cigna sucks?

  • Question: If everyone did a blog post saying “Cigna Sucks!” or “Screw you CIGNA!” would that get to the front page of the WSJ/NYT? Would it impact CIGNA’s stock price?! Would it get to the #1 result on Google for Cigna ABOVE Cigna’s own home page?!

    I wonder what would happen if 1,000 or 10,000 bloggers did a post what impact that would have on how CIGNA treats people?

    I wonder what would happen if 100,000 folks did this blog post/Twitter/Facebook/MySpace post?

    What is 1M people did it!?!?

  1. Our company just got this insurance (thanks assholes!) Now I
    have to change my doctor who I have seen for over 20 years
    and my drugstore. Cigna sucks big time….

  2. Cigna requires that representatives talk to people that call in for assistance with benefits, eligiblity or claims 2 minutes. They berate reps for “engaging the caller with idle chit chat”. Their metrics show that by talking extensivly over 2 minutes costs them 400,000 overall per minute. They don’t want to pay for customer service because it eats into their overhead
