3rd party claim rejected

<p>on the 14th of July I collided with a guy who is insured by OS, the guy jumped the stop sign and I hit him on the side "left front door", he had his GF in the car and both acknowleges that they were wrong but OS rejected my claim, I had the right of a way and I have to pay for someones mistakes. the guy gave me his claim number to chaim " ********** 69". why will he give me claim number if I was the one at fault? </p> <p> </p> <p>I spoke to Chantel Kok from OS who is not friendly and doesnt give you a chance to speak. all she said was you can take us to court no problem, if there is someone I will be taking to court will be OS client not OS. when I spoke to the guy he said I must deal with OS but it seems as if thats not working and I have to deal with him directly.</p> <p>Both him and his GF knows that they were wrong.</p> <p> </p> <p>I think because I am a third party they care less but thats not how a good big insurers like outsurance should behave they way they are behaving now.</p> <p> </p> <p>Our version is as follows:</p> <p>“Our client stopped at the stop street and proceeded when it was safe to do so, he</p> <p>proceeded over the road when you come out of a business park entering the main road</p> <p>and collided into our client’s vehicle left door”</p> <p> </p> <p>the statement above is from OS</p> <p> </p> <p>"Our client stopped" OS writes as if they were there, a well educated person cant say that. This guys said they were in a hurry to attend something, I have witnessess who are willing to testify that. OS should treat matters like a well known insurance company not like a company which started yesterday.</p> <p> </p> <p>if OS doesnt resolve this, I will deal with their client directly, I will not take OS to court as Chantel Kok said but I will directly deal with the guy.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

We fully understanmd your disappointment and apprecaite your feedback which allowed us theopportunity to discuss the detail with you.

Our legal liabilty claims manager contacted you. He explained we are not saying you were at fault, but our client was not at fault either. Each party has to bear their own costs, based on how the accident ocurred.

Regards

Dinky
