Your Legal Rights
Had an Accident in Guildford? You Have the Right to Choose Your Own Repairer
Don't let your insurer pressure you
Many insurers will try to steer you towards their own preferred repairer network. But under UK consumer law, you have the legal right to choose any bodyshop you want for your accident repair. Your insurer cannot refuse to pay for a repair simply because you chose an independent repairer.
You can choose any bodyshop — your insurer must respect this
Your insurer cannot reduce your claim for choosing your own repairer
You are entitled to a like-for-like courtesy car
You don't have to accept the first repair estimate
Non-fault claims should cost you nothing out of pocket
Your insurer must use manufacturer-approved parts if you request them
