    How did the accident occur?
  • Other party went into back of me at roundabout. They provided a fake witness who was not at the scene of the accident to provide a statement. I'm not going into exact details here. The other party is committing fraud! But I can't prove it as it's my word against theirs especially with this fake witness! It's disgusting. I feel like I'm hitting my head against a wall!

    Maybe this is your next step?


    • It's not our role to investigate the accident and decide who's responsible. But we'll make sure that the insurer's decision was reasonable - given all the evidence they had. This may include accounts from the drivers involved, witness statements, engineers' reports and CCTV footage.
    • If we decide it wasn't reasonable for an insurer to accept liability, we'll tell them to change the way the claim's been recorded. The customer's current insurer can then recalculate their premium.
