Safer on the roads than at home.

[awa355]

I knew it, according to the NZ Herald this morning, more people are killed in the home than on the roads or at work. Fully justifies me going for rides every day.

Now, I wonder when ACC will levy a house specific charge on us. If what they hit motorcyclist for, a high risk householder should be good for about $1,000 a year, each! Might suggest that to my mate Nick 'the prick' Smith.

Yup..I can confirm those facts lol

Use the bike for daily transport -No accidents or ACC claims made.:yes:
Chase the dog around the house and fall flat on my face and knock my four front teeth out :facepalm: (last week...still hurts!)....ACC claim lodged.

But heres the zinger!....ACC have declined to cover me :blink:...and have not explained why?? (I must not be covered for ACCIDENTS!):gob:

So I pay excesive ACC fees for no cover at all now.....brilliant!

.....and they wonder why I only pay 6 months rego every year now

SCREW ACC!......can I go private?....of course not!, how do they make a profit with options like that!......bastards

GOD MY FACE HURTS!-off to gum some food now :shutup:

Fcuking hell, I wish you all the best with your recovery.

....ACC have declined to cover me...

Standard procedure, these days. A portion of claimants will just go away. The rest may need to hire a lawyer.
ps - if your lawyer can beat their lawyer in an arm wrestle, ACC will (finally) approve your claim.

I think I will focus on gumming food and finding new ways NOT to give ACC any more $$ :yes:

LOL -Did think of doing that....but the poor dog was sulking more than me after the accident.....and I "WAS" the one at fault....had a tux bikkie in me gob and was chasing him round the house (teasing) :facepalm:

SCREW ACC!! .....ohh...and don't try tux bikkies!...there for dogs!:blink:

[ukusa]

it's also more dangerous to swim than ride. 86 drownings last year. ACC levy at the swimming pool & beach next? I doubt it!

ACC are making it harder for dental claims - I work in a dental surgery. You now need to show 5 years of dental records showing that you go regularly for check ups. If you have any decay in your mouth at the time this goes against you.

Basically if you get injured and your teeth are damaged, too bad if you have not been looking after them - as far as ACC is concerned.

We are having a lot of upset people with damaged teeth :angry:

[st00ji]

yea cause a face full of concrete would have caused zero damage to his teeth if he'd been for regular checkups.

what a joke

Yes, it is just another excuse not to pay out. Too bad that you/your employer pay your levies. Just what you need huh? Upset cos your knocked your front teeth out and now you have to find the money somehow to fix them.
