RAA Car Insurance

I have comprehensive car insurance ! Recently had accident! my car will be non - repairable. My car is used when we bought but it’s a 2017 Honda and was only done 10,000 and around 40,000 on the clock right before the crash !, my question is, I read it in the PDS that car can be replaced with same model, year and condition ! We have loan with the car, and we only need a replacement car as we need a car anyways as we have 4 children ! Dose it possible to get replacement car instead the insurer pay out our loan and stuff ? This is my first claim ever! Hopefully will be hassle free as I already experienced a very unpleasant costumer services and stressing ! Praying for a good result ! Thank you !

Hi Marelle, it took about eight weeks, but I delayed the process by not having my phone on hand (leaving it in the car and not checking the missed calls) when the RAA had tried to ring.

Thanks Douglas. I have never encountered such a lack of customer service. It is causing me a huge amount of stress and financial pressure. I've been a RAA member for 17 years, and it means nothing. Never again.

I have comprehensive ins. on my vehicle, recently I was sideswiped by a truck,after exchanging info we both drove off.I have a police report and a claim number . I received a verbal that my car is a right off..I have had this vehicle since new and it is excellent condition. If it is written off what happens next? I really do like this vehicle and have spent a lot of money keeping it in excellent condition.

I'm afraid as third party only, you would need to bear all the cost before the one you hit puts any further claims. I hope to God the other party does not put a whiplash claim otherwise you'll be in trouble. Never go for 3rd party only. That would be my advice.

Yes you can as long as you reported it to your insurance company. As for wiplash, that has to do with third party bodily insurance taken out with your registration,
