I don't know what the 3rd party are going to claim, and this point I no longer care...

Yes I have protected NCD, but the insurance says that my premium will go up, though not as much as it would have done if I did not have protected NCD... strange

At any rate the bottom line is that if I choose to claim for my bumper, the only cost to me at this point is the £250 excess. So do I pay £250 and fix the damn thing, or do I keep my money and let my wide drive around with a cracked bumper?

For £250, you can have the f**ker removed, welded, painted, put back on, and still have change to cover you for a night out down the local.

Whether the 3rd party calim £10 or £10 000 you will still have a claim against you & your ins will be affected next year. Get your bumber repaired and pay your £250 excess ........

Haven't you got protected NCD, in other words some companys don't increase you premium on renewal, or do they? And sometimes you're allowed more than one claim in so many years and all that :y

Your 'risk' goes up after accident, so although you still have, for eg 60% NCD, the orignal (pre NCD) fee will be much higher.

Thats why insurance companies ask how much NCD you have, and how many accidents you have had ;)
