Charl70 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hi there my girlfriend car was vandalised last Sunday morning around 1am in peak hill ,also around 7 others had keys scraped along them or the wing mirrors smashed off , bill of around ?500 to repair,also heard from my mechanic mate that cars in thickett road had been vandalised as well, looks like having a drop kerb put in is the only way to keep cars fairly safe from these half head vandals Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/98948-cars-vandalised/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Aelfheah Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I'm sorry to hear that. People who do this sort of thing are absolute sh*tbags. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/98948-cars-vandalised/#findComment-976779 Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatherJack Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 On Friday (18/03) evening at 7pm we had a large piece of kerbstone chucked at our windscreen.Car parked on drive, SE5/SE22 borders. Group of teenage boys seen running away and caught on CCTV. Reported to Police. Phoned Insurance company who t/f me to Autoglass immediately, excess paid and promises of no reduction to NCB but of course renewal premium will be affected and that of neighbours. Sigh.

Sigh.Insurance is a joke, isn't it.You pay out for years, then if you eventually have to claim, they up your future premiums to recoup what THEY had to pay out.

kford Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 It's because, in spite of it not being your fault, you're considered more of a risk. No wonder people drive uninsured.

Lazero Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I was reading the other day how the car insurance industry as a whole generally makes a loss, and has done over a 30-year period. Even when they turn a profit (2013 & 2014) it is really slender. If you have an FT subscription you can see the article here: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/3/3aeb5112-eb8f-11e5-bb79-2303682345c8.html#axzz43cwU63k0It's thanks to intense competition that they don't shoot up even further. I wonder how much money we could all save if senseless acts of vandalism were reduced. The cost of 1 minute's damage is crazy.
