I keep getting pestered with emails to
Call Suzuki First
with a freephone number for theft or accident before calling the insurer.
Has anybody used this service? I can't believe it is free!! Nothing's for nothing these days.

I have not used such a service and in all honesty I don't see what they are going to be able to offer me that i can't deal with directly via the normal channels. I am a cynical old git though so I could have it wrong.

It doesn't cost you anything directly, it all comes out of the claim. You should check the terms of your insurance before you sign up for one of those services though because the insurance company probably insists that you use one of their approved repairers or rental companies.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

Don't forget that no matter what the insurance company may want it is your car and you can get it repaired at a facility of your choice, approved or not. After all the approval scheme is less about providing a comprehensive meaningful repair than it is about the facility and the insurer having a mutually rewarding relationship. The entire insurance industry is a corrupt mess emboldened by being a compulsory provision of driving a car.

The question is do I use it or not though?
