    I bought soccer insurance for 2 of my teens when I registered them for spring season on 2/17/25. The term effective date and covered season as stated on their policy 4/20-6/22/25. 1 of them cant play due to not enough players signing up so the soccer program emailed apologizing and assured a refund is coming for the paid season. However when I contacted Battleface requesting my insurance premium refund as well for a season that hasnt started yet therefore term hasnt started yet, they tell me the reason doesnt fall under what they deem as 1 of the reasons reason for refund. This is theft. Its like if you were to go buy a car and you buy insurance for it then you change your mind and dont buy the car, the insurance company doesnt keep your premium for something that doesnt exist. You get your money back.

    I purchased travel insurance through Battleface on March 11, 2022 to cover an upcoming trip. The amount of coverage I purchased was $5,334.00, which is due to me by Battleface. I called the company to file a claim on July 21, 2022. I was told that I would be contacted via email by my claims adjuster within 1-2 business days.

    A week later, after receiving no email or phone call, I called again. I was told my case would be escalated and that a week is far too long to wait to receive even an email stating receipt of my claim. I have never received the paperwork I was told I needed to complete in order to have my claim processed.

    It is now August 9, 2022. I have called Battleface and ********** at least 9 times. Each time I call Battleface I am given conflicting information about my claim from what I can only assume is a call center representative. Most recently, the representative I spoke with (Jane) told me that Battleface will no longer be contracting through ********** as a result of these delays and possible scams. I confided that I very worried I have just been scammed myself. I have now been told my case has been escalated 4 times, the supervisor of my adjuster was emailed and that I would definitely be getting a response within 2-3 days.

    That was five days ago. Still nothing. My adjuster is named ******** ******* and she never responds to calls or emails.

    My claim is #*******. I lost money on a trip we needed to cancel, and this insurance policy I purchased was committed to covering that cost.

    I need this amount to be mailed to me asap and for the company to fulfill its obligation under the law to compensate this claim.
