Got into accident last week,with a taxi,not my fault
How to proceed TPPD claim against taxi?
The saman already issue to the driver,so all I have to wait is the keputusan from polis?
*
If saman alrdy out against the other driver, means keputusan should be against him...

Send a letter to insurance company complaint department to inform them about the incident

Give them deadline like 14 days upon which you will proceed to complaint to bank negara

Once escalate to bank negara, both insurance company and workshop will back down fast
*
Have to escalate cause the entire chain is on the take, workshop/adjuster etc all in on it....

Thats why whenever I go workshop for accident case, i will have various demand.. fix other unrelated stuff etc... cause I know they WILL markup like gila. They dont agree I will take my car to another workshop.

Hello.. i would like to ask a question.. someone hit my car, and she admit her fault and claim her insurance.. that ok..

the question is during my car got hit, im not the one who driving and the car driver do not have driver name on my car insurance.. can i still claim her insurance?
*
I know this is a difference case but..

Even if un-named driver driving yoru car.. and even if HE hit someone else.

You Still can claim your insurance... just pay a penalty of 300~400 Ringgit....

no clear guideline

some insurance company is notoriously slow in approving the claim

the best you can do is keep on calling, at least once a week, to follow up the progress

+1

Get those decent company like AiG/Allianz then u wont have an issue...

hi.. i think more than rm5,000 on the bumper and fender..NCD is just 25% from 3k...
*
Huh? So much?

My mom changed bumper once for the new City.. 1~1.5k all in I think.

Also NCD dont assume its only 25%, there is a trickle down effect... you have to do a 5 yr calculation...

Like my wife car if she loses the NCD, it will cost her about 10k+ all in before getting back to the 55%...

My last experiencce was 1 week car go in and car come out. (but not honda)

Replace bumper, headlight, etc etc... total claim just below 10k

buddy, would you mind to share abit more? What insurance co is that
and how can you proceed it that fast. As honda bp told me it might takes 1 month!! 2 days to submit estimates, 5 - 7 days for insurance co (zurich) for approval, and another 5 days to replace the bumpers and headlight.
*
Hmm... I always used Allianz (except recently 1 of my cars tried AiG cause they give a cheaper rate).

Allianz have (not sure still) a system where you do online claim for anythign below $10,000 hence they dont need an adjuster to see the car etc, this saved a LOT of time.

pretty much that is your only choice

OD-KFK can only be done if the other party is a m/car with comprehensive policy

the only choice to avoid losing NCD is TPPD

but it involve adjuster evaluation, lawyer, court process, and no guarantee the other party is financially capable to pay the court judgement
*
This is what is ridiculous with Malaysian law.

Last time my fren's car got knock into by a Volvo with no insurance no roadtax... luck the guy paid my fren 2k to settle...

Can sue that guy...but the cost could be high

If that loser cant afford to pay, you will incur more cost in the form of time wasted/legal fees.

he got compound for no road tax + no insurance + hitting from behind

most likely RM300 x 3 = RM900
*
RM900... vs the loss of NCD (if for me) would cost me around RM10,000 until i get back 55%

my car was hit from the back and the impact was so big that I hit the car infront as well.
My question is there anyway to prevent the front car to claim my insurance since is not my fault and instead claim the insurance from the car that hit me?

Sandwich accident usually the last car kena claim/lose NCD...

Last time I was the 3rd car in a 4 car pileup... didnt lose my NCD

nope, filling the claim is a right and you can't take it away

whether to allow it depends on the claim officer or judge(if file in court)

what you can do is obtain a copy of siasatan police which stated the car at back at fault

in the event you found out your NCB hilang, you call the claim officer and argue with them, insist them to restore your NCD since siasatan police shows car at back is at fault

but usually in chain collision, car at the back will be the one at fault and insurance company/lawyer/workshop will automatically claim against the last car
*
sometimes the insurance try to take advantage.

Initially i found out Allianz void my NCD... until I went to their office and make a fuss.. then the officer apologize say he entered the "wrong claim code" what a load of BS...

This is new car and 1st insurance policy. Policy amount 129k.. Once accident happen they said my policy not agreed value policy so need to follow market value and offer 82k..loan at bank 120k and full settlement would be 103k. Why brand new car they never offer agreed value policy. The agent useless. Any option
*
Nothing much you can do. Proceed to argue/negotiate with the insurance company.

Infact alot of people op to insure lower and not take AV insurance for a lower premium.....

Thats why I insure with Allianz/AIG cause its all about AV.. no need to argue when accident happens..

make sure you get a copy of CCTV footage ASAP as evidence

and clearly mention model/colour of car in your police report

if police tells you cannot claim insurance for accident occurred in car park, tell him to read back the latest road transport act
*
Alot.. and i mean ALOT of people still think "private property" accident cannot claim... really dumb...

I personaly experienced accident in basement parking lot... still claim

Fault is measured by percentage by police and judge

For example, she speed at parking area, 15% at fault

You exit from car park to main road, 85% at fault

Hence in this case you are more to be blame, that's why police compounded you

By honest view, even if you dispute the compound and seek a trial in court, most like the magistrate will come to similar decision as per police
*
This measurement is how whenever we kena accident with motorbike... they will claim personal injuries and we lose our NCD... even if its 95% their fault...
