 My car has been written off / stolen and I am waiting for the money from the insurance company. Should I stop my payments?
|
You must continue making your monthly payments until the matter has been resolved with your insurance company. * Please ensure that you notify us on 0870 5050 150 as soon as possible after the theft or accident.
* If you choose not to maintain your monthly payments this could have an adverse affect on your credit rating and may affect your ability to obtain credit in the future. Interest may be charged on any amounts unpaid.

 What do I do if my car is written off / stolen and my insurance pay out doesn't cover what I still owe on my finance agreement?
|
Please note that if the amount paid by your insurance company is insufficient to cover what is still outstanding on your agreement, you will be required to pay the difference between the insurance company settlement figure, and the amount due to us in settlement of your agreement. If however, you've taken out BMW Shortfall insurance and paid all the premiums relating to this, this insurance cover will meet the difference between the insurance company settlement and the amount due to BMW Financial Services to settle your agreement.

 Can I take a payment holiday?
