Repairs

I spoke to my insurance company this morning, ALLIANZ. For some reason they are getting a number of calls from concerning hail damage. This is not all that surprising really. The woman who I was speaking to on the phone had problems getting into work this morning thanks to train problems too.

When I said what road the car was in when it was damaged, she said ‘Ah, yes’ suggesting she had needed to deal with other claims from the same street. She let me know that my no claim bonus is protected, but there will be a $450 excess. Argh. They said I could go to any repairer and get them to arrange it all. I asked about preferred repairers and they suggested on in Ingleburn. Perfect.

So then I went down there and got a quote, $2,335. This was not all that surprising. What did surprise me was that they can do the repair on Friday for me. On thursday they are getting the car in the morning for an assesment, and then will have the car back to me sometime friday afternoon. This is what I like. They are going to be using some type of paintless repair technique. Excellent.

So I guess I will have a car this weekend to do more building 🙂
