Some arsehole totally shattered the ignition barrel of my shitty car but coudln't start it (so he/she is even a loser at being a loser)

No worries, I have theft insurance. Only to discover that as it happened on my home driveway which is within 100 mtrs of my house my excess is $550. The car is only worth $1200.

Christmas is cancelled, sorry freinds and loved ones but I can't afford it now. Harumph!

Geez ........... that sucks major monkey balls.

Get this........ my freaking vehicle is dead in the water. It keeps losing engine oil like there is no tomorrow. Yesterday I had to pull over and put in engine oil and this morning the dip stick showed empty of oil. Plus the engine oil light stays on and the engine makes this gawd awful sound. So it is time to look for a replacement vehicle now.

Why oh why when winter hits, that's when shit happens

Thanks dude. Yep, sod's law bad timing. Anyway, shouldn't feel too sorry for myself. It's not really a major mishap or heartbreack just a minor inconvenience.

I know right, it's a dumb arbitrary rule. It's actually if it's within 100mtrs of my house then I get shafted. I told them I was taking my home and contents and two car cover elsewhere. They don't give a shit.

u should have lied.. i would have

my son had his car stolen recently, it was an old banger but it got him to work. it wasn't even worth a claim by the time excess was considered. which was really annoying

I know, I actually didn't know until I'd filed the police report and filled out the claim. But I can't lie with shit like that. I know people who claim for lost cameras or iphones that didn't exist on holidays and that but I just don't feel right doung that.

actually, people making fraudulent claims need to be caught out, that's why we are paying so much insurance already.. but your car situation? what kind of twatty in hell policy is that! they deserve to get lied to. i'd have no qualms about pulling a fast one there.

Sorry to hear that.

I've heard of people who's cars are so old that when they get damaged, they just have them taken out to the desert and burned so that the insurance pays the full amount.

"Allegedly."

thread title of the year!

Oops. Sorry. Though in New Zealand dude can be used as a dual gender slang term.

Carry on then. Call me "dude"

In New Zealand you can do anything you want!

Might I suggest, Lusty, that in future you take out your insurance a few doors over. So your driveway mishaps are always 100m away from home

Samething happened to me...my car was broken into last week and I've had to pay out of the rear to get my window replaced and my passenger seat as well. The fools didn't realize (by looking at my car) that I don't have anything of value in my car. They got nothing but left me with damages. My insurance company is giving me a hard time too. Ugh.

They add insult to injury as they've been mugging us for ages and we've set up an auto payment so they can do it.

I know! We give them permission to steal from us.
