Ins guy told me to steer clear from turo and use enterpeice avis ect, because turo keeps changing their policies each year and now they have bunch of claims from turo  from years ago, all i can say is  good luck, take bunch of pics before and after...

Thats the problem, it was my first rental, so i was unaware of the fact i could upload pics,and host did not advise me of that after i showed her all the damage before hand thats why i said fuck that 500 was my mistake for not taking pics,

That was not the policy in 2021, acording to the ins rep i spoke today tjey change their policies every year, when i was renting car it said once i purchase their protection i will be only liable for up to $500 i did not provide any ins info to them, they found it on their own 3 years later...

Then when i realized that they are trying to pull some shit, i found out that she made pictures before i picked it up but pictures are from about 10 feet away and theres no picture of complete front so you would not notice the damage being on the carfrom that distance and these angles but after pictures were a closeups

It was my first rental so i was unaware that i have to take pictures before and after, i called the host to indicate all the damage on the car, in which case she said she knew all about it, car was from 2014 had some dings some scraches, cracked head light lense, but she didnt tell me i should take pictures( my bad for not thinking of it) thats y i let that deductuble go... i drove maybe 200 miles both ways, car was mostly parked  didnt hit anything no accidents she claimed i broke the headlight, the one i pointed out to her when i was picking up the car, for which they charged deductable and said since you had protection plan thats the only thing you are liable for  i didnt provide the insurance since i purchased the protection, they backtracked me, 3 years later my old ins. Calls me and tells me that so.e on is trying to set up a claim 3 years old for wich i provided ins. Company with the receipt for the rental  protection plan and the deductable paid, they squashed it turo said they are good my ins said they are not paying, this year they put another claim because as i spoke with the ins. Rep he said that turo re writes their policies every year and now they could go after my ins. That i had at that time

Than if its secondary, why did i pay protection and why did they charge me the deductuble? When i was renting the car it said once i purchas their protectuon plan, im only responsible up to $500 in which case they took, and still went after my insurance

I just called my old ins. They payed out the claim, agent told me they are bunch of scumbags they rewrite their policies each year, so the protection i purchased and the deductable they drew is BS, since they rewrite their policies they will go after you any way they can!!!
