I had a crash this morning (rear ended someone so my fault)... did all the usual of exchanging details etc and got off...
Few questions:
If she claims and i don't do i still have to pay my excess??
How long can i leave it before i claim on my car??
Thanks

Could always try settling out of insurance depending on the car you crashed into.
Its ok ive sorted it now...
Still a bit puzzled on something else now though if anyone can help.... I phoned up and made a claim and they went through the usual rubbish about ref number, which garage etc etc and then it came to the excess bit (read carefully lol)!!
The voluntry excess says £0 on one form and then £300 on another due to me being under21... so i was ok with the £300... then the chap goes onto say you have to pay £500 accidental damage ON TOP of the £300 excess totaling to £800!! I jst agree with this 'cos im in a state of shock and we end the convo and he's sending some forms out...
My lovely mother then phones back up and has a word about it and the chap goes away for a bit and says flux have put the £800 excess on it no us.... Question is, is this right??
Insurance company in question is NIG through flux... two good companies in my eyes in terms of mods and premiums but don't ever crash when with these....

If you dont claim for damage to your car you DO NOT pay the excess, excess only applies to damage to the vehicle insured.
There isnt really any time limit but they might drag their feet a bit, most will get funni after say 6 months , i deal wi claims if u need any help give is a shout
