(I live in australia.) about 2 weeks ago i backed into an old lady's car in a carpark. there was a small tennis ball sized dent in her drivers door. i said - it looks like its going to be cheaper to fix this privately rather than thru insurance. so i said get a couple of quotes and get in contact with me. i get a phone call from her husband who said he had it quoted at approx $750, i replied, let me call my insurance company tomorrow to find out what my excess is and i'll call you tomorrow. my excess turns out to be $900, i tried to contact the gentleman three times the next day but wasn't able to speak to him. today i opened my mail and found a bill for 1050 dollars from his insurance company. the work has already been completed and ii'm not happy with the fact that i didn't even see a quote and he went to his insurance company and they fixed it and now i'm supposed to pay. what do i do - do i just pay the excess and get my insurance to pay or is there another option?

This accident happened 2 weeks ago? It is, and I mean it is, impossible for an insurance company to process a claim that quickly. By the time the customer gets the vehicle into the shop, the estimate is done, parts are ordered, repair (including painting) is done, invoicing to the insurance company is sent, the insurance company verifies the billing, processes it through their accounts receive ables, pays the shop and then sends the bill to you far exceeds 2 weeks. So what else are you going to exaggerate about?

Oh no....looks like you got swindle for the insurance. You shld contact your insurance legal on this. I had similar experience but my insurance company sorted it out for me. After this, you can get in touch with the insurance company here -> http://www.payamgostar.com/get-that-cheap-motors/
