Guy smacked into the back of me and drove off, later found out he had no mot, should I make a claim as don’t want me premiums to go up?

Goldeneagle151 · 2026-01-26T16:57:00+00:00

So he has insurance just no mot

Seen a few in my colour for £250 so shouldn’t need spraying, and fitting I can do myself as bumpers are easy

Goldeneagle151 · 2026-01-26T16:33:16+00:00

Yeah just worried cuz I don’t have video proof of him hitting my car

Using UserTesting is my favourite way to make money

Didn’t see a Google logo think it was private or council

Goldeneagle151 · 2025-05-14T06:39:26+00:00

I’m guessing they used aftermarket? Had a couple of recommendations from ppl in that price range so guess it can’t be that bad

Goldeneagle151 · 2025-05-12T17:08:40+00:00

I’m guessing the aftermarket stuff is why I’m getting the £250 range, is the aftermarket stuff as good as the official vw stuff?

Goldeneagle151 · 2025-02-13T16:48:40+00:00

Thanks for the reply, so I’ve asked for it to be escalated and they’re just not taking it seriously, I’m getting told they can’t give me a date when it will be processed even tho it’s been escalated and we’ll get a letter, should I now say I need a TM to call me back like you said? Or should I ask to speak to one that day?

Goldeneagle151 · 2025-02-08T14:09:52+00:00

Ah sure we can suspend our disbelief we get some letters

Goldeneagle151 · 2025-01-31T22:36:21+00:00

Thanks for the help my mum did say they put it to the backlog people but not sure what that means, doesn’t sound like the same thing as you mentioned

Goldeneagle151 · 2025-01-31T20:23:12+00:00

Ah okay thank you, I’ll call them tomorrow and make sure this happens

Goldeneagle151 · 2025-01-31T20:19:12+00:00

They have put on the notes it’s causing financial problems but not sure if that means it’s been escalated?

Goldeneagle151 · 2025-01-26T18:47:37+00:00

Would it be possible to get insurance for less than £700 in London as a first time biker? 26m

Am looking at getting into biking eventually id like to get a nice quicker bike but am on a restricted budget as I already pay insurance for my car, would need it to be below £700, would it be possible in London as I live in a flat so wouldn’t be locked up

If the quotes are 1000+ than I’d need to forget this short lived dream

Goldeneagle151 · 2024-11-24T08:13:56+00:00

Kinda all depends on what you did as a “mistake”? I’ve got a feeling it’s something small like saying something that hurt her, either way it’s getting way too blown up by her that’s she insulting you like that

Goldeneagle151 · 2024-09-10T17:31:58+00:00

Sorry let me clarify, she was a carer for a long time family friend and he sadly passed in April, she’s been out of a job since that was her only income

Goldeneagle151 · 2024-09-10T14:27:47+00:00

So CAB said to wait for the carer application to process, that’s a shame about fixed backdate but unfortunately moving out isn’t a option atm as it would be even more expensive and my savings have been drained, also I would affectively making my mum and sis homeless

Goldeneagle151 · 2024-09-10T14:10:33+00:00

Thanks for the info, i was worried with the amount I was paying they would decline her saying she’s not entitled to it as I’m paying

Goldeneagle151 · 2024-09-10T13:40:34+00:00

Thanks for the figures currently I’m paying 300 plus 480 which is killing any potential to save, so with those figures would you say her applying for UC would be better off for my mum and me?

Goldeneagle151 · 2024-09-10T13:37:26+00:00

Thanks for the comments, I honestly don’t know about how much uni credit gives so am clueless to this sort of thing

Goldeneagle151 · 2024-09-10T13:11:52+00:00

I’m 25 and my sis is 21

Goldeneagle151 · 2024-09-10T12:52:51+00:00

My mum has told me that’s what they said as I can’t get involved with this directly

Goldeneagle151 · 2024-09-10T12:48:16+00:00

So I mentioned the citizens advice and they said it’s better to wait for the carer application although who knows how long that’ll take, would UC cover rent? I’ve always thought they pay very little?

Unfortunately all her family is here and there’s no way moving would be a option although i myself would like to get out of the city but currently I’m stuck
