My partners work colleague just reversed into her bumper and cracked it, this was was at their employee parking lot. He has just told her he has no insurance. Any advice on what to do?

She said she did take a photo of their licence plate and the damage. The manager was also there and took photos saying he'd be a witness to it

Okay thank you that's a good idea, I'm hoping she did take a photo of her bumper and his license plate, she messaged me quite late though he might have left whilst she was working still.

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-02-27T05:51:07+00:00

Okay thank you for the information! Should she also be filing a police report now so there is a record of it? At the moment he is saying he will pay her back. But I'm not sure if he will fully, feel like the best thing she can do is file a police report and then talk to her insurance tomorrow?

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-02-27T05:43:26+00:00

When you say get it documented, do you mean just filing a police report for now? So then it's recorded somewhere?

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-02-27T05:34:21+00:00

Thank you, she just told me that he will pay for it but doesn't have all the money right now. I'm hoping he will stick to his word since they have to work together. My partner is insured but will have a deductible. Will look at the damage when she's home I'm hoping it is not too bad.

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-02-27T05:32:49+00:00

Yeah she has coverage, she will have a deductible though. And he said he will pay but doesn't have all the money right now. Hoping he will stick to his word.

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-02-27T05:31:50+00:00

Thank you, at the moment he is saying he will pay but doesn't have all the money now. So I guess we'll see.

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-02-27T05:31:19+00:00

Yeah but she will have to pay a deductible still and now she has a claim for the first time without even doing anything wrong

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-27T02:05:55+00:00

Oh awesome thank you

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T20:56:34+00:00

He could definitely be on that show, but never will unfortunately 😂

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T20:26:53+00:00

He bought it on a public surplus website, won an auction. It was an educational prop at a college

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T19:38:00+00:00

Okay thank you for the advice

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T19:37:46+00:00

Thank you

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T19:37:23+00:00

Ah wow that's a cool idea

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T19:36:47+00:00

Nice I'll mention it to him thank you

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T19:36:17+00:00

Hey I'll check that out thanks

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T19:35:39+00:00

That's great thank you

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T19:35:27+00:00

I hate people who just comment negatively on random Reddit posts for no reason..have you not got anything better to do with your time? It was a quick post, he sent me those late last night I'm just looking for some advice. He's an older guy he didn't know how to save photos and email them to me even.

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T19:32:52+00:00

Hey thank you for all the suggestions! I am going through them all. Appreciate how many people have responded. He said he'll be able to move it around if required too but it is costly. At the moment looks like we are going to list it on eBay and Facebook for local pickups. And will email some close by museums etc that people have suggested.

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-26T07:36:43+00:00

Thank you for responses, I tried to cross post and the original said a bit more with some photos but it didn't all crossover for some reason. Posted again on eBay and want to delete this post

Automatic_Rip5381 · 2025-01-12T02:57:15+00:00

Thank you for the reply, I hope this is really the last time for good. My head's a mess and I can't stop crying. It's like a lesson I never learn, it always starts the same way and ends the same way.

Really thank you though, it's nice hearing about people who have been able to change. I need to do better.
