when i lost my job and COBRA and being too young for mediacare or medicaid...i bought a policy from an insurance company. they were not a real insurance company and i found that out when i went into the hospital . I called from the hospital and cancelled the inusrance and told them to stop talking monthly premiums from my chechking. They continued to take out money for many months.

How do you know it was not a real insurance company - maybe it was the product that you bought that was not good or what you needed. If they were really a scam . . . . . I doubt that you can get it back. Without more details, your question is impossible to answer. |

Posted by csibbio Maybe it was a high deductible plan? Everything should have been explained in the policy - did you read it before you bought it? Every state has an Insurance Commissioner office that regulates the industry so if you can determine what the insurnace company should have paid for as stated within the policy and didn't, you should take it up with your states' insurance commissioner's office. |
