In my case, the repair costs exceed the excess by a large margin (without making up damage, mind you). Eddy.

Therefore, people avoid making claims if they don't have to make them. Some (a lot actually) even prefer not to report accidents and pay for the repairs themselves. @C: I was joking, relax :-) What I know fore sure is that in Canada, each claim will skyrocket your premium.

True.. Insurance companies via their motor surveyors do make a lot of profits. When they survey your car, they tend to underestimate the damages so that they don't have to pay you much. You can have your car cross expertised by another expert but then this one would not try to counteract the other. Vicious circles indeed. U think this is only mauritian culture???

That being said, insurance companies do make a lot of profit. Eddy: Glad to hear that nothing serious happened.
