7. I have an uncle that was in the same sort of situation with them.

It worked out after a whole lot of back and forth between him, his job's HR and the insurance company. I suggested that then on he send the payments certified mail withe letter tracking. It's beyond unfortunate that an extra 8-10+ dollars needed to be spent to keep these guys honest.

He had to go out again a few years ago and the same sort of thing happened with his check being cashed but they had "no record" of it. The difference between this time and that was his ability to show without doubt that the payment had arrived at their doorstep, was signed for, and was on time.

I was talking to him recently and he told me about a friend of his that was forced to go to social services for temporary insurance because a number of her payments(while cashed by them as stated by her bank) had went missing. She wasn't notified they weren't missing until a visit went to the doctors office ended in her being informed at the desk that her insurance was deactivated; 2 months ago. The insurance company offer to her was to pay all of what she owed while they "investigated the situation".


I don't even know what to say about this particular provision. This is evilness pure and simple. People are going to die and they don't care.
