dr_mat 0 Posted October 7, 2004 For who? "Auto Insurance Company"? You have his numberplate? Call your insurer and tell them his numberplate, they will handle the rest. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
khurrado 0 Posted October 7, 2004 I have the number plate of the car that crashed into me, not the platte on his policy. I 4got to take it down like a plank. And i cant find the insurance company/broker anywhere, been searching all voer the net and my insurance dont even know who they are Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted October 7, 2004 The number plate of the car that crashed into you is enough. Tell them he gave you incomplete details, or even that you lost the paper or something. Your insurance company can trace his insurance company just from the number plate of the car.... Or do you mean he was driving the car without insurance, or under his "drive any car" policy?

Or do you mean he was driving the car without insurance, or under his "drive any car" policy? yup, it wasnt the car listedn on hi sp olicy, he hasd 3rd part voer on the car that crashed into me, and now hes refusing to give me the car registered to his policy, telling me to call the police etc etc etc my insurance tried calling him and he fobbed them off, and now hes fbbing me off too. Further to my old posts, if you had read them, you can understand y i considered taking the crow bar to head approach. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted October 7, 2004 Ok, call your insurer, and give them the details you have. They will trace the owner of the car the guy was driving (since you've got the number plate), and then if the owner refuses to name the actual driver, they will be prosecuted themselves.. Leave it up to the insurance company - there's nothing more you can do if they guy refuses to play ball. You can also give them the name and phone number of the guy who was driving. Basically just hand over everything you have and wait.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jedi-knight83 0 Posted October 7, 2004 put his name and number up on the forum, do you have his address? im sure someone will go and pay him a vist / set fire to his house :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My uinsurance cant find the company, and so im going to the police now(as advised) IMHO your insurance company should be chasing this. It's their responsibility to claim the damages back from the third party insurer, not yours. They should be the ones taking the matter through the police, requesting the details, etc...

seanoVR 0 Posted October 7, 2004 Since he is so quick to try and settle on his own without informing the insurance companies, it sounds as though he may be uninsured, hence the bogus insurance company no-one can find........ :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
khurrado 0 Posted October 7, 2004 They quote me for replacing rear panel and rear bumper incl labour and respray at £1230 I just spoke to the guy again and explained about the court precedings etc etc etc and the inevitability of masses of cash he will have to cough up for my legal fees his own and the car repairs etc and he agreed on inusrance but he still wouldnt give me his insurtances' number. I give up. Ive seriously had enough. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted October 7, 2004 So he agreed to put it on his insurance, and he *still* won't give you the details?? WTF? He's wasting your time, hand it to the police and your insurer and tell them to sort it out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jedi-knight83 0 Posted October 8, 2004 if he has accepted liability i think you can just take him to court personally....small claims court type of thing... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
khurrado 0 Posted October 8, 2004 if he has accepted liability i think you can just take him to court personally....small claims court type of thing... he heasnt accepted liability to my insurance, and he will not tell me inurance his reg no and insurance details and he wont acswer my calls, and the inevitabiltiy is that if ever he turns his phone off im Fukd Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aide 0 Posted October 8, 2004 would recommend you call your local Citizens Advice Bureau, they're geared to advising on indiviual rights in situations like this. ....but as stated above definitely tell the police about the accident, like NOW so you can get a crime reference number. small claims courts used to take ages, and are held in whichever locality the defendant is registered at - if he's a dodgy sod he'll eithe be 'of no fixed abode', or handily register his address (and therefore local court) hundreds of miles away from where you live just to make it difficiult - and then its your word against him, unless you got witnesses?
