Had to file a car insurance claim last month after someone backed into my parked car (ugh). Anyways, I decided to take tons of pictures right away, noted everything down, and called my insurance ASAP. Honestly expected it to be a nightmare, but surprisingly the whole thing went pretty smoothly—no back-and-forth drama or anything. Wondering if this was just pure luck or if anyone else found certain steps helped make the process less annoying?
"I decided to take tons of pictures right away, noted everything down, and called my insurance ASAP."
Honestly, that's probably why it went so smoothly. I've noticed folks who document things clearly and jump on it quick tend to have fewer headaches. Wish everyone did that...would make my job easier, haha.
Good call on the pics and notes—saved me big-time when someone dinged my Benz last year. Insurance loves clear evidence...less back-and-forth means quicker fixes and fewer gray hairs, lol. Wish more people knew this trick.
