Colabamumbai Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I had a car accident accepted blame. Party had insurance adjuster come to scene, he also demanded 30,000 Bhat in lost work wages re his truck. All parties were paid cash, all signed off at the police station that they were ok with everything. Now one year later this party's insurance company is demanding over 100,000 Bhat, which they are not going to get. What is their game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AAInsuranceBrokers Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Sorry but your explanation is not totally clear. From what you said you had an accident, that you caused, so the other party called their insurance company and they sent out their engineer. Question, did you call your insurance company and did they send out an engineer on your behalf ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question, did you call your insurance company and did they send out an engineer on your behalf ? No I called the lady who sold me the car who explained that the car being 15 years old was not insured against damage to other vehicles only if the parties required hospital services, none did, when I bought the car she transferred the insurance to my name or she said she did and told me that it was insured. It is not unexpected to be lied to in Thailand. So no insurance adjuster was sent to see my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lying and having a licence are neither here nor there. I make sure I have proper insurance because I dont want any hassle if I have an accident. It's as simple as that. For this reason, and this reason alone, I would not drive a vehicle anywhere if I suspected that it had anything other than full first-class insurance.

NanLaew Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 All parties were paid cash, all signed off at the police station that they were ok with everything. Now one year later this party's insurance company is demanding over 100,000 Bhat, which they are not going to get. All parties signed off? Possibly that someone who claimed to have been from the insurers and accepting the cash on behalf of the insurers didn't actually give your money to the insurers? As for accepting the sellers word about not being eligible for full coverage and that minimum (mandatory government) coverage was 'transferred' along with the blue book...?

Pralaad Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) If i read correctly the parties who signed off was the other car. The same party who wanted 30 000 for lost wages. So it is safe to assume he signed off on getting the money for the lost wage and then lodged the claim with insurance for the damaged car, Why on earth you would call the previous owner is beyond me, just as why you would leave it with the previous owner to transfer non existing insurance, just as why you would not take out at least 3rd party insurance, just as you not having any paperwork, policy or anything to contact in case of accident Edited July 4, 2014 by Pralaad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
