Insurance Questions and Answers

Car Crash Help?

I was within a taxi this morning and he crashed into another vehicle I was thrown from the wager on seat. The minicab driver was immensely rude with me and the female from the other car involved. Does anyone know if I can put a claim contained by against him or will it be classed as my fault for not wearing a form belt?


Answers: If the taxi have rear form belts, and he did not advise you to fit your form belt yes, and you did not except this he should have refuse to take you unless your fitted the form belt, hope this helps
your condemn
you may even get a fine !
I would hold quiet in the order of it, sorry
Your fault you should wage for damages.
You can try to claim from his insurer but if he knows and informs them you did not enjoy a seat belt on afterwards its highly unlikely they will remuneration out

Taxi passengers do own to wear a seat belt contained by a taxi.
If the taxicab driver be at fault contained by this accident, you hold every right to file a claim for any injuries that you suffered as a result of the happenstance. Your claim would be for medical expenses, if you miss work due to the injury--loss of income and or pain and suffering. The reality that you did not have a form belt does not invalidate your claim.

I would suggest that you secure the services of a righteous attorney. Try to get someone through a referral from a friend--don't basically get one that advertise.

Good Luck and I hope you recover swiftly.
Any claim would hold to be under the personal injury rules - and frankly if you own only suffered a bit of knock about [rather than physical injury or loss of something such as earnings] then you hold no claim.

Any claim that you might make, would probably be discounted by the insurer if [for example] form belts were provided but not worn.

Your probability of success come across to be quite slim, but if the black cab was chunk of a larger company then try making a written complaint to the registered trading address - if you get the licence number off the pay for of the taxi after you can trace them through the local authority.
If you have auto insurance I would consider placing a claim underneath your own policy first in writ to expedite payment for your medical bills. If not next you can file a claim. Not have a seat belt on will not invalidate your claim (you didn't effect the accident), however the amount recoverable will be reduced because your were not wearing a form belt. You didn't cause the injuries to yourself, however you did build them worse by not having a form belt on.

Will this be covered surrounded by my home contents insurance?

I have just this minute taken up contents insurance through Direct line.

A few days ago, I be taking my washing from the gadget, and realised I had not here my MP3 Player in my pocket.

I hold left the player contained by a box, with a purse of silica gel, in a heat environment but it seems unconscious. The player is a Creative Vision:M 30gb and to replace it would cost around lb140.

Does anyone know if this would be covered on my contents insurance, or would it be a waste of time bothering direct queue. I have read the documents that come with the policy but I couldnt find a adequate answer.

Thanks.


Answers: Its worth a try.
All policies are different and the only bearing you will find out is by reading it thoroughly. I know you said you have read it but did you read the entire chapter relevant to you?...its not just the 'certificate' you should own

If you pay for inadvertent damage your possibly covered but the excess is probable to be higher than the player is worth
In the US - contents coverage is collectively a "named peril" policy.

That system - that in establish for it to be covered - the cause of the impair has to specifically name in the policy. Generally, peril include things like - fire, lighting, windstorm, hailstones.

It does not sound close to this loss would fall underneath any of the named peril. And since it's super bowl time - if you are moving your flat screen tv for your super bowl body and drop it - that damage is not covered any.
If you have fluky damage cover on your policy afterwards it should be covered. (At least the clothed insurance companies I deal near would cover it - subject to excess)

If you have a standard 'different for old' policy then it won't.

(And as you would expect I bet Direct Line have a lb100 excess anyway)
i agree it might be covered if you hold accidental hurt cover but you might find the excess is between lb50 and lb100 so you wouldn't get rear enough to buy a untried one.

If it is less than a year old-fashioned then it might still be beneath guarantee - so you could dry it out totally until there is no trace of moisture after take it rear to the shop and say it stopped working...dont describe them about the wash machine bit!

You bring back ripped off by most important companies, so you might as well rip em rear legs..
It depends on what type of coverage you have: All Risk or Named Perils. If it's the former, I don`t know. If it's the latter, no.
Also I would be surprised if your claim is above your deductible. If it is it wouldn't be by much, so you would receive back unbelievably little. Add that to the fact that you would be losing out on any claims free discount (or even the possibility of human being dropped by your insurer altogether on renewal) means it's unlikely you would come out ahead.

A life insurance benfit was paid to me, Do I have to pay income tax on the amount paid to me.?




Answers: No, not for the death benefit of the policy. As long as your the beneficiary. IF there were another beneficiary, that paid out to you or others, it would be considered a gift, and is taxable.

Also, any interest received after depositing the benefit is taxable.
Generally life insurance payouts are NOT considered taxable income.
