they claimed that i dun have to pay a single cent at all n gave me a car to drive while awaiting repairs for my car.
does such gd deals exist? i'm rather sceptical...![]()
the workshop told me everything will be claimed from the taxi's insurance, wont involve my insurance at all. i was wondering how true is that...Originally posted by allentyb:![]()

as long, someone hit you from behind, its their fault
and........ now its not that you don't need to pay a single cent, its your insurance company is paying for the repair now,![]()
as long it is not more than 20% then it will not affect your NCD.........Originally posted by tetsumi:the workshop told me everything will be claimed from the taxi's insurance, wont involve my insurance at all. i was wondering how true is that...
they said the repair cost, car replacement cost n towing will all be claimed from the taxi's insurance n wont touch my insurance at all n wont affect my NCD n such.
is it a gimmick or wat?
sounds a bit too gd to be true...
now the problem is although my car was stationary, the impact caused my car to move forward n hit the car in front.Originally posted by paperx:in the case of accident... if someone bang your car, or is at fault.. all the cost or repair will be paid from the other party's insurance company..
so.. your yearly insurance wont increase.. but the other party will..
oh yah... juz to add...Originally posted by allentyb:now depends on what the examiner said, your case is very clear cut, on who is at fault,
Yes it does happens. If they say can't claim 100%, it is mainly due to an over-priced quotations claim.Originally posted by tetsumi:anyway, juz to summarise wat the workshop told me:
- wont affect NCD
- wont involve my car's insurance at all
- hired lawyer for me
- no charges for towing
- no charges for repair cost
- free car to drive while awaiting repair
- able to claim 90% to 100% of the total damage cost
(if cant claim 100%, the workshop will absorb the balance amt)
- all charges to be claimed from the taxi's insurance company
- dun have to pay a single cent for the whole procedure (everything)
got such gd stuff?
really appreciate the replies u guys give... thanks!!!![]()
wah soundsystem like a bit overboard leh...Originally posted by drumstick:In a chain collesion, its always the last vehicle pays all..
Mai tu liao... ask the workshop add for your new bumper+new body kits+ a few more accessories.
It will all be claim from the taxi.
Your NCD will not be involved at all.
How I wish a taxi will bang my butt, I sure will ask the maximum stuff.
Negotiate with the workshop, ask them to help you. Or maybe can even change a new soundsystem inside .
Free upgrades worth up to 1.5k is in your hand, dun waste it.. lolz..
Depending on the damage cost, they can do alot of funny excess to top it up.
There are alot of ways to get the insurance to pay more. It depends on how good the repo with the surveyor is. Coz in the end is the surveyor who will submit the report.Originally posted by tetsumi:wah soundsystem like a bit overboard leh...
i juz want back my car the way it was...
but i scare repair here repair there, the car wont seem the way it was...
the feeling when u drive will be different...
but so easy to chop carrot ah?
i tot IDAC will come n take pics n assess the car?
er.. i don't get youOriginally posted by g11259:HI !
To ask, if there is a chain accident , says 5 cars, but the practice the last car is at fault. But what if the last car only bang the 4th car, and the rest in front he is not at fault.
The last car jammed brakes and bang only into the 4th car. If this is the car, will there be a case to fight in court ? The damage of the last car is very minimum. which can prove that the small damage cannot cause the chain accident.
Anyone pls advice.
Thks

wat he means is if u sway, ppl bang finish liao den u pajiao go bang the [ 4 ] backside, wil u be paying for the whole chain?Originally posted by Vigelic:er.. i don't get you
chain of 5 cars looks like this: [ 1 ][ 2 ][ 3 ][ 4 ][ 5 ]
then u say "but what if the last car only bang the 4th car" - er look at the "drawing" above. the 5th car obviously only bang the 4th car. it's called "chain" because 4th bang 3rd, 3rd bang 2nd, 2nd bang 1st. so i don't understand what u mean by 5th car bang 4th car and the rest in front he is not at fault..![]()

But in the first place when you about to stop did you signal right or switch on your hazard light?Originally posted by tetsumi:the workshop told me everything will be claimed from the taxi's insurance, wont involve my insurance at all. i was wondering how true is that...
they said the repair cost, car replacement cost n towing will all be claimed from the taxi's insurance n wont touch my insurance at all n wont affect my NCD n such.
is it a gimmick or wat?
