#1: insurance jokers Author: copey, Location: rochdalePosted: Thu Jul 29, 2010 9:35 am ---- well i finally got me car back today, upon getting it back (filthy after a supposed wash) i decided to get it back home and wash it.....then noticing further damage i had missed out....spoke to my insurance company and they rang the garage who say the front wing couldnt have been scuffed and dented by the incident, even tho the rear quarter was hit in a parking space, scuffs all the way down the bump strips upto the wing.
so its either a case of i misssed the damage in the first instance.....or the insurance approved garage has caused the damage...not very happy

#3: Re: insurance jokers Author: copey, Location: rochdalePosted: Thu Jul 29, 2010 9:53 am ---- yeh not impressed they did try to tell me the cracked rear light wasn related to the inncident....even tho rear quarter alloy and bumper were all affected...altho they backed down on that, but u can see the scuff marks all down the side bump strips to the wheel and wing, the alloy to be fair just looks kerbed and not like that was related to the accident.
after speaking to them again, they app have photos to proove it was already like that, but they still think its not related to the inncident

So in my opinion the garage must have done it after they had quoted for the work. Either that or they are really honest....which i doubt
#7: Re: insurance jokers Author: copey, Location: rochdalePosted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 5:07 am ---- thats my exact theory...as there going to ge paid regardless, im going to give the women who hit the car a call ( as i weren't in the car at the time) to see if she can remember wether or not she hit the wing
thats my exact theory...as there going to ge paid regardless, im going to give the women who hit the car a call ( as i weren't in the car at the time) to see if she can remember wether or not she hit the wing
so she hit your wing, bounced off and continued to hit the rear quarter on the way by but the front wing was a scrap? I can see the garages reasoning for it not being part of the accident
#9: Re: insurance jokers Author: copey, Location: rochdalePosted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 12:42 pm ---- well i figured it would be part of the accident, but spoke to the lady who did the damage and it wasnt, so its down to them doing it, also kerbing one of my wheels quite considerably....i can easily tell nothing will come of it, but ah well
