can a insurance company ask for an overpayment back if it was there mistake?

Answer 1

If they overpayed you? Well of course, if you overpayed them wouldn't you want the differnce back? Of course you would! It doesn't matter whos mistake is they overpayed you and your pretty much going to have to pay them back. Sorry!

Answer 2

If you accidentally give the cashier at the supermarket $20 too much for your groceries, can you get your $20 back?

If they count the amount of money in the register, and discover they have $20 too much, can they tell you you can't have it back?

If you deposited a check from an insurance company, and the records show the check was too much, if you try to keep it that is either theft or fraud, depending on how you behave when they ask for their money back!

Answer 3

Everyone is giving you the correct answer. Yes they can ask for any over payment back.

To stay in the good graces of the Insurance company you should submit any over payment back to them at once. If you don't trust me they will get nasty about it and they have every legal right to.

Good Luck!

Answer 4

Yes, they can. Turn it around the other way - don't you think you would be entitled to a refund if they overcharged you?

Answer 5

Of course. If you receive money that you aren't entitled to, you're expected to give it back.

Answer 6

They can ask nicely first, then sue if you don't give back something which is not legally yours.

Answer 7

Yes. You don't have to give it back; they can always sue or cancel your insurance.

If it's not yours, give it back.

Funny thing is, if YOU pay too much, you would have hell trying to get it back.

Answer 9

YES

Answer 10
