What Are Peoples Experience With Just Cars?

[W0rp3D]

Just wondering what peoples experiences are?

Just got rear ended by a tosser in a vy, do they let you choose your repairer, if so does anyone know someone around the frankston area who will fix some peeling clear for cash there way, pm me if you do.

Sorry to hear bout the accident man. Must be cut. As far as Just Car goes i think they only let you use your choice of repairer if the quote u get is cheaper than they get from their choice of repairers

[Taso84]

you can take it to 2 of their repairers and if the qutoes are not too different, you can choose which one you want to work on your car

Interesting. When I got hit I had it towed to a repairer I chose, they submitted a quote to Just Cars, the inspector came out and okayed it. I didn't need to take it anywhere else.

This was in '05 though.

I think they let you choose, provided their preference is too far away.

Other than that, they're pretty good - i got wiped out by a guy with no insurance, and when he refused to sign anything official saying he was uninsured, they were cool about it. I think they called him and got (tricked) him into admitting he was uninsured. But the bottom line is, they looked after me, and that jerk possibly has no house now.

Any else have to pay the excess up front, they didnt mention it when i called them today.

They said i have to get 2 quotes and atleast 1 of them has to be from there approved repairer, the two they gave me were seaford panels and frankston accident repair centre, i have heard good things about seaford panels any body had any work done at the other?

if you got full comp, and someone went up your arse, wont they be chasing him up for the money for you?

[W0rp3D]

Yes but you still have an excess you have to pay, mine is $500.

[dezz]

You only pay an excess when you're at fault, or when you can't identify the party at fault...

sweet, she said that it would be listed as "not at fault" so its all good then.

[some_cs_student]

^^^ as per dezz's post, but companies like AAMI make sure you get a letter of the 3rd party advising in writing that they do not have insurance at the time.

Once done your car gets fixed, your rating won't be touched, but you have the joy of telling each new potential insurer about your "not at fault accident"

i was hit when i had my 33 last year and was insured with just cars. as llama_au my car was sent directly to my panel shop. the submitted a quote and the car was fixed a week after the incident. so was very happy.

[antonio]

Ok, from my experiences only a few months ago..

The insurance company will ask for a quote from a set of repairers, most insurance company's used VACC Approved Repairers so if the person who you plan on doing the work is approved then they can just send there quote to the insurance company and its easy done.

For my circumstance where i wanted to take it elsewhere that wasnt approved to the insurance company i told them i would prefer to get it fixed at my own repairer so they paid me out into my bank account then i took the car to DT Panels

been insured with just car for 6 yrs now and had good experience in accident situations but not when my 34 got stolen, gave me bit of hell for 6 weeks b4 they paid out. had 2 cars written off by them b4 hand, was a 33 and an 80 model scorpion.

but other than that, good experience

[ShyBoi]

have my 33 insured with them and i work for them, so any questions u got just PM me...

[ShyBoi]

we get a quote from a repairer of our choice and one from your own if you want to...

we dont base the decision on the cheapest repairer

as someone said above sometimes if your repairer is closer and easier to get to we'll just send out an assessor to check your car and book it in ur repairer...but it all depends on the situation no home jobs

and we do deal with VACC repairers
