Sorry to hear about your miss-fortune, nothing worse than some thiefing scum bag stealing/touching your things.

Just a quicky thought your Glass Excess under the policy should not be £500.00.

The Excess should be £50-£60 or the most I have seen is £100.

If you are still struggaling to find Glass Replacement send me a PM as I know a few local firms.

It's a Taxi Mr.D. If Ginger was to claim on his Insurance he would have to pay £500 excess ... and yes that is his excess with being a taxi. There would have been no point in claiming on Insurance because the window only cost £60 and that was fitting as well.


All done now anyway. Till next time :mad::mad:

Re: Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!
 

Sorry slinks & Ginger about that. Dont they realise that a taxi is a business and that they are stopping people from paying their way. It might be their grandma or grandad that was ringing Ginger asking them to take them shopping - Ginger cant take them - he's having the car fixed after them numpties smashed it! Couldnt they see that there was nothing in there for them?

Have you checked out Tink's alibi yet?:D

Seriously, sorry to hear that, and if they do catch the scrotes, I hope they throw the book at them.

Even it being a Taxi the Excess should not be £500.00 for Glass if it is then it kinda defets the object.

The Excess will more than likely be £50.00, £60.00.

Usually Glass Claim Do Not reduce your No Claim Bonus 99% of the time.

I would find out if I was you.

As it may help if he was far away, and had his windscreen break/crack and needed to call Auto Glass or simaler to come and fix on site.

Re: Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!
 

First off, Mr D.'s not playing as much as drumming up potential business? (at least that's the story he could tell "the man!")

I too am sorry for this violation against you; slinky and Ginger.

Questions: Are most taxi drivers private businesses or do they work for a centralized office?

Also, would the rate of insurance go down if you were to have security systems put on the vehicles? Or is this just not something you guys have to do over there?

With that many occurences, somebody's gotta known something. Hire some chavs to find out and then have them "visit" the perpetraitors!

Re: Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!
 

Not a bad idea Brian, although he's got to catch me first.:D

We have two types.
Private Hire - Ring Base and Taxi Comes to your location
Public Hire - On The street/Rank taxi's no pre book required.

Most will be Self Employed.
Private Hire will usually pay a fee to the rank for jobs.
Where A Public Hire wont have the Fee just pick up from The rank or Street.

As for vehicle security, not worth getting for Insurance Discount, most is usually 5% for a Thatchem Cat 1 Alarm, immobaliser these cost £300 +. Same goes for tracker. A Alarm is best for Personal Protection and does help prevent some thefts.

Only High performance/Value or some imported vehicles usuall require a Alarm Or Immobaliser

Re: Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!
 

I'm sorry, I woke about 4am and realised I'd left a can of pepsi in Gingers car when we were last out. I didn't think you'd want waking so I coshed the window to get it





............ Only joking, just trying to cheer you up ;)

Swines, I hope Ginger finds out who it was, they'll wish they hadn't touched the car then! :mad:

Re: Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!
 

Lol I'll give Chav a ring later lol.......

probably never hear anything else about it now!! just one of those things. :mad:
