Your worst arguement?

    This thread is so funny - the stuff people argue about.

    The worst arguements are the arguements where both parties are wrong. And you are willing to see where you went wrong and take it into consideration but then the other person simply refuses to take any responsiblity and lays all the blame on you.

    And the arguements where you are met with silence.

    And the arguements where everything from the past is brought into the current conflict.

    And the arguements where insults are throw in your face. Okay! W

    And you try to apologise and it's not good enough and perhaps you're met with silence you're practially expected to go down and lick their boots.

    There is no medical underwriting of health insurance in Ireland, and I don't know where you're getting the idea that my fracture is a pre-existing condition. It healed up, no complications and no health insurer has ever made an issue out of it, even after I mentioned it to them, because I don't require any treatment for it.

    Trust me, I read my contract. Nothing mentioned in it about claims affecting the premium. I also just pulled up the T&Cs of VHI health insurance, and there's nothing there about claims affecting premiums.

    Also from citizen's information:

    http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/health/health_insurance/private_health_insurance.html

    No one mentioned medical underwriting. I'm saying that you made a claim, this would effect your policy as you made a claim.

    Every health insurance company takes into account pre existing conditions

    The information from the citizens information is about risk equalisation... we already discussed this, it does exist but doesn't in any way apply to your situation.

    I've no idea why you're still fighting this... I just stated my opinion.


    Out of curiosity, how did a poor college student, supporting herself on only a part time job, afford a holiday to France?

    How does a poor college student, supporting herself on only a part time job, have savings?

    Why, if you had savings, didn't you buy your own insurance?

    My worst row was with someone for spelling argument as arguement!

    Well, I just stated some facts and you have done nothing to prove your point.

    I worked hard every summer from the time I was 16, got part-time work during the academic year, used my grant sensibly to pay rent and buy food, didn't drink for most of the year, and prioritised my desire to go to France over the desire to make a drunken twat of myself. My parents offered to pay for my health insurance because I didn't take any other money for college. What is it to you anyway how I manage my own money?

    got in an argument with my mother wen i was 10 , wen she wouldn't give me a piece of her chocolate bar so i reacted and slapped her across the face!!! True story.

    We laugh about it now.. I would never dream of doing anything like that now... :eek:

    How have I not done anything to prove my point? The facts you have stated include your insurance premium.... which you claimed to be €300.... we later proved this to be closer to €600.

    I was simply saying that by demanding your full rebate you we're acting immature and spoiled. Your mother had full right to be feel unappreciated and annoyed.

    I proved my point by the way you acted at the time and your complete oblivious ignorance to wrongness of these actions as stated by yourself in this thread.

    Girlfriend VS Call of duty.
    Some major arguments over the playstation 3 in the last few years.
    One of the worst was for shooting a virtual horse and about how mean it was. :(

    Letting her drive, always causes an argument that never ends well. :cool:

    One of my mates didn't talk to me for 3 weeks either because I downed his pint while he went to the bathroom and the pub had no more of that type of beer.:p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 814 ✭✭✭Tesco Massacre


    Well, this one was kind of a unidirectional argument.

    I was roared at for a good 4/5 minutes (felt like a lot longer) by my (now) ex on Camden St. during a night out a few months back.


    I won't go into the reason for the shouting, but suffice to say I was in the wrong so I had to just stand there and take a verbal pummelling in front of everyone.

    Christ, it was grim.

    I've had a couple of bad ones with my parents. The worst one probably when I was about seventeen, it had something to do with bunking off school. As an adult the only time I ever fell out with either of them was when I had to move back home (when I was unemployed). We normally get on exceptionally well, but having so many adults under one roof can be tough, especially when your parents will always consider themselves the authoritarians.

    An ex once punched a hole in the wall during an argument with me, which had started, ironically enough, when I said he was too aggressive. :pac:

    No, I'm asking for you to prove about insurance premiums increasing due making a claim, not one shred of evidence towards this. I made a mistake when I mentioned what insurance plan I have. Is this what you go for, someone disagrees with you and you call them spoiled. I am far from spoiled; I could have spent my time in college drinking, partying and taking money from my parents for everything but I chose to try to live as much of an unsupported life as I could and when you only have €1000 in the bank (savings in my mind for the next academic year) and you have to pay medical costs despite having health insurance, it kinda pisses you off. Just my perspective...

    An insurance company's price is unregulated, they can raise it whenever they want. This is pretty basic knowledge... if you actually had purchased yourself health insurance, as you claimed, you would know this.

    I'm not resorting to calling you spoiled, its how your acting. I'm not even disagreeing with you, I'm simply expression my opinion over your actions, which to me, seem arrogant and ungrateful.

    It's not a savings plan! Jesus, her mother gifted her with medical insurance. You can't attach strings to a gift. If her mother didn't intend for her to be able to recoup out-of-pocket costs for medical treatment, why bother giving the gift in the first place? There's nothing spoiled about the poster thinking she can use a gift as it's designed.

    Every insurance policy that ever existed....

    If you make a claim you up the risk for the insurer, they will access you as a higher risk on your renewal and up you policy accordingly

    Health insurance companies also take into consideration something called "pre existing condition" If you had a spinal injury this would be considered a pre existing condition. They would note this, see you as a higher risk and up you policy accordingly

    Honest to god, this is pretty basic information, if you took out your own insurance policy you would of went through this.

    Health insurance premiums don't increase if you make a claim. I claimed almost €19,000 in 2010 from my health insurance with VHI and my premium has only gone up by the same percentage that they added on to everyones policy in 2010 (an extra €5 a month I think). Its not like motor insurance where if you make a claim you lose a no claims bonus.

    The worst aguments are with your late 20s sister who still hasn't grown up and still acts as if they're 13.

    Blames you for various crap going on in their lives which you have no control over. Goes on for months/years. Over the most stupest thing and gets all moody and bitchy.

    Shes loses a book, its my fault (blames me for taking it cause i dont want her doing well. Tears up the house to look for it and prove her wrong. Did she say sorry? NEVER).

    Order her something of the internet using my credit card. Just because i got the same thing delivered in a week, she gets all bitchy and moody at me it didn't come after a week. Some holiday or something in china where they couldn't post it, so it posted a bit later. Sister demanded her money back as she thought i kept it. Thing eventually came in the post. Did she say sorry? NEVER.

    I was losing weight, getting loads of compliments. She decides to join the same gym in so i can drive her. One day i was dying of a cold and out of nowhere she started some crap, i wouldn't drive her because i just didn't want her doing well. I was fking dying. Did she say sorry???

    Some xmas party she wanted to go to. Just because some guy smiled at her once and he was going to be there. I wanted to go too but the same week i got a rash all over my body, i was covered in it. So to say the least i didn't want to go. It was my fault she couldn't go. I never stopped her.

    Whenever i had to go somewhere and get ready, and if she knew. She would slow me down by going into the bathroom anf having a bath and she would be going nowhere. To fuk with me. I had enough of it so one day so i do the exact same thing and get into the bathroom before she goes. When i came out, she told me i should be wearing nappies!

    For weeks and weeks she would get up in the morning and leave her alarm on snooze. While i was still sleeping in the room. Not only that, she would switch the light on in the bedroom in the morning instead of using the hall light. Anything to wake me up. She couldn't care less. It was always about her.

    The last straw was when i was on my laptop one night, she was going to bed so i had to finish up just because she was going to bed. I didn't finish up. She flipped, started screaming at me while others were in bed. She just didn't care about anyone else. So i got fairly pissed off and asked her was she jealous of me. Cause she has always started every lttle piece of crap. I said something i probably shouldn't have but when someone uses crap for two years straight. I cupped my boobs and asked her was she jealous of my tits. One of hers never grew. But thats not my fault. I have crooked teeth, she has straight teeth (i never blamed her).
    So she threw her 18 stone on top of me and started hitting me. Punched me in my head until i was pumping blood. She just didn't care. Just a few months previously she wished me dead. I swear she would have done it too. Did she ever say sorry, NOT A HOPE.

    She has also kicked and thumped the animals just to get to me. Real childish behaviour. For years she would cut me off if i was ever talking to her, just a huff or a grunt.

    She has always thought she could do what she wanted and i'd always put up with it. I have nothing to do with her now. Not until she accepts what she has done wrong and apologise for the crap.

    You hate leaning your head back? So you hate the fact that you look down on people?

    All I said is that it sounded a bit scabby on her part and I could see her mams point of view.

    If you hate the smell of horse ****e go have a shower.
