📝 Contract trap: The most common reason for rejection despite comprehensive insurance – violation of insurance terms and conditions

Is your damage even insured? The underestimated trap of policy terms

An accident occurs, the damage is clear, but the insurance company refuses to pay – a nightmare for any vehicle owner. Besides formal errors in the report, violations of the insurance terms and conditions one of the most frequent and frustrating reasons for a being denied .

Many policyholders are unaware that the use of the vehicle must correspond exactly to what has been agreed in the insurance contract and the associated terms and conditions.

🛑 Attention: When your insurance will cease to provide benefits

Your policy is a legally binding contract. If the actual use of your car deviates from the contractually agreed insurance terms , the insurer can legally refuse payment or at least reduce it.

Common violations that lead to rejection:

Unregistered drivers: Was the damage caused by a person who is not listed as a driver in the contract (e.g., a young child who was not registered)?
Commercial use: Was the privately insured vehicle actually used for commercial journeys (courier services, regular deliveries)?
Unauthorized car sharing: Was the car made available to third parties via unauthorized platforms or contrary to the contract rules?
Changed risk characteristics: For example, the use of a garage that was specified in the contract but later permanently abandoned.

In these cases, the insurance company doesn't primarily examine the damage itself, but rather the terms and conditions of the contract . And if the usage doesn't meet rejection is almost guaranteed.
