    My son had account ********* He died on October 8,2022
    The payment for his account has been coming out of my checking account. I keep trying to get them to stop it and they keep telling me they need to talk to him. I keep explaining that he died but no one seems to be able to help me. I need this removed from my debit card and credited back the charges since October 8.

    Because of an issue with Ambetters system my insurance premium was deducted from my account twice. As soon as the error was noticed I made a request for the money to be refunded. I was told the refund would be processed in 7-10 business days. It’s been 15 business days. Ambetter has not returned my money. I have called many times and each time I am told to wait another day. Ambetter is refusing is refusing to issue a refund on money they should not have taken to begin with. This has caused my family financial hardship.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic.
