Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Insurance - Claim on Fully Comprehensive

    Hi,

    A friend of mine had a crash (her fault) and has damaged her back. She needs to go for an xray and probably a few chiropractor or physio sessions afterwards - she called her insurance company to check if she could claim these on her insurance as it is a result of the crash.

    They told her that she cannot claim for any injuries to herself and she should have health insurance to cover herself.

    Is this right? I have fully comp on my own car and I always taught that if I was unlucky enough to be in a crash (and if it was my own fault) that my medical expenses etc would be covered by the insurance.

    Can somebody please let me know what the story is with this.

    Thanks a mill

    Unfortunately I don't have a copy of your friends policy documentation at hand.
    Maybe she could look in it and let us know whats there!

    That's always been the way, the policyholder is indemnified against medical/property damage claims by third parties.

    This includes passengers in the policyholders vehicle, but not the driver of the policyholder vehicle
