I had issues with JC as well. I had someone back into me in a carpark. They accepted the claim with no issues, however the repairs is where i had the issue.
They went with the cheapest repairer, and not suprisingly i had issues from there on in... I booked the car in and requested a loan car, at which i was told i would have to wait a couple of weeks until it would become available. After 6 months of calling 3-4 times a week they finally managed to book it in. I should mention during this time i made numerous complaints to JC, however because the repairer could book me in without a loan car within a week or two they claimed there was nothing they could do. Once i got the car back, i wasn't impressed to find they had only resprayed one half of the bumper, even though i had agreed with the assessor they would spray the whole thing. I called the repairer who basically told me i had to deal with JC. Spoke with JC who said they don't keep records of the quotes and i would have to speak with the assessor as to what the agreement was. But since it had been over 6 months there was no chance he would have remembered. In the end i gave up. Probably should have kept hassling them, but in the end they had done a good job at blending the paint. Annoyingly however, about 4 months afterwards the clear coat started pealing off and it had to go back, after another 3 month wait for a loan car. The final straw was when i put an exhaust on my car. When i rang JC to add it onto my policy they told me it would be an extra $60 per year, and they would be sending me out a bill for it. Once i received my renewal notice i rang around for a few quotes. Most people wouldn't insure a WRX with the driver under 25. Ended up with RAC, their policy was an extra $100 per year, however i also opted for loan car and the extras. I've since made a couple of claims through RAC and apart from problems with my excess (which they refused to return until they could identify the other driver) they have been great. I recieved my renewal notice in the post a couple of weeks back and the policy had dropped by like 45% per year. Extremely pleased with them so far... Other thing i looked at JC Excess = $1400 RAC = $650

Adr3naL1N - Can see where your coming from with RAC, have you called them at a different time to see if a different person will give you another quote? RAC ended up suggesting I should go under my parents names (They both have 10% each and I am 80% driver) I only pay $1500 a year. But yeah I would give them another call and see if they can do any better.
Elemist - You should have kept hassling. I called them every day, and if I couldn't my Mum did. I doubt JC, the assessor on my case and his boss will ever forget me or my car!

Hey Guys,
I work for HBF insurance, we do insure modified cars but not all mods are acceptable. If you have aftermarket ECU's, boost controllers or any tuning done then unfortuantely we cant insure u, otherwise any other mods will be fine depends on each persons car. Just car = really ridiculous exceses, mate just crashed his ute and has $3500 excess pfft...

So say it was a verso tune, how exactly would the insurance company know that its been tuned? Also do you require permits for the mods? Thanks |
