Got them 5 years ago at SPG property. Emailed SGP with pictures and was prompted “gifted” 50k points with no acknowledgment of bed bugs. Luckily, it wasn’t bad and did not infect my house.

Didn’t notice either until it was time to fly home. From what I remember, it was a short trip. The SPG property shortly switched to another hotel chain

Curious, did you guys not notice? Usually with white sheets, if you pull the covers back and check under mattress, they’d be apparent, no?

Not necessarily D3. They can live 18 mos without food and if there had been an infestation that was cleaned - or the infestation was next door - then a few can be hiding out in the walls or carpet. You should check the mattress, headboard, outlets, curtains....

Didn't notice anything but the tell tale welts in a line a few days later. Some people are also asymptomatic, so they might not notice even if infested.

Help - how do I fight claims by scammer healthcare providers?

I recently went to 2 different providers.

Dentist, made appt via Zocdoc to see a dentist that was in network. Another dentist at the location saw me instead who was out of network. I have text evidence they said it would be covered before visit. Claim was denied - asking for ~500 dollars.

Saw a specialist who’s office staff verified my insurance would fully cover the claim. Get the claim, says they are out of network. Owe 600.
