Here's How to Claim Car Insurance Easily

Having motor vehicle protection, such as car insurance, will be very useful to protect your finances. Moreover, when there is an accident or loss due to theft, motor vehicle insurance will make you feel comfortable and calm when driving on the road. Risks that may occur to the vehicle at any time will be borne by the insurance company.

Vehicle insurance, or car insurance, is divided into two types, namely Comprehensive insurance and Total Loss Only ("TLO") insurance. In general, TLO is an insurance program that only protects cars from two types of risks: the risk of losing the vehicle due to theft and damage whose repair costs are above 75% of the sum insured. Comprehensive car insurance is insurance that protects against all kinds of risks or damage, such as collisions, overturning, slipping, or falling down, the risk of losing vehicles due to theft, damage whose repair costs are above 75% of the sum insured, and other risks that occur in motor vehicles as long as they are not excluded in the insurance policy.

Unfortunately, there are still many people who think that the process and way of claiming car insurance are too complicated. Car insurance claims are a right for every policyholder who is also the insured party. How to claim car insurance itself is not difficult, as long as you meet the terms and conditions of the insurance policy. Take it easy; MAGI will share how car insurance claims are immediately accepted. Let's take a look!

How Long Does a Car Insurance Claim Take?

In general, car insurance claims usually take up to 5 working days. However, this time does not apply to every claim process. There are other things that affect the length of the claim, such as the level of damage to the car and the completeness of the documents attached when submitting a claim. If the documents are incomplete, the insurance company will ask you to provide follow-up documents so that the insurance claim process can be delayed until all documents have been collected completely.

In addition, if there is severe damage to your car, the partner workshop may take longer for the repair process, which may affect the insurance claim time until it is liquidated.
