mecca1411 - there's no finance on the car, it's mine and the insurance have all my documents they said I had to send them in before they would consider any claim....did take photocopies though! |
Thats very odd! In my trade I see all sorts of RTC's and damaged cars and i dont remember any insurance company ever asking for original documents during the process of a claim. Photocopies for solicitors, yes. But not originals.

Very sorry to hear about this mate
I'm also insured through Hastings/underwritten by advantage and when i had my claim on my car at no point did they ask for any documents, apart from v5's etc when the vehicle was deemed a write off.
As one post said above, don't take any BS. It took them 3 weeks to even look at my car after my accident when they promised an engineer out the next day.
Considering we pay them a fair bit they don't half look for any excuse to do anything but their job.

Don't we have a member on here that works in an insurance claims department? Think it was Dopey and I'm sure they once mentioned they worked for Hastings. Not seen them on for a while, but you could always try a PM and see if you get a reply.
