Yes, well, we'll see. Apparently I'm getting market value for my pay out which is more than (slightly) I had it insured for. Is that standard practice or did I just get a visit from the tooth fairy?Originally Posted by Blakamin
It should be sorted this afternoon, and I should be paid by Monday. I'm test riding a prospective purchase on Sunday.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
Tooth fairy for sure.
Anyone else who got more from their insurance company than they were expecting?

The only thing I can think of (don't have the policy at work) is that I had the bike insured at market value with a nominated agreed minimum value.Originally Posted by bungbung

I got slightly less than I expected, but it was exactly equal to the current insured market value.
I whinged about it, and they said if I got two other written quotes from bike shops that said it was worth more, then they'd split the difference between that and the insured value. So, I went to two other shops, and they both said, "They said it was worth that much?!? Take the money and run!"
... and that's what I think.
Or summat.
Or maybe not...
Dunno really....![]()
I had a bike insured for $6500 on a market value policy.Originally Posted by bungbung
They payed $7500 to me as that was it's market value was at the time of the w/o.
Thanks AMI!I'll take the money.
It was a cunning plan, and I am forever grateful to the assessing company for this one - Sum insured PLUS GST.
Assessing Company lady:"Oops He seems to have insured his motorcycle for market value less GST. Silly man (insert batting eyelids here)."
Insurance Company: "Oh yes, so he has"
There are people out there who help sometimes after all.
All together now: Ahhhhhhhhhhh
