Repair Without Insurance Claim

If you’ve been involved in a road accident, you have the right to choose where your vehicle gets repaired. If the accident was your fault, your insurance provider typically handles the claim.

 

However, if the accident was not your fault, you are not required to claim through your own insurer. Instead, you can choose an independent claims service that ensures your rights are protected. Contact On Road Assist today to find out how we can help you get your vehicle repaired without affecting your insurance.

 

With our service, we assist thousands of motorists in making independent accident claims. Our expert team ensures that all costs are recovered directly from the at fault driver’s insurer, so you don’t have to worry about unnecessary expenses.

No Excess Fee to Pay

Even if an accident is not your fault, most insurance companies will still require you to pay an excess before repairs begin on your vehicle. While this amount may be reimbursed later, it can be an unexpected financial burden.

 

With On Road Assist, you don’t have to pay any excess at all. Since we handle claims independently of your insurer, you can get your car repaired without paying a penny upfront. Enjoy hassle free repairs without the stress of extra charges!

Get a Like for Like Replacement

Not all insurance policies provide a hire vehicle if yours is damaged or unroadworthy. In many cases, a replacement car is considered an optional extra, or you may only get a basic courtesy vehicle that doesn’t meet your needs.

 

At On Road Assist, we ensure that you receive a comparable replacement vehicle while yours is being repaired. Whether you drive a compact car, an SUV, or a luxury vehicle, we will arrange for a similar make and model so you can continue your daily routine without inconvenience.

Trusted & Approved Repairs

After an accident, the last thing you should worry about is the quality of your vehicle’s repairs. At On Road Assist, we have a trusted network of approved accident repair centres across the UK.
