This Insurance Firm Sucks!
Hi QLers!
I just need a bit of advice on this one.
I went back from vacation last January. The first day going back to work, my car got banged hard at the right side by an egyptian guy after he drove straight in a small round-about without stopping to look.
I took the accident lightly and gave a civil tone all the time. Vacation did benefit me a lot. Police report got finished fast.
Now that I am back to work, I got my car sent to be fixed in a servicing garage.
Well, since January 26 until present, my car still has not been fixed yet. I found out that the insurance of the other party was a bad one. This I knew from other people. It is an egyptian insurance company and it is reputed that they hardly pay people.
Upon learning about them, i called them and they told me that they wanted more quotations, because it is a 2005 model!
I believe that they just want to get the lowest price. Well, i understand why, but it is just that I am the one doing this for them!
Was it not that i'm THE VICTIM here?
So this got me to think:
- How can this type of insurance company exist in this country when they are very strict in everything else?!!!
- How can car companies work with such a bad insurance company?!!!
The car is still in a service garage until today. And nothing is happening!
I already gave the police report, insurance copy, and a quotation!
What the hell i'm gonna do now? I don't have a car! waaaaaaah! aAAAAH!!! :-(
Hai-YA! (now upset and hitting other people's cars) Hai-YA! Hai-YA!
Please help!
Or your car is next!!! (hehehe)
i think if you go to minstry of economy and commerce, and complain they will solve yr issue.
what i know its usually 3 quotations only as Dweller mentioned above. try reporting it to the police, what i know is that they are now try to crack down on those insurance firm that is giving a hard time on their customer.
another option if your car insurance is comprehensive, why not try to approach them. maybe they could give you a helping hand in this case.
Egyptians are horrible creatures LOL!!!!!!
changed over the years.
At one time you had to get 3 quotations for repair. (two of your choice and one of the other party)
Generally, the reputable garages would send you to the main agent first for a quote and then add 10% to that price. This obviously protected the reputable main agents.
Have you been back to the police and explained what's happening?
I hope you get it sorted quickly.
