Not So Pro 3

im saying when its time for insurance to pay out
they are prompt when being paid but small print allows them to say we are not paying for this or for that
and they get by with it
and they have help from the politicians to make their excuses not to pay become law
when im shopping for cheaper insurance i keep with the larger names right now i have allstate and when they go raising rates ill go somewhere else
the last insurance claim i had was 30 years ago along with the last speeding ticket

also i dont have a bank loan but state mandated *B-S.... like
underinsured or uninsured we have to pay for that never gets a ticket or license taken

Yup, yup, and yup

Well just an update.
I looked at the vehicle, I wasn’t really impressed, as there was a lot more paint chips with rust and a few more dings.

I was still sort of keen, so I called the insurance co /underwriters who are dealing with the claim.
I asked about my claim and I weren’t happy with the offer. I got told they are not going to buy this vehicle as yours was not new ?, we just give the money.
So I explained I only had the vehicle 10months and did 6.5k miles I can’t buy a vehicle for the price your offering
So I was told to fwd the purchase invoice to them and they would look at it again.
So I said ok and thanked him and put the phone down……& said
GFY

Fuggin insurance adjusters, not a decent soul among them.

We have been with USAA since 1987

They USED TO BE awesome

They have gone to only paying for generic parts instead of OEM

It wasn’t that long ago we had a $250 deductible but now it’s $1,000 or the premium more than doubles

Out of control

Boy I could tell you about my experience with the new USAA. Been with them since 1987. Looking at other options because DAMM

All insurance is a bet, they are getting that you pay the premiums and never need the insurance. The problem is they have actuarial tables telling them how much to charge and they can depend on X profits. You don't have that! We have been without health insurance for 9 years now. Our family premiums were $12k+ per year with a certain out of pocket maximum. Potentially we could have had to pay up to $24k in any calendar year if something happened.

HSA's have rules where the money you put in can only be used for medical expenses as well as other things which I did not like. We decided to put $12k a year into a savings type account that does earn something, yet allows us penalty free use of it. We put the money away after taxes. So far we have not needed it, and it continues to be available. Going to start diverting the future savings into something else. We both have portfolios and 401k's, as well as Roth's.

Inflation has us rethinking some things. We planned for 5% annual inflation, but lately it has been much higher.

Homeowners insurance is just another scam that we do not participate in. No mortgage makes this an option, but we keep our yard clear of fuel should a fire come to town. Yes we are gambling, but so is everyone else. By paying premiums, you are just betting on red instead of black.

It will not change, no legislation is going to be passed reigning in insurance companies. Nor are any politicians going to fix anything. They will take from someone for something, to Garner favor with someone else, all the while blaming xyz for it not working. We are all on our own on this. I have no answers, just pointing out reality in a depressing way.

Sorry for the long winded rant, it is not political. Your party, whomever that is, will not be making any effort on anything that would directly benefit the American people. They will make sound bites to keep the sheep distracted.

Hope everyone has had a nice day. Randy, @Mastermind, feel free to delete this if you need to. Thanks for letting me get it off my chest. I feel better now.
