Re: Third Party Insurance. What Does It Cover? by sniperwolf(m): 7:56am On Feb 15, 2017 |
It covers for all damage done to a 3rd party. I was involved in an accident on the 1st of August, 2016 at Sagbama Junction Bayelsa. My car developed a mechanical problem and I lost control of it and it ran into a mechanical workshop destroying 3 vehicles and the mechanic's tools. The vehicle owners were at my neck while I was in the hospital, when I recovered I reluctantly went through my car documents and decided to call the number found on the Insurance Certificate (KBL Insurance, subsidiary of Keystone Bank). I was surprised with the feedback, I was asked by the insurance representative to breakdown the cost of repair for each vehicle. I did so it was amounting to about N520,000. Another representative was sent from perhaps their head office to assess the claim and they offered about N400,000. I was really surprised because I wasn't expecting anything from it. My car was badly damaged and I sold it off there at the accident scene. They were worried because it wasn't a comprehensive cover because they would have replaced my car. Guys insurance is working if it's genuine. 3 Likes |

Mine at mansard covers up to 1 million naira, and in the event of death, 6 million i guess, go to your insurance company website, read their conditions and then inform them of the situation, something would be done i assure you. |

Depending on the insurance company, Third party insurance covers repairs up to N1m. The owner of the policy however bears his own cost. It's amazing alot of people do not know this... |

joinnow: Insurance companies feed fat from Nigerians like you that are not informed, and don't go for claims in eventualities. Your 5k yearly covers your 3rd party up to 500—1m depending on the insurance company you took, and very easy process against your thought. Pictures of the accident site and a police report, see contact information on your insurance certificate. Just go to sleep and be thinking of how to repair your own car, while your insurance takes care of the car you damaged. It's not up to 40days to process, from the one I experienced if you can prove the scenario and have witness from scene. Note: If your insurance certificate is not genuine, you would have been arrested long ago on the road by VIO. One they've checked you before and let you go, your cert is genuine. |

in a general review, I think third party insurance covers the loss of a third party in a road accident. for example if Mr A insured in third party insurance and he eventually jam Mr B. the insurance company will take the cost of the damage car of the Mr B in the place of Mr A who insured his monthly dues (premium) in the insurance the third party in this illustrations is Mr B that his car was smashed by the insured(Mr A) |

koksybrown: Ur third party insurance only covers any damage done to the other person's car and not urz In this case that you hit another person's car, you take some pictures and go to the nearest police station to get a police report and then contact ur insurance company and notify them that you just hit someone's car and the cost of repairing the other person's car will be borne by the insurance company. Note: If ur insurance is genuine not the fake that most people do. Someone that has a 2017 car is most likely to have a comprehensive insurance |
Re: Third Party Insurance. What Does It Cover? by delezac(m): 9:06am On Feb 15, 2017 |
It covers the 3rd party injury, damage and up to the sum of N1,000,000. If the repairs is more than N1m, you bear the rest. Call your insurance broker. |
Re: Third Party Insurance. What Does It Cover? by ALAYORMII: 9:11am On Feb 15, 2017 |
sniperwolf: That's why it's always advisable to have comprehensive insurance but most people go for only third party insurance because it's mandated by law |

dhardline: Normally a 2017 Ford should have a comprehensive insurance. How can someone not have a insurance on that expensive car in lagos. Anyway incase he as insurance just give him ur 3rd party insurance certificate and sign an undertaking that you are the one responsible for the accident. His insurance company will pay for his repair and collect it back from your insurance company. |

Liability insurance purchased by an insured (the first party) from an insurer (the second party) for protection against the claims of another (the third) party. The first party is responsible for its own damages or losses whether caused by itself or the third party. it (third party insurance) covers only the damage been cause by your vehicle to another person's property like car, bus, gate, fence,okada keke marwa etc while its (the car) is been driven by the insurer.

koksybrown:Thank you for asking, that's a good question. The third party certificate that you have, only covers the other party's vehicle and not yours,even if you were hit or you hit someone. For more enquiries,kindly check my signature or call me up |

Lies, people benefit from genuine 3rd Party Cover insurance. Ignorance is too bad for us. The original is N5k maximum, yet people still go do a fake for N3k HAH: |
Re: Third Party Insurance. What Does It Cover? by leighcon(m): 1:34pm On Feb 15, 2017 |
You do not admit anything, you let your insurance company take care of agreements. Your cover may be void if you sign such agreements. LordVoldemort: |
Re: Third Party Insurance. What Does It Cover? by leighcon(m): 1:37pm On Feb 15, 2017 |
Simply call your insurance company to state this and let us hear what they have to say. By the way, why would a 2017 vehicle not have a comprehensive cover in place? The ideal thing is your insurers would both meet to negotiate the handling of the loss. The vehicle could have been wrongly parked you know. sniperwolf: 1 Like |
Re: Third Party Insurance. What Does It Cover? by leighcon(m): 1:44pm On Feb 15, 2017 |
Your likes were given to you by people as ignorant as yourself. Insurance is a pool system, it is not your own premium (N5k) that they will spend to fix the car, the repair cost is taken from the pool where there have been other contributors. What it covers is subject to the terms and conditions stated in your policy. joinnow: |
