I think I know the answer already but...is there a time limit?

[Phate]

Hello all,

this'll probably be considered a stupid thread but I'm wondering, is there a time limit as to how long after an accident you have to report it to your insurance before it's no longer "valid" ?

The reason I ask is because as you know I had my accident a few weeks back yet and I haven't heard anything.

I'm just wondering if say in 6 months time would it be possible to get a letter through about a claim Mr Muppet which happened at the beginning of January?


Thanks all

I don't know if there is a time limit, but I'd imagine they can take as long as they want? He may have told the insurance, but they're sorting a case for him??

Normally when telling an insurance company they make contact and send a letter to inform you they have been told of the accident don't they? This certainly was the case with my sisters accident.

I don't know if it's any different because it was a company car I hit...
