In addition to the crap that RoadRunner is putting me through today, I’ve been battling my hosting provider, MCHost<\/a> for the past couple of weeks over billing issues. They’ve double-charged me for hosting for January-April. They don’t post a phone number, so I have to go through their web-based support tickets. I must say that their turnaround time and response quality are horrible. Between the service when something goes wrong and the fact that my server was up and down a lot in March, I’m seriously condsidering moving hosting providers back to Avid<\/a>. They cost more, but it appears that you definitely get what you pay for when it comes to support.<\/p>\n

While I’m bitching, I might as well also complain about UnitedHealthcare’s dental insurance. There was a mix up with our enrollment where they originally thought something wasn’t covered, but it was and we had to file the claim ourselves as Mary’s dentist doesn’t file claims (gee, I wonder why?). We’ve gone back and forth with them about 5 times now about what is required for the claim ($1600, I might add). We had the dentist send x-rays. UH claims not to have them in their system even though they “have a record of receiving something”. Getting an insurance company to pay for a legitimate charge in a reasonable amount of time is a nightmare. <\/p>\n

I’m really getting fed up with all of this crap. It’s not like I don’t have enough to deal with at work and home without having all this other shit go wrong. Mmmmm…venting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
