On Friday night was round a friends with the car parked outside and heard a thumping noise about midnight, out the window see this kid go rolling round on the floor behind my car! Gone outside and they have run off, turns out the ran over the bonnet and roof, denting both! Anyway cut a long story short chased them and caught them, police were called and kids were nicked! At first they were completely denying it, but once confronted with the fact the police found footprints on the car, they changed their minds and admitted it! So police phoned me and told me they had reprimanded the one which did and that's all they are doing, if I want any compensation I have to take civil action against them! ****** typical, they get away with it and don't have to pay a penny, I have to fork out £350 excess, to top it I only just changed my insurance on wednesday! Has anyone else had similar experience or advice about trying to claim the excess back from the parents through small claims court?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
