I am new to Medicare
I am new to Medicare, so it is my initial enrollment period to start Dec 1, 2024. I applied for smartfit plan for 2024 and Value Plus for 2025. I had a guy with a heavy east indian accent call me and said he was from Aetna and wanted me to start handing out my personal info to verify it is me. Seriously? You called me, you verify who you are, what plan am I on. He said I cant tell you that until I verify it is you. I said I don't know that you are Aetna so I am not going to. He hung up on me, then he got into my aetna account and canceled my 2024 Smartfit plan 3 days before it is to start in which I already have my medical card for and a bank card for. Now they are no good and I am then switched to the value plus for 2024, which was suppose to start in 2025 (because these plans change every year). He did this on purpose to delay my insurance from starting on Dec 1. I called there to change it back. They said it would be 2 weeks for that to happen and I have dental appoints in 5 days and 9 days. There is no place to complain to. I called there and they are all idiots and unhelpful. I was on a chat with one guy and he put me on hold for 5 minutes that turned into 45. All this time he said nothing unless I said, are you still there. Only then did he say, yes, give me 3-5 more minutes. He was simply wanting to pretend he was working and not put himself into a situation to have to take the next chat by working under this method of deception. In the end I got no help there either. I don't dare call again because I will be subjected to telling the first person why I am calling, only to then be transferred to someone else, retell it, be transferred to someone else, retell it, then they pretend to do something, screw it up, and then you are stuck calling the next day to try and fix it. It is horrible.
