Update: Thank you for all the responses and suggestions. This is my first time ever dealing with insurance so was a little confused. I believe I have figured out what the issue was. I was seeing an in network gynecologist and they requested I get an ultrasound. The gynecologist had me scheduled with the hospital but said I can cancel and find another provider to try and find a cheaper place. I found an imaging clinc that says online that they take Aetna and so I scheduled with this place. They took my insurance information and I called them 3 times prior to my appointment to confirm the price of the service. They had stated the service was $245 every time I called and that I wouldn't owe anything more then that. I went to the clinic and before getting the ultrasound done again asked about the price. They said it would be $245 and so I swiped my card. I asked again if I would get another bill later and they said no that this is all that I would owe. I did the ultrasound and before I left I had them print the bill. They printed it for me and it shows that the good faith estimate was $245, which is what I paid upfront. A month later I received a bill from the clinic for $400 and upon checking the insurance claim I see $400 going to deductible and another $401 saying "pending or not payable" with my total share being $801. It seems my insurance is not covering anything. I had no idea that they would not cover anything or that this place was "out of network" as it literally says they take Aetna. I was reassured multiple times that the $245 was all that I would owe. I told them many times that I would cancel my appointment if there is the possibility that I would be charged more. The good estimate bill doesn't even show the actual price of the procedure nor how much my insurance would cover. I am so mad. How do I debate? Do I file a complaint? It also seems like my insurance is unaware that I've already paid $245. Please help!!! Another $800 bill on top of the $245 is insane.

Wife got into an accident. She was stationary at an intersection. Other car turned into her. Our car 2013 Elantra suffered a cracked bumperl We took it to Maaco ..they estimated 2115 or so. Progressive accepted responsibility.

Has anybody been able to buy one or get a quote. I am trying and while insurance companies website mention they exist - I am not able to get a quote and the call center agents are equally clueless. Edit - Geico Licensed Insurance Agent said that they are not issuing any NNO (Named Non Owner) Policy currently. So lets see how easy it is to get one.

State Farm is discontinuing the policy for my 3-unit multifamily rental property. My umbrella policy is also with State Farm. My agent told me umbrella will cover the rental property if a new policy I find is A-rated (i.e. by AM best, JD power, etc) and underlying liability limit of $500k is purchased. Is it really true that the new policy for my rental property must be an A-rated insurer? What if it is less than an A-rating or not even rated at all? Insurance is insurance, isn't it? It is becoming extremely difficult to find a good, quality top-rated insurer that will write a new policy for rental property (building) that is 70 years old.

Arizona - My homeowners renewal policy just arrived with a 1% shed/other structure inclusion. I thought this was a mistake/rollover from our previous house that did have a storage shed. When I called travelers (through our company discounted rate line), the agent said they cannot remove the shed coverage as it is state law - even though I don’t have a structure? He actually got frustrated with me as he’s had to argue this with several policy owners? Is the agent just wildly wrong? What on Earth would I claim against this part of the policy when I don’t have an additional structure? Did AZ pass a really dumb law and I missed it? AZ Homeowners Ins Agent Redditors, please help me make sense of this!

Like home and car insurance in California, looks like Umbrella premiums have gone through roof. Is that true for others in Cali? I'm with State Farm. $2M umbrella was a few hundred dollars last year; renewing now at $2400/year (no claims, no accidents, no lawsuits). 3 cars; 3 drivers. Own home. No pets, not much liability. Anyone else got this sort of increase year over year?

Location: Texas. I’m beyond frustrated. $700 was stolen from an Apple gift card in my Apple account, and Apple is refusing to refund the money. I’ve contacted support multiple times, and every advisor says the same thing — they can’t connect me to a supervisor, and there’s nothing more they can do. I provided all the evidence: the gift card purchase receipt, my account history, and the fact that the fraudulent charges happened without my authorization. Yet Apple won’t escalate the issue or involve their Apple ID Security team. I know gift card fraud is a common issue, but this money was stolen from my account, and I feel completely stonewalled. Has anyone had success getting Apple to actually take action on something like this? Any advice on how to escalate this further? This is seriously making me rethink using Apple services at all. $700 is a huge amount to just write off.

Our puppy went to a few puppy socials in the past week. Today he started having a loud dry cough, so we took him to the vet. The vet diagnosed him with a minor respiratory illness. The vet wasn’t concerned because he was still eating well and had no change in energy level, but still prescribed him some cough suppressant. We mistakenly filed a claim to Trupanion at the vet to try to cover the medication. However, we were on day 28 of the 30 day waiting period and Trupanion denied the claim. Furthermore, Trupanion now saying that “cough” is a pre-existing condition and we will no longer be able to submit any claims for “cough” in the future. I saw that some insurance providers delineate between curable and non-curable pre-existing conditions. Does anyone know if Trupanion does this? Additionally, is there any way to get the “cough” removed as a pre-existing condition from Trupanion or are we screwed? Thank you!

I’m moving to a new state and currently have renters’ insurance with State Farm. I filed a claim for a theft in my building a couple of months ago, where a large amount of my personal items were stolen from what was supposed to be a secure mailroom. Last Friday, I contacted a State Farm agent in my new state to set up a policy for my next apartment. After taking the weekend to get back to me, she said she had spoken with the underwriting department and they couldn’t write me a policy because of that claim. She specifically said I couldn’t have an active claim in the last **24–36 months**. That doesn’t make sense to me. Why would the rule be a range instead of a clear cutoff? Is this standard insurance practice, and I’m just unfamiliar with it, or did she give me incorrect info? The vague timeline feels odd, and I’m wondering if she was just making it up or if she has the information wrong. I ended up going with a different insurance company anyway, but just wondering if she was BSing

Is there a way to dispute your cars value ? Insurance gave me a value of $12,000(I think that’s HIGH) for my 17’ Chevy Cruze with close to 180,000 miles on it + body damage . I was hit by usps and the damage is roughly $6,000-6,500 so we tried to get usps to pay for the damage but they won’t exceed $5,400 because my cars not worth more than that to them (which I agree) I’ve personally been saying since I got the repair estimate costs that it’s totaled. Kellybluebook value is about $5,300, a car dealership gave me $6,000 for the value so HOW is insurance $6,000 more than the 3 of those values. If usps won’t even give me the amount of damage shouldn’t my Isnurance reconsider their value ?
