Just had final resolution on an insurance claim against my wife. Too long a story to post in one go so thought I would provide bulletins (from the past).



Received letter (Feb 2017) from claims management company stating my PCP Panda ( I know, but £99 a month no deposit) , but driven by wife, had been involved in an accident but failed to stop. Letter requested insurance details. Checked with wife - no knowledge of accident, checked car no bumps, bruises or scrapes - good as new.

E-mailed claims management company with above info -told them I would not be providing info. requested

Admitting the wife was their may be the final nail in the coffin.

Admit to nothing as it may be easier for your insurance just to roll over pay out a few thousand rather than fight your corner (they aren't in it for you but themselves).

Waited a couple of weeks , then call from our insurers saying claim had been made. Said no accident had occurred and sent photos. Insurer said they would send assessor around to check the car.

Why do we keep stoking the flames? shoot

Just ignore this boring old fart and hopefully this thread will die (a very well deserved) death.

Ok I will hurry up. Assessor visited, agreed no damage to Panda. Followed up with call to insurers. Claim was for Vito taxi wife had damaged so badly owner wanted to take of road for repairs. Asked for location, and wife remembers taxi - get worried, but describes how she was parked in end parking space on road and when she returned there was a black can parked her on double yellows behind her nearly touching. She pulled out without incident.

Six weeks in (sorry it feels like longer) witness statement which describes how wife had tried to reverse into space between cab and another car. Also stating cab was not on yellows. Ok so now lying witness . Wife asked for formal statement etc by insurer this provided. Also we were told that insurer has refused to pay for hire car to replace damaged tax whilst off road.
