2. My insurance has tried to cancel me every month since it changed to an ACA policy

They have two separate charges, one for the plan and a small $5 charge that must be paid for "juvenile dentist coverage". I have the autopay feature, which means it is subtracted from my account every month. But for the last six months, that little charge has not gone through. Meaning I get a paper bill. And they threaten to cancel my insurance immediately if I don't pay. So every month, I spend about three hours on the phone fixing the problem.

I fucking hate insurance companies.
