Not at-fault Don’t claim on your insurance




Yes that’s right – don’t claim on your insurance! Save yourself some money and probably get better service too, by letting us help you make your car accident claim independently of your insurer.


Why non-fault car insurance claims can cost you money

Car insurance companies base the cost of your insurance on many factors, including your age, where you live etc. But one of the key factors in determining how much of a ‘risk’ you are – is how likely you are to have another accident.

Even if you were not at-fault for an accident and you make a claim, your insurer will consider you to be ‘more of a risk’ than if you didn’t make the claim at all.

Consequently, the cost your future insurance will almost certainly increase.

In addition to this, it is very likely you will have to pay any excess you have on your policy up-front, before they will authorise the repairs to your vehicle.

You should be able to claim this money back at a later date, but this is could be weeks or even months later when the claim is finally resolved with the at-fault party’s insurer.

No need to claim on your insurance

Anyone who has been involved in a road accident has the right to choose who repairs their vehicle. If you were responsible for the accident you were involved in, the company that insures your vehicle would normally deal with your accident claim.

However if you were not at-fault for the accident, you can choose to either claim on your own insurance policy or make a claim independently of your insurer. To find out more call 02392 484 244 and we will be happy to help.

No excess to pay

Unfortunately even if an accident was not your fault, your insurer will almost certainly require you to pay your excess before any repair is started on your car.

This money should of course be recovered by an insurer at a later date, but with our service - you do not have to pay it at all.

By using our independent claims service, you are not making a claim on your insurance policy and so you will have no excess to pay.

Receive a comparable replacement hire vehicle

Not all insurance policies will include a replacement hire-car for you to use if yours is damaged and unroadworthy. In fact it is typically an 'optional extra' on your policy.

Other policies may offer a 'courtesy car' but this is often just a 'basic' saloon or hatchback which may not be suitable for your needs.

Car Call and its partners will provide a comparable replacement vehicle as part of our service. This means we will endeavour to supply a hire-vehicle that similar to your own in terms of its type, make and engine size.

So whether you drive a small hatchback or a prestige sports car, we will look to provide a similar hire-vehicle that suits your needs.
