I imagine that seeing / posting those pics was quite confronting for you. The event must have been dreadful.

Funny thing is I don't find it confronting , more interesting, and a lot of pent up anger against the truck driver for being such an idiot . ( and a lot of the farkwit word)

Assume they all get added onto the insurance claim?
Post by: Rowlie on July 02, 2025, 08:45:09 AM
Under the circumstances (as I understand them) the TP insurer should be prepared to respond.
Good luck.

When my Ute was stolen, I could claim up to $1000 for missing items that were stolen.
Foo
Yeah, when I had a chat to the insurance company I was told I could claim up to $1k BUT I can do it up to 7 times , for a total of $7k , each claim has an excess of $100.00 :'( Yesterday I submitted 2 claims , more to go , so we'll see how I go :D
