  My parked car was totaled by a ***** truck on June 11th. The third party company of Gallagher Bassett who is dealing with the payout has only paid part of the claim. As of October 29th, they have not paid off the lien on the car which they said they would in August. Meanwhile, we are still paying on the lien and paying interest. They also took back the provided rental car on August 13th and we have been without a vehicle since. We have been given five people to contact and none of them are returning calls or emails that we are leaving daily. The last person that we talked to who was supposed to be in charge of our case has not returned anything in two weeks now.

  My car was parked out front of a friends home Aug ******* and a ***** delivery truck hit my car while it was parked and I was in the house and ended up totaling my vehicle. Police was called to the scene along with ***** employee manager and co- worker. Information was transferred and I contacted their insurance company aswell as mine.A claim was put in and they declared my car was a loss /totaled. Gallagher Bassett notified me that they will pay out my car for $14,300 . My car at that time was in excellent condition and 118k miles .They sated they researched cars with in radius like mine to see what the going price was . Evidently, they didt see the cars I emailed to them that was ****** for $15,999 . I went back and fourth with them trying to get them to see that the cars like mine were ****** for more that what was given to me.On top of that they gave me a rental for a couple of days and had to return it as we was going back and fourth. I then had to rent a car with money I didt have , look for a car and stress because intrest rates changed since I had bought my car they totaled and dont have no money to put down for a down payment.I find it highly upsetting that I was put in this situation and was only given what they thought my car was worth and leaving me more in debt because of it.they shorted me $16222for what my car was worth and my expenses for rental was $400 total $2022 is what Im asking

  Gallagher Bassett would like to thank Ms. *************** bringing this matter to our attention.  We view feedback as an opportunity for us to improve our overall service. Please be advised that Gallagher Bassett is the third-party claims administrator for *****************.  We called Ms. ****** on November 1, 2024 and November 4, 2024, leaving messages and have not received a response at this time. We will discuss the total loss process and review further details on our contracted Appraisers market evaluation of her vehicle.  We also wished to further review Ms. ******* concerns over having to incur out of pocket expenses for her rental vehicle in an attempt to resolve any outstanding issues. We are confident the more thorough explanation of the market evaluation and additional rental compensation should resolve her concerns.  Should you have any further issues, please do not hesitate to contact us.

  I am rejecting this response because: The company stated there was nothing else that could be done and could probably send an extra $200 because I should have gotten a rental car right after they totaled it prior to them giving me access to one a week later. They do not feel as though my car value was worth what I indicated even though I provided pictures and dealership with the same car with in the same radius that was selling for 2k more than what they offered me . Therefore, Im highly unsatisfied and hope no one else will have to go through the mess I had to dealing with Gallagher Bassett . 
  
  Part of my problem with all of this is not only did they see I should had gotten the rental car as soon as my car was totaled but, waited until now to acknowledge it with my claim. And they still wouldnt offer me the $400 I spent to have a rental car in the mist of going back in fourth with them. Im very dissatisfied.  
  
  Sincerely,
  
  ******* Turner

  Gallagher Bassett would like to thank Ms. *************** following up on this matter.  As we previously indicated, we view feedback as an opportunity to review our claim handling, to ensure that we extended fair settlements based on all relevant facts.  In reviewing the file further, we did not have record of the comparable vehicle Ms. ****** outlined in her follow up complaint. Assistant Branch Manager, Mr. ****** contacted Ms. ****** and obtained a copy of the comparable vehicle she found.  Upon our review, we agreed the comparable vehicle she presented added value to her total loss.  We extended the updated total loss settlement to **************************** has since agreed to the offer and appreciated our further review.  Should you have any further issues, please do not hesitate to contact us.

  Dear Better Business Bureau,I am writing to formally file a complaint against Gallagher Bassett regarding a series of issues I encountered related to my vehicle key fob. In January 2024, the company broke my key fob while servicing my vehicle. Initially, they denied any responsibility, but later they provided a replacement key fob that was incorrect and did not work for my vehicle. This led to significant delays and a lack of proper resolution.Despite my multiple attempts to communicate the ongoing issues, including informing them about the incorrect key fob, the response was insufficient and took several months. During this time, I was unable to start my car, which caused me to miss work and incur additional expenses by renting a vehicle to maintain my daily responsibilities.While they have offered to cover the cost of the key fob replacement, they have refused to reimburse me for the rental car expenses or acknowledge the inconvenience caused by their delays and errors.I believe this situation reflects a lack of accountability and customer service from ********* Department.I kindly request that the Better Business Bureau investigate this matter to ensure that other consumers do not face similar issues in the future.Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.Sincerely, ****** *******

  On 10/14/2024, my vehicle was in an accident caused by a driver covered by Gallagher Bassett. I contacted Gallagher Bassett on 10/14/2024 to file a claim. I was contacted by a claims adjuster (**** ******) on 10/17/2024, who told me they needed to verify their driver's employment status, and that she would get back to me. I did not hear back from her, so I tried contacting her for several days. I have left her voice messages, sent emails, even called ******** Bassett to see if there was another adjuster or supervisor I could speak to. They said they would have someone contact me, but I have not heard back from anyone. My family has been without a vehicle for nearly 10 days now, and I cannot even get Gallagher Bassett to give me any information on my claim. The police report indicates their driver was at fault, and my car is damaged beyond repair. The storage facility the car was towed to is contacting me for payment, and I don't know what to tell them. This situation has been a huge inconvenience for me and my family, and I would like to get it sorted out as soon as possible, but Gallagher Bassett ignores my calls and doesn't sense of urgency in this matter. I am losing my patience and am now considering seeking legal action.

  My car wheel was damaged by ****** tire center in ******, ** to the tune of $1100. ****** handed over my claim to Gallagher Bassett and an agent named ***** called me. She didn't have all the details of the claim. She said she would call the tire center and get back to me. I tried calling her several times and finally got her on the phone. She denied my claim stating that because "I had my own hands on the car" they were only offering $125 for one broken lug. Of course I had my own hands on my car. I often do maintenance on my own car, but can prove the last one touching my wheels was ******. My records are meticulous. I discovered the overtorqued/cross threaded lug nut and a mechanic verified that one plus two more. The repairs were extensive and I also missed work and had to get a rental car. I had more information to provide but Gallagher Bassett had already made the decision to deny my claim. I am owed $1094.82 for the vehicle repair and reimbursement for one day of rental car.Also, when I called the main number after failing to reach the agent, the person was very rude.

  Mr.  ******** allowed me the explain the damage by ****** tire center for the third time now.  I was offered $125 again for a bill that is nearly $1100.  Offering me much less than what I am out of pocket and basically calling me a liar does not resolve my claim.  See you in court.

  I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against Gallagher Student Health regarding unauthorized charges for dental ************ son was charged $329 for an annual dental plan through Gallagher, even though he already has family dental insurance and did not sign up for or authorize enrollment in this plan.Gallagher claims that enrollment can only occur by logging into his personal school account and enrolling and that this occurred in June of this year. However, neither he nor I accessed his account to sign up for this insurance. This raises serious concerns about potential glitches or security issues on their website, as someone managed to enroll in a plan without our knowledge or consent.Furthermore, Gallagher stated that an email confirming enrollment was sent, but we never received any such communication. We only became aware of this enrollment on October 15, 2024 (when asked to pay for it), and upon requesting the cancellation of the plan, I was informed it was too late to do so, leaving us to bear the cost for a plan we do not need, and did not sign up ****** appears Gallagher has implemented practices that allow them to charge students for plans without proper authorization. Therefore, I would like a full refund. Furthermore, I believe they need to revise their enrollment procedures to prevent such issues in the future. Having safeguards in place such as requiring an additional manual confirmation from students before enrollment, or requiring parental consent for enrollment would ensure that this does not happen again.I hope the BBB can address this matter to protect other individuals from similar experiences.Thank you for your attention to this issue.

  ******************** has contracted with Gallagher Student Health (GSH) to manage enrollment and waiver submissions for their student health plan, dental plan, and vision plan, which are offered to eligible students. Enrollment in the voluntary Dental plan is facilitated via an online enrollment form posted on *********************************. To enroll students must complete the form and submit their request. Since enrollment in the dental plan is voluntary, students who do not submit an enrollment request are not enrolled.

  
  ******* ******** is a student at **** and he is eligible for the dental plan. Per the screen captures below our records show that on June 17th at 2:22PM ******* logged into his online account on *********************************. At 2:24 the enrollment request was submitted. ******* was also sent separate email confirmations of his enrollment submission and subsequent approval of his request. We have confirmed that the email address the notifications were sent to is *************** email address. Our system has no record of anyone else logging in within that timeframe other than *******.

  Although we have confirmed the enrollment request was submitted using ********* login credentials we have terminated the dental coverage. I have reached out to *** *****, who has filed this complaint, and informed her of this decision.

  This company conducts business in a way that's designed to exploit claimants.

  Was rear ended by a client of Gallagher basset on August 4th. Took 3 weeks to even get in touch with the adjuster and only after reaching out to a supervisor. Have been dealing with the bodily injury adjuster since then. Have done everything on my part to settle this claim already. Adjuster tells me they sent request for medical records o. September 10th and have not received them. I finally contacted the hospital this morning to see what the hold up was. I was informed, they have no request for my medical records. This ********************** is a joke and by far the worst to deal with. Contacted the adjuster with this information and of course no response. This company really needs to be investigated regarding how they hand claims.

  Thank you for contacting Gallagher Bassett. We understand the importance of handling your claim promptly and fairly for all parties involved. As noted in the BBB submission, we retained a third party investigator to assist with this claim. The claimant was advised he had the option to go through his own carrier while we completed our investigation in order to resolve his claim more quickly. The insured did secure a rental vehicle for the claimant so he would have transportation in the meantime. The third party investigators report was received by Gallagher Bassett on October 10, 2024 and is currently under review by the resolution manager and our client.  We provided an update to the claimant  on October 10, 2024, and will follow up with him once our review is complete.  He advised that he is going through his own personal insurance and that his vehicle is in the body shop for repairs.
