Create a single claim timeline. Record accident, intimation, tow-in, survey, estimate upload, approval, supplementary estimate, repair completion and final invoice times.

What applies to this exact problem

  1. Create a single claim timeline

    Record accident, intimation, tow-in, survey, estimate upload, approval, supplementary estimate, repair completion and final invoice times.

  2. Split the delay by owner

    For every pending item, mark insurer, surveyor, workshop, parts supplier, police/authority or customer. Escalate to the party that can actually move it.

  3. Ask for written status

    Request approved amount, rejected items, pending document, surveyor contact, expected next action and customer-payable estimate.

  4. Control supplementary repairs

    When hidden damage appears, ensure the garage sends a supplementary estimate and receives approval before replacing parts where practicable.

  5. Protect evidence

    Keep pre-repair photos, accident description, driving licence, registration, policy, estimate, survey communication and workshop job card.

  6. Escalate with a deadline

    Send a concise timeline to the insurer grievance officer, asking for a decision or reasoned status—not merely 'please expedite'.
