Gee, thanks for all the condsending PM's I got from you all about me and my upline being wrong about the health insurance. First, I never said I got my information from my upline. It was from a lady that had been to the Fling...and below is her direct quote.

There are 2 plans
One is a discount plan (savings onvision, dental, chiropractic & prescriptions)and the other is more of a medical savings plan. Folks, it ain'tBlue Cross/Blue Shield -- but it's better than nothing and a lot better than some self-employed insurance plans I've seen out there. I'm excited that they are offeringthis. THey will also be coming out with a plan to cover catastrophic illness -- cancer, heart attack, organ transplants. The way they talked about it is that you may have to do a second mortgage on your house to cover the deductible, but you won't lose your house. I'll get out the brochures theygave us and write back later. They are also offering a home business insurance, but I think it's basically for those who live in PA.
That is what was told to me, not only by her, but several others that had been there.
I guess we will all have to wait until the company makes the announcement to all of us about it, and gives all the information.
It was nice posting here, but I will not be part of a group who sends PM's, accuses and then gloats over someone being wrong, when infact, none of you know for sure what is going on.
Much success to all ....

Nan don't let those few here who are high and mighty ruin this board for you.
I think this is gettin out of hand with people here who think its their duties to inform everyone of what is right and wrong with this company. Go ahead and slam me, pm me if u like, but do not be rude to other reps in this company who are just trying to give info out. Edited by: BamaSweetScents

I'm sorry that other reps have felt the need to make nasty comments to you, that is very unfortunate and very unprofessional. Please know that not all of us are as petty.

Nan-
I think your original post may have confused some people and they were just wanting some clarification since you were the original poster.
HealthInsurance, Medical Savings Plans and Medical Discount Plans are3 totally seperate things. Although I am grateful for any benefits offered through corporate, Health Insurance would have been the ultimate. I believe many felt the sameas seenby their excitement following your post. We believed it was Health Insurance (as posted).....Period. Not a savings plan, not a discount plan....
I am grateful for the information you provided however, it just may have been worded incorrectly which lead to confusion.

I just looked at Nan's original post. The first item clearly states that it's a medical discount program. I think many people think that medical discount programsand health insuranceare one and the same when in fact they aren't. I don't think it's fair to Nan for anyone to take the liberty of "shooting the messenger". As she stated, she was simply passing along information. Anyone whoneeds clarification or has questions or concerns should've taken it up with the company or their upline,rather than hold Nan accountable.

Actually Connie,the postclearly states a medical discount program (#2)and ALSO health insurance. (#3)I think that's where the confusion came in.
I don't think anyone is "shooting the messenger", and I don't think it's wrong to ask for clarification from the original poster. If you posted something that I was unsure about or heard differently about, I would ask you directly for clarification BEFORE running to corporate.

Nothing wrong with asking for clarification, but one can stilldo sowith respect to the person giving the info. Apparently that didn't happen in Nan's case. Personally, any info about product/company changes wouldn't be perceived by me as etched in stone until I get official word from my sponsor or Corporate, so that's where I'd go first for clarification--but that's just me. smileys/smiley1.gif
