Great post - thanks. And condolences.
Hmmm. . .you know. . .you are right.
My friend..ahem..made it to the verify your identity BS and I said BS.
You should not have to be giving up all this info just to get a quote since they can only go by your age and a few other pieces of info.
You should be able to get a quote on BASIC parameters not your whole damn history.
You could go to ehealth insurance and get a quote without verifying identity and giving a social security number. It might not be the exact quote but it was close enough.
Now the govt steps in and gives your info over to people who have arrest warrents and illegal aliens.
You’d think that for non subsidy rates that you could put in basic demographics and, say, ZIP code, and be able to get rates. I am at a loss to understand why you have to go through all of these machinations to get a simple menu of rates. Wasn’t the idea to spread the cost, burden and risk over large populations?
Were you asked if you had purchased health insurance for any of your pets? I asked that because in the DUmmie FUnnies I posted a KOmmie thread in which a Kommie stated he had been asked that info about a cat he owns.
Oh man, there is a connection to O’CommieCare and CGI which is directly responsible for this fiasco and folks it is a pattern with this Canadian POS.
Pierre Karl Peladeau is an absolute scum bucket who single-handedly destroyed a company I worked for as Director Of Engineering. He took over Quebecor Printing (which at the time was the World’s largest Commercial Printer) after his father died and ran it into the ground all while getting over $6 Million/year in bonuses even when it went bankrupt.
I found a story link from the Montreal Gazette:
Prominent businessman Pierre Karl Peladeau, who is chairman of the ... Canadian tech firm CGI at center of U.S. Obamacare glitch.
Your rate will be about $100 a month, less than a cell phone bill. Obama told me so.
Well, I guess the question regarding the applicant's ethnicity would answer a rather large part of that.
No, I can report no questions about canine hyphen Americans, feline hyphen Americans, rodent hyphen Americans, reptile hyphen Americans or any other type of household pet.
Sounds like a Chicago-style affirmative action “redistribution” boondoggle, like “Ceasefire”, where Rahm gave millions to gang thugs to “stop the violence”.
I would suspect that all your personal information is now in Bangladesh, Nigeria, Afghanistan, Pakistan & other hotbeds of Identity Theft & fraud.
Watch all of your credit card statement & all your credit reports very carefully until you die.
Good Luck.
I’ve read that the navigators will be getting $48.00 per person they sign up. If the navigators (cohorts of Obama-etc) are answering those phones, and helping me to sign up, they will be making out like fat rats.”””””
I have read here on FR that they will be paid $45 to $48 PER HOUR. They are also being called ‘experts’ with about 20 hours of ‘training’.
What an apprenticeship program that is!!!
Your rate will be about $100 a month, less than a cell phone bill. Obama told me so.”””
Don’t have a cell phone & don’t have an extra $100 a month for the imposter in the Oval Office.
if more people actually signed up, and actually got to see the premiums and deductables they would have to pay, and the actual terms and conditions, then the Republicans would have more people supporting their efforts to abolish Obamacare.
They don't want you to see the real numbers until AFTER it's too late.
It's a jobs program for Obama activists.
Like everyone, I’m eventually going to need to see a doctor.
Good luck with that 56% of doctors are not going to be in the ACA.
The Experian number prompts for a reference number, which the Obamacare web site hasn’t given me. When I admit that I don’t have a reference number, the call is terminated. Back on the phone I go to the Obamacare call center. The representative that I talked to tried to help but couldn’t explain why I hadn’t been given a reference number.
Sounds like it's time to rent Brazil again. This bit sounds like Jill getting the runaround about whether Mr. Buttle's paperwork has been stamped.
I would like to hear “the rest of the story” as it evolves. Will you consider starting a ping list, and adding me to it, please?
Well done. To complete the experience, watch Orson Welles’ “The Trial.” Then decide which is more surreal....
Favorite quote:
“no one knows what’s wrong, no one knows how long it will take to fix it, and there’s nothing anyone can to do help me use this system and get health insurance rates. I actually used those exact words in that exact order and the supervisor’s response was, “Yes, unfortunately, that is all correct.”
Very interesting. Just got into a disagreement with my very dimwitted lefty brother in law last night. He claims he signed up with ease. I suggested he alert the news media as they are looking for these grand success stories!
Let us know what happens next, I’m interested in how this story plays out.
I on the other hand, will never ever ever ever....comply. EVER
