      It was supposed to be in reinstatement status.  They wanted him to pay $1,929.80 on January 19, 2024.  He paid $475.00 which left $1,454.80 and then added a $10.00 late fee which made it $1,464.80.  Then they sent him a check for $365.20 on October 17, 2023.  When they cancelled and reinstated it, they told us not to cash the check and I wrote on there Do Not Cash/Shred It.  He was done and they never put back the money. 

      We are asking that they reinstate him because they illegally cancelled him when they should have not cancelled him.  They told us not to pay until we get the paperwork to show what we have to pay.  The check number was ********** and had never been cashed.  Once they put the $365.20 back on his policy, he will be straight and only owe for ***.  He doesn't need to rewrite his policy.  

      We already have the policy - March 1, 2024 and policy expiration date is Sept. 4, 2024.  He got his insurance card as well.  Why does he have to do a new policy when he has one already in place?

      I submitted a claim 4/19/2023 and received a check for $6000. I am not able to obtain another vehicle with this payout and expected at least $10,000 for my vehicle. The company is not willing to work with me to get me a pay out of $10,000.

      RE: Complainant : *****************************
      Our Insured : *************************
      Policy Number : MOA134697168
      Claim Number : *********
      Date of Loss : 01/20/2023
      BBB Tracking ID : ********

      To Whom it May ********

      Please be advised we are in receipt of the BBBs inquiry dated March 25, 2024,
      regarding the above captioned claim. The following is our response to the complaint and
      our position in this matter. In the inquiry, ***************************** states he expects $10,000.00
      for his total loss vehicle so he can obtain another vehicle.

      ******************** was contacted by AAAs total loss adjuster, ***************************, on February
      20, 2023, and was presented with all total loss settlement details concerning his 2007
      GMC ****** 1500, including an actual cash value of $7,300.00. ******************** advised he
      would review the information and confirm with his adjuster if he would like to retain or
      release the total loss vehicle to AAA.

      ******** contacted ******************** on March 15, 2023, to see if he had decided on
      retaining or releasing his vehicle to AAA. ******************** advised he did not want to keep
      his vehicle and wanted $8,000.00 for the vehicle. ******** confirmed she would be happy
      to review and discuss the details of his vehicle valuation and ******************** advised he
      would not review the valuation details, nor would he proceed with anything unless AAA
      would pay him $8,000.00 for his vehicle.

      ******************** was called on April 4, 2023, and ******** left a voicemail requesting a call
      back to discuss his claim details. ******************** was also mailed a letter on this day
      advising if AAA did not receive a response within 15 days, we would proceed with
      issuing him the payment to retain his total loss vehicle in the amount of $6,058.50.

      On April 19, 2023, AAA had received no further correspondence from ******************** and
      issued him the payment to retain his vehicle in the amount of $6,058.50.

      ******************** left a message for ******** on March 13, 2024, when she was out of the
      office. The call was returned on March 13, 2024, by another total loss adjuster, ******
      *******. ****** spoke with ******************************** who advised she was not sure what
      ******************** was needing on the claim and advised he was not home, and she would
      have him call back to AAA to discuss what he needed.

      Since March 13, 2024, AAA has not received any correspondence concerning the total
      loss vehicle claim until the inquiry was received by the BBB on March 25, 2024.

      ******** reached out to ******************** via phone and left a voicemail March 28, 2024, and
      sent a letter March 29, 2024. We are happy to discuss the details of ******************** claim
      and vehicle valuation.

      In summary AAA has proceeded properly in the handling of ***************************** claim. If
      you have any other concerns or questions, please contact Team Manager *******
      ****** at ************** or by email at ***************************

      I took my car to a service station. They tested my battery, and it said it was bad. I called AAA and they sent a tow truck instead of a truck with a battery. I let the driver know I only needed a battery. He said they are no longer servicing batteries in ********. The battery was replaced in 10/2023. It is already needing to be replaced. When I finally was able to replace the battery, I saw the date of the battery was 6/2023. The tow truck driver told me ********* services AAA. I went there, and they gave me a battery dated 7/2023. They told me it should be three years past the date. If I wanted a newer battery, **** said they would have to order it. That would be another day. Napa won&#**;t touch the car. They will not put the battery in. In order to get the exchange I needed to give them the old one. Another customer helped me exchange the battery.

      Feb 11 2024 about 5 pm I hit a deer on ************** near *********************** in ********* *******. Since this time I have been trying to get my car fixed, the estimate is $3005 and I have a deductible of $1000 to pay. I'm supposed to have a rental car for 30 days that I only had for 11 or 12 days . I just put a $2000 remanned transmission in and picked up my car at noon the day I hit deer. I lost left head light, bumper bent, fender bent can be straightened and painted and dent in my hood, yet this AAA of Missouri wants my vehicle totaled and sold at an auto auction with no regards to my new transmission, brand new tires a month earlier and 4 new shocks. It's been a month and since Tuesday of last week no return phone call or answer to emails nothing. Then today I got an email saying they still want to total my car even though she told me my estimate met the 80 percent or 70 percent value something??? The body shop ***** said he's never seen anyone treated the way they are doing me . I made a insurance complaint with the Indiana commissioner her name is ****. I added attachments but maybe easier to see in an email. And also a picture of my exact vehicle for sale and price

      Please be advised we are in receipt of the BBBs inquiry dated March 11, 2024,
      regarding the above captioned claim. The following is our response to the complaint and
      our position in this matter.

      Ms. *********************** notified AAA of her loss on February 12, 2024, for damage to her
      2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer. Based on an estimate from ***** Body Shop of *******, and
      our initial valuation of the vehicle, it was determined that the vehicle was a total loss.

      ****************** submitted receipts showing recent repairs done to the vehicle. These
      receipts did raise the value of the vehicle. She also submitted a second estimate
      completed by ***** Body Shop. After a review of the second estimate and comparison
      to the updated value of the vehicle, it was determined the vehicle was no longer
      considered a total loss on March 11, 2024.

      Payment was issued to ****************** on March 11, 2024, for $2,509.88 for repairs to her
      vehicle.

      In summary AAA has proceeded properly in the investigation and handling of ****
      ******** claim. If you have any other concerns or questions, please contact Team

      I am rejecting this response because:
      I have not received the payment mentioned by AAA on March 11, my fault entered the wrong information, but it was returned same day by banking institution because i called them myself when AAA kept telling me to wait and see if returned, and it has been 9 days and payment has not been reissued. It has been more than 6 weeks that i have been fighting trying to get my car a simple repair fixed. To be honest they said the value on my car increased because of the recent work mentioned yet it was never reflected , but I've already agreed to an amount so that's it.

      RE: MOA20l02299L

      Dear ********************,

      I am in receipt of an inquiry from the Better Business Bureau (BBB) regarding the above
      referenced auto insurance policy. Your Inquiry was forwarded to my attention for response as a
      matter within my responsibility.

      Before I begin, I would like to thank you for your membership and for taking the time to notice
      us of your concerns. Your insight and feedback are greatly appreciated.

      After reviewing your policy, I can see that the original auto pay request could not be processed.
      This caused the billing plan to adjust to our 5 pay installment plan, which divides your six-
      month premium into E payments instead of 6, which caused the higher due amount. A bill plan
      change was requested fanuary 2,2024,but it appears this was not processed correctly.

      I understand you have spoken to ******************************************************************** Business Manager, regarding this
      situation and that a payment has been made. ******************** also advised that she has updated
      the billing so that it will draft in the future. A confirmation notice that auto-pay was set up was
      mailed to your home address on March 2,2024.

      I would like to take this opportunity to apologize, on behalf of the organization, for the
      difficulties you experienced when trying to get this issue resolved. I wish to assure you that
      place
      lapses in member service of this nature are not indicative of the importance we on
      providing our member insureds with outstanding service. All of us at the Automobile Club of
      that we
      Missouri strive to meet the needs of our members and insureds. I am very disappointed
      team
      failed to meet your expectations. We have shared your experience with our management
      and the matter will be reviewed and addressed.

      BBB: I do know which AAA profile it is on BBB. I came across countless of AAA profiles on BBB website.

      AAA:
      AAA has pretty much the worse online customer service out there.
      AAA won't respond to any emails or messages.
      Hell, I still waiting for a response from my email and message back in June (even tho that June issue was taking care of by BBB last year).

      NEWEST issue:
      I switch from State Farm to AAA for car insurance about a month ago.
      I have yet to get my car insurance cards from AAA. It does not take this long to send out cards.

      I was tired of waiting, I decided to stop by the closet AAA office according the either their website or app., which say Rolla MO.
      Guess what?
      RE/MAX Heart of America that is occupying AAA spot, AAA is not longer there.

      I sent an message through the website, NO RESPONSE.

      I called AAA when my car was dead. They diagnosed it as a battery. Provided the battery at $229.29. I drove the truck to work today and the same thing happened. I called AAA. They came out, that person said the battery was good but it was the alternator and the alternator wasn't tested previously. This was a case of misdiagnosis.

      Florissant, MO *****-2101 Dear Mr. *******:

      Membership Number: *** *** ******** **

      Thank
      you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to report your
      emergency roadside service experience. Your correspondence submitted to
      the Better Business Bureau (BBB)was forwarded to me as a matter under my
      responsibility.

      A review of our records reflects that
      you contacted AAA Missouri on February 18, 2024, to request battery
      service for your vehicle. In your correspondence, you advised the service
      provider dispatched to assist you diagnosed your battery as bad, so you
      purchased a new AAA battery. You advised on February 20, 2024, that your
      vehicle would not start. You advised of being informed by a second
      service provider that your alternator was the issue, and the alternator
      was not tested by the first service technician. You advised that your
      breakdown issue was misdiagnosed as a bad battery and that you had to
      have your vehicle towed to an auto shop for alternator repair.
      Ultimately, you are seeking a full refund of $229.29 that you paid for
      the AAA battery and a $36.00 tow mileage fee you incurred on February
      20, 2024.

      To start, thank you for allowing us to review
      and respond to your service concerns. Your feedback is important to us,
      as it enables us to assess and improve upon our member service
      experience. It is our mission to ensure that the service technicians are
      providing accurate information as it relates to the service at hand. It
      is with great regret to know that this did not occur on your recent
      service experience. To avoid a recurrence of this nature in the future,
      we have counseled our contracted service providers of the importance of
      this mission. Our review concluded there was no error on the part of the
      original battery service technician on February 18, 2024, as the
      battery test results showed battery replacement was required and the
      charging system tested as normal. Furthermore, the second battery
      service technician also provided you with the correct information based
      on the battery test printout which showed the charging system was not
      operating normally at the time of the test on February 20, 2024. We
      found it was the additional information by the second technician advising
      you that your vehicle's alternator was not tested on February 18, 2024, was
      the only incorrect information. Please know that the appropriate
      corrective actions have taken place.

      On behalf of our entire organization, we would like to extend our
      sincerest apologies to you as were unable to provide you with a totally
      satisfying member experience. We highly value your membership and find it
      disappointing that your experience fell short of our goal and your

      Dear Mr. ****,

      I am writing in response to an inquiry I received from the BBB, regarding your Auto Insurance Policy. In
      your correspondence you state you were quoted $119 for an auto insurance policy. You were charged
      $127 for a policy you did not electronically sign causing your account to be overdrawn.

      Upon investigation into your claims our Insurance Business Manager ****** ****** discovered that
      your original quote included a multi-policy discount for insuring both your auto and home with us.
      Unfortunately, your home did not qualify for insurance with us causing you to lose the multi-policy
      discount on your auto insurance.

      At this time your policy has been cancelled and you will receive a refund in the amount of $127.19.

      I would like to take this opportunity to apologize, on behalf of the organization, for the difficulties you
      experienced surrounding the issuance and cancellation of your insurance policy. Be assured that occurrences
      such as these are not our usual and customary way of conducting business. We fully investigated your
      concerns and are taking appropriate action to ensure no further incidents of this nature recur. I wish to assure
      you that lapses in member service of this nature are not indicative of the importance we place in providing our
      insured members with outstanding service. As an insurance provider, we strive to address the needs of our
      members and insureds openly and accurately. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address your
      concerns and reach and equitable resolution.

      Please accept my apology for your inconvenience. If you have further questions or concerns, please do not
      hesitate to contact me at (***) ******** or *********************.

      Sincerely,



      *** *****

      We were involved in a car accident on 1/26/24 & contacted AAA that day to start the claim process ( claim # *********). The other driver was at fault & was ticketed per the police report and we also had dashcam video of the accident. Our car is totaled and were still waiting for a settlement offer. Our claims adjuster does not return calls and now her voicemail is full. We only had a rental car for 7 days. We are requesting a fair & timely settlement offer for our vehicle so we can purchase a new one. The lack of response from the adjuster is unacceptable as is the lack of an offer after 3 weeks.

      Please be advised we are in receipt of the BBBs inquiry dated February 16, 2024,
      regarding the above captioned claim. The following is our response to the complaint and
      our position in this matter.

      On January 27, 2024, ******************************* reported a 2-car accident to AAA which
      occurred on January 26, 2024. There were multiple conversations between the early
      response adjuster, *****************************, and ********************************* regarding the investigation,
      injuries and the 2017 Chevrolet Camaro involved in the accident. The vehicle was
      determined a total loss and assigned to *********************************** on January 29, 2024.
      ********* spoke with ******** on February 1, 2024. ********* discussed options added
      to the vehicle, asked for additional photos, confirmed email address, and provided the
      settlement breakdown via email that day.

      ******* called AAA on February 5, 2024, leaving a voicemail for total loss adjuster,
      Katharine, which was returned by another total loss adjuster as ********* was out of the
      office. ******* called the next day and told ********* he received a call from **********************
      Auto Auction stating their attempts to contact the tow lot to pick up his vehicle were
      unsuccessful. ******* provided ********* with the correct phone number for the tow lot.

      Katharines manager, *************************, received a voicemail from ******** on February 20,
      2024, wanting to get a status on the claim. ***** returned the phone call that day and
      advised ********* would call her back to discuss her total loss. ********* called ********
      later that day to explain updates that were made to the valuation and provided updated
      value and settlement figures.

      I was rear-ended 11/8/23 by a customer of AAA. As of 2/8/24 I am now on my 6th agent. They don't return calls, or emails. I have left detailed messages for 2 different managers requesting to be contacted. Every time I get a different agent I have to resend documents that I have already submitted. I have even gone as far as contacting the person the caused the accident and he said he has the same problem.It is so mind blowing that a company that is this big and familiar to consumers are so unprofessional
