Here is how Insurance claim worked out.

 

1/ Wait 4 months.

 

2/ NTUC: offer me 3K as "market value at time of loss".

 

3/ NTUC: New insurance quotations for other bike now show claims history 3001-5000, which is less than the offer, and premium up 50%!

 

3/ ME: Provide NTUC evidence that the market value is NOT 3K but 6K.

 

4/ NYUC: Claim this is the amount the "independant valuer" , "based on

market info" has provided them.

 

5/ ME: Accept 3K on condition that NTUC can provide a single piece of data from the valuers database that support the 3K "market value"

 

6/ NTUC: Offer 4K, claiming the valuer changed their "market value" after lookin at my research (no market data offered to support the 3K)

 

7/ ME: if evidence shows that market value is 6K why should I accept 4K, i'll be reasonable and accept 5K please.

 

8/ NTUC: Will ask approval from "higher ups"

 

.....

 

12,672,456/ NTUC: the higher ups approved 4.5K.

 

12,673,457/ ME: Hooray! thanks for not very much.

 

Insurance lesson 1:

 

Independent valuers are

 

1: not independent.

or

2: not really valuing.

or

3: Having their reports sent to the recycle bin.

 

 

Insurance lesson 2:

 

Your policy is NOT as stated "market value" but " negotiated pay out at time of loss"

 

Insurance lesson 3:

 

Claims will increase your premium 50% or more regardless if your fault.

 

Ect...

 

Now, if the payout is nego, why is the premium not I wonder?
