                  BBB File Number: 20640986

      Dear Disputes Resolution Specialist:

      We are in receipt of your offices inquiry. We have reviewed the complainant's inquiry to your department, which was submitted on September 25, 2023. I have provided the information you requested below. We have had the opportunity to review our claim file and based on our investigation, we determined that our driver was the proximate cause of the loss.

      We assigned a physical damage appraiser to inspect the partys vehicle and an estimate was written in the amount of $1,158.07.  The party advised of several mechanical issues and damage to the right front bumper, and a broken right vanity mirror, that she claimed was related to this loss. 

      From our initial inspection, we deemed these damages as unrelated to the loss, and a partial denial letter was sent to the party.  We advised her that she would need to authorize a diagnostic test to determine if the claimed medical issues were related.  If it were determined that these issues were related to this loss, we would pay for the diagnostic review.  If the issues were not related to the loss, then she would be responsible for the diagnostic charges. 


      Our physical damage appraiser completed a thorough inspection of the rear of her vehicle. There was no additional damage that would support the impact being hard enough to cause damages throughout the vehicle, up to and including the front end, or any mechanical issues. We again suggested that the vehicle be towed to a dealership or mechanical shop for a diagnostic.  To our knowledge, she did not take her vehicle to a dealership or mechanical shop for the suggested diagnostics.

      We were advised by her attorney at the time that she would like to settle her property damage claim for the amount of our original estimate. On March 15,2022, a payment was issued in the amount of $1,158.07.  We also advised her attorney at the time that we would compensate her for a rental vehicle for loss-related repairs, we have yet to receive a rental receipt.

      Regarding Ms. ******* injury claim, on June 07, 2022, we mailed the party a letter regarding the applicable bodily injury statute of limitations.  We also mailed the party a letter requesting that she send all of her medical bills, records, and documentation of any other loss she may have incurred, including wage loss. We also provided her with a medical authorization that could be completed and sent back to us so we could assist her with obtaining the medical records and billing.

      She did not provide us with either her medical bills and records nor a completed medical authorization that would allow us to request this information on her behalf. 

      As the party did not settle her claim or file a lawsuit within the allotted time, our view is that her bodily injury claim has expired based on the statute of limitations.

      Should you have any questions or require any additional information, please contact me at the number below. 

      Sincerely,

      I was in a car accident on 7/24/2023. I filed a claim with my insurance AAA but the case was closed due to the other person involved claiming full resposibility. I have reached out to AAA many times with no return phone call or email. Today is 9/20/2023 and they still have no resovlved the case and the claims adjuster for the other claimaint ******************* has not reached out with anything since 8/3/2023. I am at an end; I am not sure what else i can do anymore. When my car was deemed a total loss; the adjuster did not even call or email to tell me anything. I had to hear it from ******************. I am wanting this issue to be resolved as soon as possible.

      I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding the racist and discriminatory behavior, deceptive practices, and threatening conduct I have experienced from my AAA insurance agent, *****************************, based at the *******************. My interactions with her have been deeply unsettling, and it is crucial that I share these experiences.Racist and Discriminatory Behavior Targeting Language Barrier *****************************, who is well aware of my mother's limited English proficiency, has displayed a disturbing pattern of racist and discriminatory behavior. She has taken advantage of my mother's language barrier to deceive her into purchasing an insurance policy that was only valid for one month while misleadingly stating that it would last for approximately three years.********, *********'s discriminatory actions extend beyond the initial transaction. After my mother purchased the insurance policy, she has consistently refused to provide any assistance or answer any questions my mother has had. This deliberate neglect is a clear manifestation of discriminatory behavior, leaving my mother, who primarily communicates in Chinese, without the support she should rightfully receive.Exploitative and Deceptive Practices with Verifiable Evidence In 2019, ***************************** informed us via email that she could be our agent based on our request, which we promptly made by stating, "I request ***************************** to be my agent." This understanding was confirmed when she sent us a receipt and a confirmation email indicating that she was indeed our agent for an earthquake policy. The receipt explicitly stated that the earthquake policy would be valid from November 1, 2019, to December 2023.However, a recent inquiry with AAA's customer service revealed that the policy ********* claimed was valid for three years had actually expired after just one month. This misrepresentation, coupled with her discriminatory behavior, is deeply concerning and raises serious questions about her professionalism and ethical conduct. We have the receipt as concrete evidence to support our claims.Lack of Responsiveness and Threatening Behavior Toward Me, Her Client I would like to emphasize that I am also ********************************* client. Despite this, I have experienced the same lack of responsiveness and threatening behavior from her. Last Friday, I attempted to contact her around 3:00 PM. I initially called her cell phone (assuming she had my number saved), but there was no response. I then called her work number, identified myself, and she promptly claimed to be at lunch and promised to call me back. Unfortunately, she never returned the call.Furthermore, when I informed her that I intended to file a complaint and shared my experiences in a group chat, several individuals recounted similar experiences with *********. In response, she sent me a message threatening legal action with "??,??????," which translates to "Be careful, I will *** you for defamation."Conclusion In conclusion, ********************************* behavior as my AAA insurance agent at the ******** Branch has been marked by racism, discrimination, deceptive practices, threats, financial manipulation, and a consistent failure to provide adequate support. These actions not only undermine the trust we place in our insurance agent but also raise serious concerns about her professionalism, ethical conduct, and treatment of clients from diverse backgrounds.We have irrefutable evidence in the form of the receipt that clearly indicates the policy duration she promised my mother. We hope that AAA Insurance management will take this complaint seriously and address this matter promptly to prevent others from experiencing the same racist, discriminatory, and unprofessional conduct. Immediate improvements are essential.

      I am complaining to you that the AAA Insurance unreasonably cancel my Home Insurance Policy.AAA Insurance decided to take my full annual payment and approved my policy on 7/31/2023. However, in less than 40 days, AAA Insurance abruptly notify me that my policy will be cancelled based on inaccurate information. This causes a lot of hardship on me since I had earlier terminated my previous home insurance just to move over to AAA Insurance based on their promise to underwrite the policy.AAA information is highly inaccurate. It claims that my roof have exceeded useful life and shows signs of deferred maintenance. In my phone call with them, they claimed that I have a tart on my roof. In reality, I always upkeep my roof to top condition. The last damage was caused by the widespread California storm and the damage was in fact classified as catastrophe. The damage was repaired fully by a licensed contractor. Not only that, further improvement were made to let the water flow even better. A 10 year warranty was also provided. The tart was supposed to be removed long time ago after repair but the contractor simply did not show up until July to remove it.I am asking for your help to resolve this matter. AAA Insurance is completely unreasonable in this incident and causing his customer unnecessary stress and difficulty.

      We have an open claim (claim #**********). A driver with CSAA Insurance Group struck my wife ***** from behind at a stop light and damaged the rear bumper of the car. The adjuster initially communicated via an email message that he needed to speak with my wife and was unable to reach her. I informed the adjuster via email on her availability and since that time (one month) my wife has left several massages with the adjuster with no response. I have emailed claims with all information regarding the incident including pictures, descriptions, ID's, etc. and have followed up asking how to proceed with the repairs. They have been non-responsive. We just need to get our bumper fixed properly and just need them to respond to the claim and get us repaired. In addition to the uploaded documents, i also have the follow up email requesting them to respond.

      Four complaints to my agent ****************************** (1) She set up my auto policies different from the one I approved (the quote), leading to an increase of premium from the quote value of $1214 to $1781.76 (annually). ********* changed some of the coverage terms (such as Uninsured Motorist Bodily Injury Coverage) without my consent. For other items, such as Collision Deductible, the actual premium I was charged ($987.00) is way higher than the quote value ($663), even if the coverage remains identical. Both coverages as well as my email correspondence that only approved the quoted policies attached . (2) ********* set up my polices at the end of July, during which time she consistently asked me to sign the documents because "there is a gift card only for signup in July" (btw, I have not seen any gift card so far, and she consistently dodged the question of how the process is going). Partially because of this, I was misled by and overlooked the rushed-signed contract that has a totally different premium from the quoted value. (3) After I found out the overcharged premium, I emailed and called ********* multiple times (proved by the email correspondence). When I finally got connected, she said the overcharge was solely due to my high mileage (which is not true according to another AAA agent, *****************************, who also mentioned that my new policies failed to record my previous ones, hence charged extra; I do have previous policies but ********* never asked me for it. *******'s contact is attached). However, she refused to provide a cost breakdown, to explain why the mileage was not asked during quoting (such that the quote value is misleadingly lower). She also refused to explain the change of coverage without my consent, or the premium increase for identical terms in the quote. (4) She and her team refused to answer my phone, or used the excuse of being too busy and will call/email me back, but never returned my contact especially over the past two weeks.

      Complaint: 20578409

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The company and the agent are dodging the key questions here. I would like to request the company side to answer the following questions specifically

      (1) As a customer, I have the right to proceed with the quote I wish to, which is exactly what I stated in the email. Why did the agent ignore my request and proceed with a different policy WITHOUT my consent? (Please review VERY CAREFULLY the communications between me and the agent, as well as scrutinizing the quoted and actual coverage to see the difference) 

      (2) If the quote with EXACTLY THE SAME terms ended up with a different premium amount, I have the right to know the reason behind. The agent has absolutely NO communications before she asked me to sign it. As you said, the premium is "subject to change as ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS GATHERED". Ask the agent if she ever asked me for more information before the policies were set up. Is it part of the company's policies to make decisions without customer's consent? 

      (3) The agent kept hanging up my phone calls, or showed lack of patience. The agent has shown inappropriate verbal expression based on race and age. Is the company supposed to start investigation on her profession? After numerous calls, the company/local branch did not actively seek alternative options to keep *********************, but ignored my requests for clarifications.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The company and the agent are dodging the key questions here. I would like to request the company side to answer the following questions specifically

      (1) As a customer, I have the right to proceed with the quote I wish to, which is exactly what I stated in the email. Why did the agent ignore my request and proceed with a different policy WITHOUT my consent? (Please review VERY CAREFULLY the communications between me and the agent, as well as scrutinizing the quoted and actual coverage to see the difference) 

      (2) If the quote with EXACTLY THE SAME terms ended up with a different premium amount, I have the right to know the reason behind. The agent has absolutely NO communications before she asked me to sign it. As you said, the premium is "subject to change as ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS GATHERED". Ask the agent if she ever asked me for more information before the policies were set up. Is it part of the company's policies to make decisions without customer's consent? 

      (3) The agent kept hanging up my phone calls, or showed lack of patience. The agent has shown inappropriate verbal expression based on race and age. Is the company supposed to start investigation on her profession? After numerous calls, the company/local branch did not actively seek alternative options to keep *********************, but ignored my requests for clarifications. Does this abide to the professional codes? 

      (4) The gift card is promised as a sign-up bonus, and as customer, I am *********** know when this should happen and how to track it. If 6-8 weeks is a confirmed date, I need to know the progress. If 6-8 weeks is only your estimate, I doubt the credibility of this statement based on your dishonesty during the communications. 

      I insist:

      (1) A formal correction of my premium according to the quote terms and premium, unless a formal explanation why the premium changes and a cost breakdown can be provided. A reimbursement of the overcharged premium between the quoted and actual premiums. 

      (2) A formal apology from the company and the agent for the serious and horrible mistake, as well as unprofessional behavior during this process. 

      (3) Compensation for the labor during my efforts to seek help in this matter.

      I've been waiting almost 2 years for payment. I signed over my car title after I was promised payment once my car was picked up. The settlement agreement claimed that I would receive $945 for my car. The adjuster for my claim ************** has ignored every single one of my communication attempts . We had an agreement!! I was told that I would receive the remainder of the settlement once ******************* picked up the car. After the car was picked up , I was completely ghosted. Settlement letter states $4594 as the amount offered. I received $3648 through direct deposit, I was told, I'd receive the remaining $945 once the car was handed over to *******************. ***** was the one who set up the tow appt.I no longer have AAA, I canceled my membership because of all the games they've been playing.

      I have filed an insurance claim #************ with AAA on 8/2/2023.I am very frustrated with AAA, for not handling my claim within a timely manner. I pay my insurance like any other customer and shouldnt be treated differently or discriminated against. My adjuster expressed having a huge case load due to the ******** in California but came off very irritated when I followed up on my claim. On 8/9/2023, I submitted my inventory and was told it would take **** business days for her to complete. I called back after the timeframe had passed and she wasnt even aware that my inventory had been submitted on 8/9/2023. My adjuster thanked me for letting her know and gave me another 710-day timeframe for completion. After expressing my concerns about the claim process and transparency I asked for the supervisors contact. I was given Gwens information. Ironically, that same day, 8/31/2023 my adjuster reached out to go over my inventory (something that shouldve been taken care of about two weeks ago).

      8/10/2023: all my insurance is with AAA ( home, 3 cars, 2 rental properties ). They are all enrolled in automatic renewal on my credit card. My insurance has been with them for 20+ years. This year as I was filling all the insurance declarations I realized that there was no new declaration for one rental property. I called Immediately and was told that they had mailed me a notice in May which I did NOT receive. I do not know why. People steal mail all the time in my neighborhood. The letter I was told gave the reason for non renewal : deferred maintenance , including but not limited to roofs that have exceeded their useful life the dwelling has a swimming pool that shows signs of deferred maintenance and/or is unfenced-. The roof is flat white and the property is fenced and there is no pool. Fruit trees, raised vegetable beds etc. Never a pool. The house two doors down had both, the very bad roof and a green/ black pool. I asked for a copy of this letter to be sent to me. It was not! I had to go to the local AAA office to get a copy. We had an extended call this morning and the agent refused to send us a copy of the pictures the drone ( or satellite) took saying that is proprietary information, and says that it was a mistake is list the pool as a reason for non renewal but will not entertain the possibility that tthey have pictures of the wrong house. And they are also saying that they wont renew because I didnt renew by 10 August So I have a rental with no insurance and one agent who told me it was going to be exceedingly difficult to get a policy. I am an old woman is that the real excuse?
