If an insurance company pays a claim and the work or the parts used end up being less expensive than the paid claim who gets the excess money?
- You get the amount of money that the job was estimated at. If there is excess money left over, that's yours.
- In cases where the shop bills the insurance company directly, though, there is no excess; insurance pays what the shop bills.
- In the UK you are compensated following an accident - compensation means putting you back into the position that you were prior to the accident happening. If your vehicle was damaged in a RTA and you are claiming from the guilty driver's insurer you are paid the estimated cost of repair or the book value for the vehicle if it is written off. If you choose not to spend this money on repairing your vehicle or use a cheaper source to repair your vehicle - this is a matter for you. But you must remember that inferior repairs will likely mean your vehicle is valued far less so you are not really making excess money.

Can you switch your deductible to 100 before repairs then back to 1000 after the work is done?
Is this what we would call in the UK 'voluntary excess' on an insurance policy? Your insurance company may allow you to change your excess mid-term but you will probably have to pay an 'additional premium' as you will most likely have received a discount when you took the insurance policy out for choosing a higher excess in the first place. Your insurer may get suspicious if you do this then immediately make a claim or they discover that an accident for which you are making a claim took place before you requested a change in your excess. This may result in your claim being rejected. Carefully consider the excess or deductible when you choose your insurance policy. If you choose a higher excess at the start to obtain a discount on your policy then you should be prepared to pay out in the event of a claim. CQ
