    Just now naka receive ako ng letter from my insurance company UCPB GEN asking me to reimburse the amount they have spent sa pag repair ng car ko when i got to an accident and filed a claim earlier this year which was 6 months ago. Their reason is humingi daw ako ng settlement sa adverse party na nakabanga sakin without letting then know, and now they have loss their chance para marecover ung nagastos nila by charging it from the taxi company na may hawak ng taxi na nakabanga sakin. The truth is, humingi talga ako ng ng settlement pero ndi para sa pag repair ng car, para lang pambayad sa participation fee which is around 4k and I also signed a document from the taxi company that hindi na ko hihingi pa ng further settlement aside from that. This is my first time sa ganitong situation thats why i didnt know what to do, so ngayon the letter is asking me to pay around 15k, I think thats the amount they spent to repair my car when I filed the claim. If sakaling iignore ko daw ung letter/demand nila, they will explore other legal remedies. Now I believe mali nga ung ginawa ko na humingi ako ng settlement sa adverse party without them knowing it nakalagay rin kasi sa policy na every letter/correspondence with the adverse party dapat may copy sila. Gusto ko lang naman malaman thats why I post this in this forum kung may laban pa ko dito or do I have no choice but to pay? Ang sakin lang, pambayad sa participation fee lang naman ang hiningi ko, wala akong binulsang pera from the incident.

    ano ang wordings ng settlement agreement mo with the taxi company?

    kung malinaw doon na ang settlement ay para lang sa participation fee mo and without prejudice sa habol ng insurance company, may lusot ka pa

    if the wordings are a comprehensive and final settlement of the issue/accident, medyo delikado posisyon mo at naisahan ka ng taxi company na yan

    *Qwerty yep hininga pa ko ng participation fee which is siningil ko pa from the taxi company.
    *prez - hindi ko kasi talga alam na hahabulin pa sya ng insurance company, akala ko they all care about the police report and participation fee. Wala akong copy nung agreement with the taxi company, ang naalala ko lang stated there is no further settlements akong hahabulin after that. But really ung participation fee ko lang talga ang sinigil ko sa kanila.

    Hindi sya naisahan, the taxi co. representatives only exercised due diligence on the matter and hindi masama ito.

Insurance Company Haunting Me, Pls Help!
