Hi, My son has a motability car and insurance that is driven by his support staff. His car was damaged by them and a no fault claim was made. Am i being unreasonable to expect the driver or his employer to pay the excess fee of £100?

    I don't think its unreasonable to ask them, if anything they should be liable for it. They can't damage the vehicle themselves and them expect you to be out of pocket (Pay) becuase of it. If it was their fault they should pay the excess.

    I'm with a @woodbine and would pay up

    Generally you can't employ someone and then make them pay for accidental damage they cause

    But like others have said, in a much more eloquent way than I ever could, it depends on the nature of the contracts and stuff
