    I was hit by a company vehicle Terraphase, their insurance CNA has been for over a week now been giving me a run around. They are at fault for the accident but are not willing to fix my vehicle but instead want me to have no car by totaling it and giving me ***** dollars. This is inaccurate how am I supposed to get to work?

    I was injured on my job on April 15th 2025. My injury was reported to my employer. My employer contracts with CNA Claim Plus to handle all ********* comp issues. The representative for my claim is **** **********. She has only reached out to me twice by phone to set up a phone appointment. She has scheduled 2 of these with me but never calls. I was off of work 4/16, 4/17, 4/18, 4/21, 4/22, and 4/23 of 2025. All I'm asking is to be paid my ********* comp for these days.

    I am writing to express my deep disappointment and frustration with the handling of my claim, particularly with the interactions I've had with adjuster ******* ********* and her manager, ******* *****. The hostile interaction with ******* prompted me to reach out to her manager, *******, in hopes of resolving the issue. Unfortunately, ******* not only downplayed my complaint about Shardae's behavior but also displayed a similar attitude.Despite my request to remove ******* from my case due to the unprofessional tone and demeanor she exhibited, ******* refused, seemingly as an assertion of authority. ******* was copied on subsequent emails as a mediator and for record-keeping purposes. However, she has used this opportunity to further demonstrate her power and ******************** this point, I am questioning whether the behavior exhibited by ******* and ******* is reflective of the company's character or if they are outliers. I am requesting a thorough review of my claim and that it be escalated to unbiased individuals who can maintain a professional demeanor. I believe this is essential to ensure a fair and respectful handling of my case moving forward.I look forward to your prompt attention to this matter and hope that it will be handled with the professionalism and respect that I expect from your company.

    I am rejecting the current response from the business representative until I receive a direct response from the company, as the adjusters have seemingly entered a period of non-responsiveness. I will reconsider and evaluate the proposed solution once the situation is reconciled and I have received a formal response from the company.

    I have subscribed to Continental Casualty Company for more than 25 years and have never missed a payment. Last month I missed the ***** period by 15 days and they cancelled me. I realized to my horror that my bills had been buried under other paperwork during a chaotic time in my life. I begged them for ***** to let me immediately be readmitted but they refused. Doesn't faithful payment for 25 years count for anything in my favor? I will pay immediately.

    CNA Continental Casualty Company Insurance issued a benefit 'paid to the order of...' to a deceased person listed on the account instead of the person authorized as administrator and 'Power of Attorney' (The living relative). In phone calls with support, they explained to us that a direct-deposit payment was attempted, rejected by the bank, then resent to the deceased. They said this was a 'special circumstance' as no applicable valid estate was listed. When asked about whether they notify customers of this type of thing they said, 'the check is the notification.' They also said that within their portal there is 'no option' to list a backup account or request "notification in the case of" when there is an issue with payment. In short, they did not reach out to the authorized person listed on the account following a payment issue with the account. Not good business practice! For reference, to be authorized to administrate the account, personal information including contact information is required. So, they have clear access to the information they need to notify their customers. There's no sense notifying a deceased person, if checks are the only notification, when you have perfectly good contact info available as a reference. They're reasoning for declining and reissuing a check to the authorized account administrator is that it would invalidate paperwork they filed with the ***. I don't doubt that, but was making a check out to the deceased really the next best option on CNA's customer support decision tree? They had clear access and documentation stating her deceased status. Now my family has to figure out how to establish new estate documents and tax forms to cash a check that should've easily been deposited into the account of the authorized person listed. Essentially a phone call or email. This process will now cost us time and money negating the value and purpose of the benefit provided in addition to prolonging the grieving process and closure for my family.

    My father went into hospice in November 2023 and we submitted a claim on his LCT insurance. They have repeatedly lost the documentation submitted to them by the ******* provider and as such claim he continued to owe premium payments. They repeatedly ignored their own deadlines for responding to my concerns and to a formal written appeal, and instead locked us out of his account. I want them to re-instate his account immediately, and to remove the inappropriate $298.94 premium charge that is not due.

    Ms. ****** has filed her compliant with the Department of Insurance. CNA will respond in writing to the Department of Insurance rather than via the BBB because the *** regulates insurance. Ms. ****** can also contact CNA directly and ask to speak with a supervisor if she has not already received her response.

    Better Business Bureau:

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********. Both checks were issued on August 23 and delivered ***** just hours ago to one of the two designated addresses. We will arrange delivery of the second check to the correct address. While this still shows a lack of attention to details, this resolution is satisfactory to me.Thank you for your assistance.

    CNA LONG-TERM CARE INSURANCE Long-Term Insurance that has been paid into for over 20 yrs is not paying submitted claims. They have received all paperwork as requested since 3/5/24. They will not let me speak to any supervisor and all employees that I speak to DO NOT understand what they are talking about. I have read several other complaints and they sound exactly like mine. My 88 year old mother trusted this company and now it all sounds like FRAUD.
