Third party claim

I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction with the handling of our claim concerning the incident involving our vehicle and a Yaris insured with Outsurance.

The incident occurred in July, during which a Yaris, reversing out of a parking space, collided with our stationary vehicle. Despite clear CCTV footage showing the Yaris reversing across multiple parking spaces and eventually striking our vehicle, we have been informed that we are liable for our own damages. This decision was based on an altered CCTV recording and claims that our driver did not brake quickly enough, despite our vehicle being stationary.

Our primary concerns are as follows:

Lack of Communication: Despite multiple attempts to contact your office and request updates, we have experienced significant delays and a lack of meaningful responses. Your office has communicated with the Yaris driver but has not kept us adequately informed. Inadequate Investigation: The decision appears to be based on an altered CCTV recording, which does not accurately reflect the sequence of events. We believe this decision does not take into account the full context of the incident. Unprofessional Conduct: When we were contacted recently, our concerns were dismissed without proper consideration or investigation into the facts presented. The lack of empathy and understanding towards our situation has been disappointing. Given these issues, I request a thorough review of our claim and the evidence provided. We expect a reassessment of the situation based on the unaltered CCTV footage and a prompt resolution to this matter.

Please acknowledge receipt of this complaint and provide a timeline for when we can expect a resolution. We hope for a swift and fair resolution and look forward to your prompt response.

Still not resolved. People think carefully before you decide if you want people to go through the same situation as I am.

Hello Marco

Following our private reply to you, we received feedback from our liability claims manager, confirming he was in contact with you.

Our decision remains unchanged. This was after the footage of how accident occurred, was viewed. Neither of the 2 drivers kept a lookout. Had either of the drivers been alert, the accident would not have happened.

We are sorry you feel as if we treated you unfairly. This is however not the case.

Regards
The OUTsurance Team

Your client drove over a solid parking line and as per the footage the speed of the footage was advanced. And anyone can see that my ranger stopped and then the Yaris hits him.

As per the video it confirms the horn was used as it grabbed the attention of the by standers.
