point we were given updated insurance from the driver and I made the claim with their insurance, which was denied as they were denying what happened at the crash. Some context to add to this is that this was a new driver and had their license for only about a month and were 16 and were heading to their first day of work at their new job. I filled with my insurance who sent it to arbitration, and it was radio silence for 4 months and they would not even return my calls, thanks Progressive. I called today and told them I need an update today, and the new rep I got was amazing and told me everything I needed to know and they should have told me months ago. Arbitration determined the other party was at fault, which was obvious from the damage, and they were not insured at the time of the crash. So it turns out they tried to buy insurance right after the crash and did not tell anyone. Progressive wants to send them to collections to get some of my deductible back, but I would like to get my full deductible and loss of value (at the minimum). So my question is is small claims court enough for the $2k deductible and $2k loss of value, and do I need a lawyer? I have already waited 6 months, and while if I need a Lawyer I want them to get paid, but I feel like I shouldn't have to pay legal fees for this especially due to the criminal behaviour on their part.

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.

Hi all - I was wondering what the likelihood that my Appeal that I finally sent in will be successful or if I'm just going to continue getting the runaround from United Healthcare. At this stage is it worth doing anything else (or do I have to wait until the Appeal plays out?) Some details... The claim that I filed with United Healthcare had all the correct, relevant, and necessary information including the in-network Tax ID, the Practice’s pertinent information, the doctor’s name, itemized receipts (two – one paid with FSA and one paid with credit card), and other pertinent claim-related information. United Healthcare processed the claim as out-of-network, but the Practice is in network, which made me receive +/- $3,000 less in reimbursement than I should have (due to that money going to an out-of-network deductible). I have called United Healthcare more than 15 times now across 3 months to see what else is needed and to fix the wrongly coded EOB and I’m always told that United Healthcare made a processing error and will fix it – but it never happens months and months later. The EOB erroneously states that this was an out of network event, but everything was in-network, and I have coverage for the procedure on my plan. Once again, every time I have called United Healthcare, they have told me that I’m right, that they are ‘backing out’ of the old claim and will fix it, and every time nothing has been fixed. I just called earlier this week, and the 15th advocate I spoke with (after taking 20 minutes to look over all the times I called and notes) said I was 100% absolutely correct, I should have received an EOB saying it was in-network, and the determination was wrong, but folks keep coding it – inexplicably – as out of network. She encouraged me to appeal....which I just did. Expectations of what may come next? Thank you.

So I have had AmFam insurance through Costco (live in Wisconsin) for a couple of yrs which comes with with a few perks that I thought would be helpful; non-deductible coverage for 1k to fix a window and $100 for locksmith if you get locked out. Well, in the span of 6 months I ended up using both of these but didn't know they get filled as claims against my insurance. Fast forward 6 months, and I just a notice of Non-Renewal because I have had 3 claims in the last 3yrs (I've a claim bcuz of lost baggage 3yrs ago). I'm calling around and getting a lot of refusals and getting a bit scared that I won't find coverage for the house. I tried appealing the decision but that didn't work either Is there any way I can drop these AmFam claims? Or known companies that would still cover here?

Fraudulent charges trying to get them resolved since October. Last month I finally got them resolved and they sent me a letter about the claim. Closed the account, 0 balance. Today they took back a credit for 78.20 and now the account shows a balance even though it is closed I cannot pay it! Already brought in CFPB!

Hello, I just found this sub. I am looking at getting pet insurance. I have a 3 month old cavapoo. I was going to go with fetch until I saw all these horror stories. I am in Canada. Any suggestions? I got quoted $108 with trupanion. Seems high. Fetch was like $60 with the wellness. I notice they all jack up premiums based on whatever yearly too. Even if trupanion says it's not based on age, they can blame it on whatever. I asked them and they said they're is not cap on how much premiums can increase. I understand it's a gamble. Might never need it but I want the piece of mind of having coverage.

Has anyone successfully moved their IRA from Inspira to Vanguard with an "in kind" transfer? It's impossible to reach anyone via phone at Inspira for help!

So I did away with my previous wellness plans and went with Metlife insurance. At first they were great approving regular visits quickly and I was reimbursed quickly. But I've noticed since before December now they take extremely long to even assign the claims and then review them. It always seems like I have to reach out to them in which they always need the Doctors notes before they will approve anything. My pupps have gotten ear infections, ruptured glands, and upset stomach with diarrhea this year and it has taken several weeks and phone calls to get the claim processed and a couple I am still waiting on. So I am thinking of canceling them. Would love recommendations of a better company with a better app as well.

Brief background: My boss lives in a private gated community. Last week a resident neighbour was driving out of the grounds, and as she was going through the gate one of our staff walked in front of the gate. I honestly don't know what happened but her car was damaged as the gate closed on her car. The neighbour said our team member was at fault. The gate mechanism is absolutely faulty and to blame. My boss said just to settle it and we paid her 1k for the damage (she got a garage quote). Now the community public liability insurance is saying that because we amicably settled with the Third Party, no claim by us will be entertained. I know that by rights the neighbour should have claimed on the community insurance, but my boss just wanted it dealt with and didn't want animosity with a neighbour. Do we have any recourse with the insurance company? My next plan will be legal action against the property managers, but I'd prefer not to go down that road! Edit: spelling
