ok its been a few weeks since i had my S1 nicked, and today i had to send keys and log book plus all associated paperwork off to the insurance company

does anybody know how long it takes from this stage to get my payout as the insurance company wont give me an answer, not even a rough one

and i have seen a car i want

pugo

 

iirc dont they wait for 3 months to see if the car is found?

 

last time it happend to me i had to send loads of clippins to confirm prices then took about 3 weeks

 

how longs a piece of string. Hope you get paid out soon buddy

 

if they find the shell itll be quicker if not then i think they have to wait 12 weeks.my mate only got £2k for his series2 about 3 months ago

 

mine was about 3 months....

 

depends if they value the car the same as you
in my experiance they can knock back your valuation and then
wait and see if you buckle at their low offer.
if its aggreed value your laughing

 

stay on them, they have a habbit of shelving cases.

As there is no 3rd party i would be asking for time scales and asking what procedures have to be taken there end and how long each takes, then call at regular intervals to make sure all is on track.

Was the value agreed, and that is not just how much you said your car was worth when taking out the policy, has to be an agreed value between you both.

 

Gutted for you mate, especially after coming all this way to get some rims for it only for some cunts to nick it

 

I waited 6 weeks and got a spanking offer but that was in 1990

 

finally got told today that the insurance has agreed my claim, they agree the value of the car.........and the cheques in the post

so 2 months from the day of reporting to them posting the cheque....i dont think thats actually that bad
