Posting over two months after it was stolen isn't a great start...  It would have been sold on or disappeared by now. 

I had a big fight with Miway insurance, I lost. They refused to pay because I was at home when it was stolen. Even though Iv been with them for almost seven years without a single claim.

You aren't the first to complain about Miway.

 

I hope you take your business elsewhere.

 

I have never heard of a claim being denied because you were home when the theft took place. Read the fine print and if there are no such clauses take the matter to the ombudsman.

Interesting. So do Miway then also not cover theft by way of hijacking because you were in your car when it was stolen?

Please give some more info regarding this. Did they refer you to their wording at all?

What wording, are those miway contracts not done over the phone? 

 

Do you not have a picture of the actual bike? or did your bike get feautured in Tread? 

 

I do not think anyone is prepared to look out for every silverback sola. What Tyres did it have? Did it have a garmin mount?

Yes done over the phone but they do send you policy wording and state that you should notify them should you not agree or want to terminate in the cooling off period.

 

If there was no forced entry which might be the case then they will not pay out

D@mn just hate when i hear how okes get they rides taken as it happend to me!!

Check out Santam i had two successful claims in the space of 6 months - Roadbike - completely shattered the frame going down in the bunch and they lifted it and after inspection - new bike , about 5 months later got bikejacked on the mtb - even tho when i was knocked off my by bike by knife wielding okes, i didnt fight back - opted to run in the bush so i can keep my phone to make that emergency call - still payed out (after case opened etc, and some investigation, using my strava as proof that i was there etc etc).

Yes it might be in that lines but do you lock every thing up when you are at home? Get the wording read it and if still not happy go the ombuds route
