Double car insurance claim
Options
Hi, I’m new to this forum so apologies if I’m wrong section. My son had a car accident several months ago (his fault and no other car involved) which hasn’t been settled yet due to back log with garage. In the meantime he has had a 2nd ‘mishap’ (his own fault again and no other vehicle involved) and damaged the whole side of his car. My question is will the insurance company still go ahead and pay for the repairs on the first claim or will they now factor in the 2nd claim before deciding on what action to take?
Any advice would be much appreciated

The motoring board would perhaps be a more appropriate place to ask this-

They may well write off the car and settle the policy. The insurer might be keen to offload this client. GreyMan will be a good source of inside help for this one ...
