3rd party insurance claim

If you ever get hit by a discovery insure client, never listen to the "oh don't worry my insurance will handle everything" line because you will be left unsure, spend endless time on the phone, you will be the one calling to find out how far along in the process you are and after 2months of driving around with a damaged car. You will get sent to a 2 star panel beater who will quote 10k less than any real approved Autobody and you will be left paying the difference to get a decent repair job done after wasting all your time. Claim instead from your insurance, allow them to fight for your excess make sure you have excess cover and ensure your 400k+ vehicle is treated how it should be. Worst experience ever.
