so i get a letter today...saying...DEAR MOM TO BE from my insurance..offering me this $50 gift card blah blah...
they also CALLED me two days after my d&c and i told them i lost the baby and i wasnt interested in their junk....i was a bit rude...
so they sent me this junk in the mail...so i call them and explain why i am not interested (AGAIN!) then...the lady says "that is a general letter..it gets sent to everyone" I said..." oh really? how many MEN have you sent it to then?" i continue to explain that it has been 2 months since my loss and i feel i have moved on..but things like this set me back..if they continue to harass me i will call a lawyer..that it is emotional distress and its illegal..she says she is very sorry and will take me off their list...
I then said..further more...if i were a more recent loss..something like this would have broken me down to tears..instead it made me angry...I feel bad for anyone who suffers a loss..youre company needs to look at what they are sending out and to whom...thank you and have a nice day...and i hung up...
I would hate for someone who had a more recent loss to get a letter like that...instead it made me angry..and not even angry for me...but it made me think of all the people who had a recent loss...
anywho...i feel better now that i vented...and i may have been rude to her...but atleast i got my point across..it only took two phone calls and a letter from them...GEESH!
Re: a little vent (insurance people bother me!!)
Insurance companies are freaking something, aren't they??? On Monday, I recieved two things in the mails from my insurance company. One was the EOB stating that they approved the "Induced Abortion, by Dilation and Evacuation" (did they really have to call it that???????????)
The other was a letter from the "Healthy Beginnings" maternity program, letting me know that I should begin feeling my baby move "any day now" and that in just a few short weeks, we would find out if we were having a boy or a girl.... I totally lost it.
Insurance companies suck
Do you have UNited Health Care (healthy prengnacy program)?
Seriously, they did that to me and they called to check on my pregnancy 4wks AFTER I gave birth. After I broke down crying I yelled at the woman and she apologized but seriously as an insurance company and further more MY insurance company shouldn't you have ON FILE that I am no longer pregnany?
These companys have some serious revamping to do.
