coming home from work, i get stuck behind a tesco home delivery van abd when the lights change the fooking doors open and drop 2 trays of crap on me car ( some poor fucker aint haveing food tonight )


i drive to inform em and say there driver should stop as no point doing deliverys, its on hall lane


now i got a few dents ( only minor tbh though ) on me car, what do i do about claiming off em , dont wanna go through insurance at all as there gonna right the car off i recon


can i just give me a invoice or claim without my insurance doing it



the manager was too busy to see me so just took my details and said she would call me tommorow



so what can i do


really got the hump about it now, i was laughing earlier though

 

you better av picked up the shoppin

Ring and speak to head office if the manager is no help and kick up a stink they should sort you out,

 

tbh if they pay for the blow over on the front end im happy, ill even accept payment in vouchers too as i fooking shop there

 

did the driver stop or just drive off with the doors open?

 

i hope you picked the shopping up
what car were you in and why would they write it off? if they did you may get to keep the car and the money. i would demande vochers too, its xmas so with food and beer etc, Ł500 vochers should do, min of course.
i have to say i would of demanded the manager there and then.

 

As for any vehicle on the road they must have valid insurance. Phone the head office tonight and tell them what has happened. Notify your insurers as well to be on the safe side.

 

i dont wanna notify my insurance, im not going to add more shit to my list of bad points on me details


he drove off as he never knew his door was open, i was flashing him and i also was gonna oevr take him and cut him up to stop but there was a speed camera

as for the car i was in m mates punto

me cossie os of the road till te brakes get sorted , that was lucky wasnt it


im gonna see what they do then sort it from there

 

Ginge

Wait for Manager to ring you tmoz, they will prob give you the address details to send quotes for the damage to.

In all honestly they will prob want tp pay you out directly too, as its not worth their excess................ although they are a pretty big company so they may well self-insure anyway.

But yeah, providing you got the details of the van that did it, I wouldn't panic, you'll get ya money

 

threaten them with the driver leaving the scene of an accident and say your gonna get the police involved

tesco vouchers galore

 

I wouldnt have left it with manager, Id have stayed there until at least you got written proof that they accept what happened and are looking into it.

I worked at sainsburys as a student, some poor guy used the jet wash just after the chemicals were topped up. They werent diluted at all. Stripped the paint straight off his car. All he got was Ł150, which was his excess on his insurance to get a respray. I think he accepted it too! I wouldve gone fooking ape!

 

tbh the driver never knew till i told the store and the driver was caled to tell him


they better not try and play funny fookers, i fooking kick a right stick if they do

i hope they will get it sorted as knowing my luck me mate will not have declared the shitty body kit on his car

 

are you defo insured to drive other cars????

is that why you wanna go outside insurance. no chance of that with a big company like tescos

good luck sorting it

 

I have big problems with my insurance companies and always have done. I dont deal with them anymore, I just pay out myself and do the contacting other insurers myself (and bill them for the calls), only keep insurance in case of a big accident and tax. If they offer vouchers then as you shop there, why not accept? I would!

 

yeah im deffo deffo insured to drive other cars, was a very important part of me policy, trust me


im gona see what they do, how do i go about contacting there insurance company without the insurance as i know they will still load the premium even though i have not claimed off them, thats why they ask any claims, that means others at fault too

i fookign hate insurance, i hope they sort it out though


good job im gonna get me brakes done as when i tell me mate in not gonna beable to use his car anymore , all i had to do was drive it home

 

geta nice quote uptogether for repair of bonnet, repaint bonnet and blend down wings, insist on your own approved spray centre, send in quotes for Ł450 approx, spend a couple gettin it sorted and put a couple in ya sky rocket for ya troubles

 

But you wont be using your insurance company to claim. So you dont need to quote it. The only reason they ask is it costs your insurance company time and money to defend you if you have an accident, but you do that for them and you do not need to quote it.

Tomorrow, go see the manager, dont wait for the call, she will have left work by 4pm knowing you will want a chat.

 

na ths tescos is 24 hours

rudey never made me jump, all i could think when it happened is thank fook i left the cossie at home this morning

thats why i couldnt get angry, too happy its not my car

richard, if its ok ill be asking you for assistance for what to do ect


apples quotes for repairs aint gonna be hard, its me getting me mate to forget about it so i can get me cossy sprayed up instead

 

no its a punto, hence the dented bonnet

 

take em to the cleaners your xmas dinner could be free this year

 

ignore the blonde then.

Ginge, get a quote and send them an invoice.

Had a similar instance years ago when a Citylink lorry hit a bridge and the debris ripped my tyre open on the motorway and fooked my alloy. Driver knew what he did and drove off. Rang their MD, shouted a lot, told them they had to pay for the damage and he told me to send them a quote and they would sort it out.

As I said before, chances are they self insure.

 

i neve ignored ya clare , thats what im gonna do if it dont go nice, i recon they might self insure too

 

jus ask for a sucky am sure she'd rather do that than paper work

 

Aas long as you dont take the piss with the quote ie: make sure its not over-exaggerated then im sure you'll have no problems getting them to cough up.

 

wel tbh if i get the bonnet sprayed ill be happy


200 quid to spray and fill the bonnet, then tbh ill be happy as long as i can get em to do it
