[quote=Anonymous]My kid borrowed my car slowly pulling into parking spot scrapped against other parked car. Not on my policy.

Located driver in store gave insurance information. Person was really mad yelling and kinda nasty.

Person asked the kid number,  for Fathers phone number. Me. Plus insurance card and address. They provided only their mobile number.

He called yelling at me. Like 30 minutes. Finally I say look I saw picture Just a scrape meet me at body shop I will pay.

Somehow he thinks I will meet him on ten minutes notice but at work gets mad I am ducking him calls my insurance next day.

Here is weird part he keeps calling. I don’t rates to go up so I agree to pay. I keep asking for estimate never comes. My insurance called me but my car zero damage. But he never brought car in for estimate.

Finally, he wants me to meet him at body shop of his choice. I show up. He does not bring car. Ok. I say where is written estimate. He has none. He calls owner over and says I showed up a few weeks ago around closing and you told me maybe $1,200 or $1,400 to fix. He wants cash it check. I explain I brought credit card to auto body shop to pay. I expected car here or at last written estimate. He was like better pay or insurance going to go up.

I talk to owner afterwards and he thought very fishy. I shows him picture said maybe $1,000.

I call my insurance company and I said look did he ever  bring this car in for an estimate since he said filing a claim. They said no.

It is three months now. What now.

I have an accident on my policy as they charged me as soon as he called. I switched insurance companies and added kid to policy.

I am guessing car got stolen, totaled, accident etc and he still wants his Money. Weird he won’t bring car in. I literally showed up to pay.

Zero damage my car.

Is there anything else I can do. My old insurance of no help. They left case open.

My old insurance did not pay. They want my kid to talk to them. But for what? To admit fault?

I lost all communication with guy after I said unless that car comes on for written estimate and I pay body shop directly I am not paying.
