Insurance warning AMI You have been warned!

[Taz]

I had a nice man turn in front of my ute and write iy off for me. AMI had the claim settled in three days. Very efficient and polite.

Would monday really have been too long to wait for a figure?? Are you really sure you are not just being a little impatient?? Some things take time.

Duck's Butt? A new one on me, please elaborate

Its small and it doesn't give a shit

[CookMySock]

They took the eejit to court, and gave me my $250 excess back.

Did the policy have a $250 excess anyway? If so, then thats unusual for them to just give you free money. If the policy was no-excess then they should be charging you that to begin with.

Actually, over the last weekend, we were camping at Ruakaka, there are a lot of ducks there. Ducks do not shit ok. They SHART! Smelly, revolting sharts, they are no house/caravan/awning trained either

we had some ducks take up residence in the back yard after Mrs Headbanger fed them, each day they were hanging closer and closer to the back door....Untill after about a week I found the bastards in teh house eating the cat food, So I (fearlessly) gave them the fright of their lives, at which time they scattered teh cat food all over the room as they took flight, smashing crap off the shelves and craping all over the walls,the washing, and the floor.

Was a glorious mess.

Ducklings are cute They grow up and are not so cutey, cutey

Ask Maha about the one that was inside the friggen caravan, and wht it did when he happened to find it...hint...

SHART on Sweatshirt is a fairly big hint.

Mind you they look cute in a mini roasting dish too

You know why duck tape was invented now eh......

[yod]

I'm noticing a trend here, all of the people not having issues have'nt got a written of vehicle, just one which needs fixing......

I'm going to presume, that the fact it's getting written off is the secrect ingredient needed for them to become kentucky fried cunts.

nope

wrote off my RF900 last year

got my gear paid out in about 2 days and the bike paid out in about 4 i think, they even shelled out cash for tri-boy's gas money as he kindly hauled it down from hamilton for me

no problems whatsoever

[Gubb]

Duct Tape.

DUCT TAPE.

[Usarka]

Duct Tape.

DUCT TAPE.

Common misconception. It was changed to duct tape for this very reason - animal rights activists were outraged and staged many violent protests. Duct tape was lucky, Hamster Tape ^TM was withdrawn completely (but still available through underground supply channels).

All insurers can and will be c*nts if you start off telling them how to do their job. Same goes with Police, Parking Wardens, even Firemen.

Swear at me while I am assessing your claim and I can assure you that I won't have any real good reason to prioritise your matters. Your vocab may impress some down the local pub but it wouldn't thrill a claims officer sitting in her office.

As far as the excess goes .. you will get a renewal notice at least annually. It's YOUR responsibility to insure that they have things right and if your circumstances change you HAVE to tell them. Maybe look at what your wife is insuring you for? Bank officers are not insurance specialists I'm sure she's a top girl but it's your bike.

If I was in your position I would realise that the AMI chick's hands were tied till she got the valuation. I'd follow up the valuer myself and give AMI the info they need to process things.

Finally, as mentioned elsewhere, you'd probably get a better deal and maybe even understanding/empathy from an insurer that does bikes more than just a sideline product line from a supermarket insurer like AMI.

I'm with State, I killed one bike 31/12/06, got knocked off the new one Nov 07 and then backed the car into an "appear from no where and stop in my blind spot" old guy, 3 claims in 2.5 years and i still have the same excess and max no claims bonus, they've been awesome

[Fatjim]

I've been with AMI since before they were AMI and I must say I've been considering changing. We got robbed last year, and dealing with AMi was worse than the robbery. They felt it was their right to probe into every personal financial detail of my life. They wanted to see bank statements etc before they approved the payment.

And they used to be top knotch. I wouldn't reccomend them any more.
