How insurers quietly shrink your payout
You deserve fair compensation. Here's what's working against you.
Low first offers
The opening offer is rarely the real value of your car — it's a starting point designed in the insurer's favour.
Complex process
Dispute processes are deliberately confusing to discourage challenges.
Expertise is scarce
Fighting claims is not an everyday thing, expertise is difficult to find and expensive — until now.
