Car Forum / Chevrolet / Chevrolet Malibu / January 2005Insurance Claim
I made an insurance claim from an ice storm that damaged my car on Xmas eve, I just got the check but it says Pay to order of "my name" and "auto body repair shop", can I cash this or do I need to have someone from the shop go with me? Never had a check written to me like that... didn't know you could even! Seems stupid... oh well. Ask insurance agent?? Or bank?? -Mike -- A happy kid behind the wheel of a 98 Mustang GT Cold air intake FRPP 3.73 gears Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter Flowmaster 40 Series mufflers (self-installed woohoo) Hi-speed fan switch 255/60R-15 rear tires Subframe connectors Aluminum adjustable clutch quadrant > I made an insurance claim from an ice storm that damaged my car on Xmas eve, > I just got the check but it says Pay to order of "my name" and "auto body > repair shop", can I cash this or do I need to have someone from the shop go > with me? > Never had a check written to me like that... didn't know you could even! > Seems stupid... oh well.

Now I just have to save up the 500 dollars difference and I can get my car fixed, I hate winter, stupid Icestorm, someone told me to wait until summertime cause they said the paint will cure better in the summer than in winter but I thought the body shop cooked the car in a high temp paint room or something. > Good =). > [quoted text clipped - 39 lines] >> > go >> >> with me? My guess is you still owe money on the car. The bank requires this to keep you from getting a $3000 repair check on a $5000 car you owe $4500 on and walking away leaving them with a car worth $1500. If you do in fact own the car, then carry it back to the insurance company and tell them you want your money. If you and the bank own it then you will be required to fix the car. If the body shop just endorses the check because they're nice guys and really don't want the business, then they'll have to fix it for free if the bank gets it back. >I made an insurance claim from an ice storm that damaged my car on Xmas eve, >I just got the check but it says Pay to order of "my name" and "auto body >repair shop", can I cash this or do I need to have someone from the shop go >with me? I owe 12 grand on the car, but I deposited teh check with my sig only and they put the money in my account. > My guess is you still owe money on the car.

Then some teller wasn't paying attention. A multiple party check should be endorsed by all payees. I deposted a check once to me and my roommate ( deposit refund ). I'd already given my roommate his half but when the credit union serviced the ATM and went to process the check they called me up and said he needed to come by the branch to sign it. >>I owe 12 grand on the car, but I deposited teh check with my sig only and >>they put the money in my account.

I didnt use the ATM i went to the branch. > I didnt use the ATM i went to the branch. Then the person staring you in the face screwed up. What does it really matter? The and says you ar stuck with THAT body shop. I hope you weren't going to use the money for a cruise.  SignatureRichard N.
