Good but could be great
I usually submit several claims at a time and every time only about half are ever acknowledged. I emailed a couple months ago to ask a question about this and the agent was exceptionally rude. I like this service overall but the claims processing needs to be fixed and it should have an app platform to submit claims.

Good idea to have insurance but rules are complicated and arbitrary .
Sometimes the insurance does not measure up to what I had expected.
