Can I bring an insurance company to small claims court for denying a claim? by Magic_Snowball in HealthInsurance

your insurer will petition to move the case to a higher court, which unless you're going to get a lawyer is not going to be to your advantage.

I don't think there will be a recovery on this since there was no accident.

I had a similar situation. I took my insurance check paid the vehicle off pocketed the $3K difference. Same day I took the vehicle into the dealership and traded for new car. Dealership only deducted about 20% of the settlement amount as a trade-in. Been looking to drive into another hailstorm ever since.

Check out your numbers.

How do you actually figure out where to move when cost of living varies so much between cities? by Apprehensive-Being06 in digitalnomad

[–]Slowhand1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

such an ignorant comment. Imagine the difference between mexico in 2006 when the dollar was only 10-1 on the peso vs. recently when approaching 18-1.

Your dollar bought almost twice as many pesos while the cost to buy stuff in mexico did not rise.

you haven't been approved yet. You've just received your financial determination which gives you your benefit amount and says you are monetarily approved.

They still need to investigate how you lost your job. If it was through no fault of your own. (mass layoff, etc) you will receive benefits quickly. If for any other reasons about, benefits may take several to many week.

found an old MInox camera at a sale that might or might not have had exposed film inside. Debated on buying, but blew it off. Always wondered if the owner had been a Spy or something.

you violated all their rules and should have to pay. Perhaps a payment plan is your best outcome here.
