VerifiedHi, I’m John, solicitor, and reviewing your question
In relation to your debt claim, just start proceedings straight away, in the Northern T. Civil Admin Tribunal.
The NTCAT process is very good to meditate disputes of this type as it forces the parties to come together to discuss the issues involved.
In most cases at mediation the matter will settle.
The matter is Civil
You will be the applicant and the insurer the respondent.
The important filing document is the points of claim. This document needs to be carefully drafted.
What you need to do is to write the complaint in a chronological order detailing what is the issue and what action you have taken to try and rectify the matter.
The chronological order need to be numbered with points 1, 2, 3, etc. with each point being a separate item.
I recommend that you download the application first, complete the same and then upload as required to commence the claim.
