Excellent Service

I've used Direct Accident many times and find them to be efficient and reliable. The Area Sales Manager is friendly and always on the end of the phone.
If you've had an accident that isn't your fault then they will sort everything for you with no costs, including a car and any compensation you may be due. Would highly recommend them.
Over the years we've used various accident management companies, and have found that the service we get from Direct Accident Management and the attitude of the Area Sales Manager far superior to the other companies. Even when the claims handlers are under pressure from myself, they are always professional and helpful.
Over the past couple of months I have recommended them to other garages and car bodyshops, and always to my customers who have also had positive experiences.
Thanks for everything, Simon @ SGH and Sons Bodyworks in Bristol.

Excellent! Could not have asked for more!

This review should have been written YEARS ago. I was just doing a tidy up and saw the folder I had received from direct accident management back in 2007! Long story short, I was still a uni student back then, I was driving on the way back home, had an accident which was not my fault. What happened was that the other car pulled out from another lane and leaving me no space to stop. police weren't being helpful at all, and being stereotype and looked at me as a young kid and assuming it was my fault. I was very stressed and did not know what to do, I originally searched online for a bit of advice, then came accross direct accident's website. I left a message on their website and they called me back within 2 hours to discuss the case. Soon they took on the case and had it processed for me in couple of days. I was given a replacement car while my car was off road. They had been extremely helpful with the case, arranging replacement cars, claiming from third party, speaking to the witness on my behalf. I could not be happier with their service, their service had been second to none. I can not thank them enough for the service they had provided. MUCH THANKS FOR THE DIRECT ACCIDENT STAFFS THAT HANDLED MY CASE. Your service was truly appreciated. Gary

Amazing People

Here at Oval garage at SW8 we pride ourselves on our customer care and working with Direct Accident has enhanced our service. I can call my area Manager, Dawn, at any time - always ready to give us a hand and help us out. Very honest and efficient. Always on the ball! I have worked with many different companies but none like Direct Accident. The speed of resolving issues and supplying the hire vehicle (same day) you would not find better! I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND WORKING WITH THEM. I have also met Nicole, the National Sales Manager, who always makes time for us , no matter how busy she may be!!

We have been working with Direct Accident for over 8 years and are very happy with the service they provide to us & our customers - they are the only non fault company we recommend.

A lot of our clients have prestigious cars, Direct Accident can provide like for like replacement cars unlike many insurance companies.

Our customers are treated with respect & really looked after. The repairs are authorised quickly & our invoices are paid promptly.

Absolutely no hesitation in recommending this well run, long established business to our clients, other repairers & the public.

Simply The Best!

I have been in the motor trade for 25 years and have tried many accident management companies. Having suffered poor payment, poor response, no cars etc I now only refer my work to Direct Accident, who I have used since 2009. They deal with each claim efficiently, look after my customers and pay me on time. Once I phone a job through I can rest assured that it is in their capable hands. My Area Sales Manager, Nicole Markham is extremely accomplished, proficient and professional. I don't know what I would do without her!
I would highly recommend Direct Accident to all independent recovery companies.

Can't fault this non-fault claims company!

I recommend Direct Accident to my customers following non fault car accidents as they are really helpful, quick & take the hassle out of trying to deal with insurance companies.

My customers are happy with the replacement cars, I am paid well and on time for the repairs. It really is a simple process. I have worked with other companies before and there is always a catch or the service slackens after you've been using them for a while but I'm happy to say the staff are as fantastic today as they were on my first referral.

a great company to work with.

SANOR MOTORS: Dedication and commitment best describe these people.

have been working with accident direct for a few months now. They keep a close relation with me and I would like to thank Dawn(area sales manager) and Nicole (Nation sales manager) for their commitment and up front attitude when it comes to dealing with insurance claims. They are specialists in making everything much easier and I look forward to working with them for many more years to come :)

Quick, reliable easy to deal with...

We have used DAM for approx 6 years we have passed many of customers there way. The process always runs smoothly and communication within the company is always excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend them. We have had other accident management companies approach me for business but we are very happy with the service and don't feel the need to look elsewhere. Jen our sales rep is always pleasant and helpful, nothing is ever too much trouble.

An excellent service all round

We have recommended Direct Accident Management to many of our customers who have been really happy with the service they have provided. They supply a quick and easy service, which does not cost our customers a penny. They do not pay their excess and they get their car repaired were they want (us -Facelifts). The team in the head office our always professional and act quickly to get our customers in a hire car as and when needed. We have an area sales rep Jennifer who ensures the process runs smoothly and we can call her at any time if we ever have a query. All in all a brilliant company to work with, I will not hesitate in recommending them.
