Anonymous Coward User ID: 40845461 United States 10/05/2013 11:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have spent countless hours trying to establish my account and get the rates. Quoting: morcomanifes Apparently, you have to give TBTB the keys to your kingdom before you even get to see rates. My journey: Day 1. OCT 1st 2013: I eagerly get up at 0400 in the morning to happily establish an account and start shopping the Exchange marketplace for AFFORDABLE HEALTH INSURANCE. RESULT: Website is down and will not accept any input data. I give up for the day. DAY 2: OCT 2nd 2013: I am not to be deterred from my mission. I repeat same procedure as before with same result. EXCEPT......I was able to get to a LOGIN page. I hit the CREATE ACCOUNT radio button and I start the process of selling my soul. RESULT: Website crashed and I got a SQL permission denied to this resource error. I quit and drank a six pack of Trader Jose beers. Day 3: OCT 3rd 2013: I am exhausted but I manage to get up at 0530 to resume Operation Enroll. I have now managed to create an account (finally). The Username requirements are complicated and probably won't cater well to the intended audience (need I say more). Password complexity requirement are equally difficult and many applicant will be simply unable to remember the first four numerals/digits/Uppercase/lowercase/umletung/#/@/} characters. RESULT: I was able to establish an account, sell my soul of personal information and get to the point where they want to VERIFY My identity. They require my SSN and said they will use this to check my INCOME and establish eligibility for OBAMACARE. In the end, they said my identity could not be identified and I would need to scan a picture of my DRIVERS LICENSE and upload it to the OBAMACARE website where an outsourced NAVIGATOR will review it to determine my identity. HOWEVER, the UPLOAD option is BROKE and will not permit uploads at this time. ERROR 59. Day 4: OCT 4th 2013: My will to enroll is fading and I elect to get up at 0600hrs. I manage to login with my newly created account and I want to simply resume my journey of obtaining AFFORDABLE HEALTH INSURANCE. I login and expect to RESUME where I left off; but NOOOOOOOO!; the system was not able to save my data since the DATABASE sucks. I elect to re-enter my soul into the database and hope SATAN finds it attractive enough to archive it. I then resume the process of uploading my drivers license for identity verification. IT FAILS; but this time it tells me to call the outsourced contractor for identity verification. It turns out to be EXPERIAN Identity Verification Services Headquartered in DUBLIN IRELAND. WTF? I call and get a recording that says they are experiencing an UNUSUAL amount of call traffic and to call back tomorrow. No option was offered to wait until my soul went to hell. I then called the HEALTHCARE.GOV # 1-800-FUCKYO and the phone was answered promptly, but it was just background noise. I patiently listened to the background conversations and intermittently injected ANTI-OBAMACARE statements. Eventually Patricia came online and politely told my that the website sucks and can't handle the traffic and to try again later in the week. MISSION ANALYSIS: I failed to complete my mission. I expect 100% of Americans also failed. I logged over 30 hours of persistent attempts at trying to get access to the system. BTW- The only REASON I was doing all this was to simply obtain the RATES. I was curious. BTW2- I am already covered by my employer and have no need to enroll in OBAMACARE. I just want to know the RATES. Updates to follow!!! PLEASE BUMP!! Why not just post all your confidential information here....... because after you hand it over to the Government it just becomes information......easily obtained. |

User ID: 29271839 United States 10/05/2013 12:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | GONE was that long asss form asking for every knee scrape, pill and condition that I may have had before enrolling in this new plan. THAT was cool. Cost to cover my kid as well - outrageoes as USUAL - my husbands plan has a better deal there. Also - it has been nice not to pay those extra fees for yearly check up stuff that have always been an unpleasant "surprise" after your exams. Bottom line - pricing in the "private" sector is controlled by the the insurance companies and they are going to want to make their money. UNFORTUNATELLY that is what cannot be controlled here - and it is going to vary form state to stae, region, companies offering the services, the tides and the moon aligment - whatever. I am also sure that - they may not be able to deny people coverage for pre-existing BUT may be able to make the premiums a bitch for the pleasure. Please correct me if I am wrong but I thought the "savings/affordable" part of the whole thing was gong to be through subsidies for low income people and tax breaks according to your hosehold income - anyone seen any figures on that> Curious Elsie |

In shopping around the best program he could find would cost him $22K per year for him and that it is below the bronze level of insurance. His wife has been raised to $4500 deductible, $40 or more for c0pay each occaSION and is covered only forthy percent. And, they raised her premium by $300 per month. They enjopyed a decent income but with this they can afford the insurance and their housing cost, period, nothing more. |
