If the driver of the vehicle who crashed into you has insurance, you would file a claim with his or her insurance company, not your own, and this should not jeopardize your no claims bonus. However, if the driver is uninsured, and you elect to seek redress from your own company, this may jeopardize the bonus. Check with your agent to be sure: policies vary from company to company and sometimes from policy to policy.
Absolutely. Would you pay someone who owed you money. The no claims bonus is a gimmick anyway. Allstate advertises the refund of premium bonus if you don't have any claims. However, in order to get this bonus check you have to purchase an endorsement that costs you as much as the bonus could possibly be.

Sounds like you are not including all the information. If you had an accident that was someone else's fault then their auto insurance would pay for repair of your vehicle and your insurance company would not even have to be involved. Or is this one of those not your fault accidents where no other vehicles were involved but a tree or telephone pole jumped in front of your car. That would be your fault. Some companies do offer no claims discounts that you loose no matter what the claim is which includes all claims like glass claims, deer collisions, uninsured motorists claims, etc. that normally would not affect your rate.
It depends (as always) on the company and the laws of the State, but usually no more than 60 days.
