I recently claimed against my insurance company for damage to my car, the insurance company agreed that the reapirs were €3,500.00 but when i went to claim they deducted the VAT because I did not produce a VAT invoice for the repairs. Insurance companies are not registered for VAT so the VAT section of the bill should not matter to them, are they legally allowed to do this?
I asked the Revenue Commissioners and they say they have no legislation to cover this, I asked the insurance regulator but they just agree with everything the insurance companies do, I checked out my policy and it does not say anythnig about them deducting vat from claims if VAT invoice is not produced, anybody else getting the run around form insurance companies on this?
