If u addon windscreen during insurance renewal usually they dont ask for photo...they will only ask photo if u suddenly addon windscreen after u renew insurance.

I guess if you take screen insurance when renew and within the year you claimed insurance for broken screen, then you need to take photo as proof that you replaced it of you top-up to continue to have coverage for the remaining car insurance coverage.

No need for photos if you bought windscreen insurance from when your car is new.

If yours is an old car without windscreen insurance but want to insure it now then you have to submit photos.

This is to prevent cheating. There are dishonest people who buy it after the windscreen cracked and then make a claim.

People with hairline crack renew insurance with windscreen coverage and after a while just whack the glass to claim insurance usually.

My CR-V's windscreen recently cracked. I insured it from new.

I just make an appointment with the anthorised dealer, submit the documents, sign a form and they do the rest. By end of the working day I got the car back. 😊

Change is very fast. Average around 1 ~ 1.5 hour can replaced.

Change windscreen obviously will need to take photo after changed (for claim ofcourse) regardless u topup or no topup.. that will be done by the windscreen specialist shop.
Like i've said, they will trust u no cheat them. if found out u in deep trouble.

Insurance tracked your record. If always have replacement, then they will start scrutinized. Same like credit card companies. Something out of pattern, then they will even call.

The truth is, they didnt check but only archive your images for fraud purposes, if they found out you fraud, only will send you letter je.
They will proceed with your claim, but
your NCD will be 0%.

you cant outgame the insurance company,
Eventually you need to pay them for a long run
but last time i claim the windshield, it's quite easy though.
Jangan la so surprise of the attempt illegal insurance claim in the Malaysia.
Boleh buat but dont talk publicly la
cari hal saje

Fraud is common. As long as their balance sheets have healthy margin, no problem. Otherwise they will increase the premium. Like TNB, because others are cheating, the rest of us have to pay for it. rclxub.gif
