Lost a loaner HA

There’s a lot of moaning and whining when the specific facts are not known. We do not know the extent of the insurance coverance, if it DOES cover the HAs, a jury would raise an eyebrow at a business trying to grab additional funds.

You consider that “moaning and whining” when someone points out the fact that someone took responsibility by signing for just that? You and I were meant to butt heads, eh?

this is exactly why we have rich lawyers

Let’s talk about reasonableness. Is the “vendor” (funny how they don’t advertise themselves as vendors, but as life-changers) really out $2300 for a used loaner HA that is insured?

Look, I wasn’t suggesting that I be absolved of any responsibility. I was just asking for suggestions as to how to resolve this matter, short of trying to dig up $2300 for a product that doesn’t seem to work for me and is used and depreciated in value. The suggestions re: offer to pay for the deductible and their trouble (although I have already paid one bill to them) seem reasonable to me. I am deeply grateful for everyone’s thoughts, and that I found this resource.

If it really was a used loaner HA, why don’t you try to buy one (same manufacturer, same model) from Ebay or from another dispenser as well? This way, the audiologist will not suffer any financial damage.

So randy2029, it has been 2 weeks since your original post. Where are you with this issue? Resolved? Still ongoing?
