What is a car insurance excess?
A car insurance excess is the fixed amount you will be required to pay towards making a car claim on your car insurance policy. Depending on the circumstances of the incident that led to your claim, the amount of access payable will vary on a number of factors and may have to pay more than one excess.
For more information please contact your insurance company.
If I claim on my insurance will I have to pay an excess even though I am not at fault?
In any given car accident, when making a car insurance claim it is important to address who had caused the accident. This is important because the driver at-fault is required to pay the costs affiliated with the accident.
This may include:
- Towing
- Smash Repairs
- Car Part Replacements
- Car Hires
A no-fault accident is one that meets the following criteria:
- the driver of another vehicle (or another person) was entirely at fault, and
- you provide the at-fault driver’s full name, address, and vehicle registration number.
If I've had more than one car accident, can I include them in one car claim?
Unfortunately, no. Car insurance companies class every car accident as a separate car insurance claim.
Can I tell my car insurance company where I want my vehicle repair?
Depending on your car insurance company, the choice of where your car will get repaired will typically be a smash repair partner. However, you can always request for more information and clarification regarding their proposed smash repair business. In any case, you can always enquire and suggest a smash repair business of your choosing.
At Parramatta Smash Repair, we highly recommend that you enquire for more information on the smash repair business that is repairing your car after a car accident.
Can I claim against the other party’s insurer?
Yes, you can claim against the other party’s car insurance company. However, this process can cause delays for numerous reasons.
If you were clearly not the driver at-fault in a car accident you will have a strong claim. We recommend that you leave it to your car insurance company to make the counterclaim.
At Parramatta Smash Repairs, we have had experience in many car accidents, and handling a claim through your own insurer is usually more convenient and time effective as they will be directly working with you and your smash repair business.
While having to deal with a third party insurer, you may not receive the same degree of flexibility in the choice of smash repair business as well as the time involved to restore and repair your vehicle.
