Hi,
Does anyone know whether you still have to pay excess if you put the claim in as a vandalism damage to your car. I couldn't find anything in their T&C
Any info would be great

    any claim you make on your own insurance you will pay the excess wether it be accident or vandalism

    Sadly it is a 'no claim' not a 'no blame' discount, and the same applies to excess. Some insurance policies have a lower excess for claims that are clearly not your fault - give them a ring.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.
