Bully Tactics

<p>Heavy traffic Paarden Eiland..stationary and I get hit hard from behind. Other driver has no insurance, no drivers license and admits liability.<br />I phoned my own insurance who advised me to rather use them and their legal department would recoup monies from the other party. ALL GOOD AND WELL.</p> <p>Until..... the repair quote exceeded 60% of the value of my own vehicle and I was advised to s**** the car.<br /><br />2003 BMW 320d in excellent condition. I've had it since just about new.<br /><br />Okay, so quote revised downwards and the panelbeaters agreed to source original 2nd hand parts. I'm happy with this. They also give a warranty on their work.<br /><br />This morning - no......... Brolink is once again putting me through hoops. The vehicle has to get stripped to assess any "hidden damage" EXCUSE ME BROLINK - WHAT PART OF THE PANELBEATERS WARRANTY DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND? They undertook that there would be no extra costs for your account.<br /><br />I am NOT going to write this car off - I know it, I trust it, it goes beautifully. The other party will be paying for the repairs.<br />It seems to me that this company wants to make life as tough as they can for their customers, so they can profit from auctioning off the vehicle.<br /><br />NOT Impressed! I use this car to be able to earn my salary. I can't afford a new car, and I won't drive a tin can. My monthly premiums are good enough but hey - how about you play your part also?<br /><br /></p>
