Q: Am I obligated to pay for something that a business charged me less for a year ago and is now trying to reclaim the fund
I had received work done on my vehicle from caliber collision under two claims. Geico covered part of the claims and caliber Charge me for the remaining balance. Apparently the lady at the desk made a mistake and didn’t charge me the full amount. Now it is a year later and they are calling me tryIng to claim that money.
What are my rights here?
It was their mistake, and I am not sure if what I owe is correct. am I obligated to pay them a year later?
A: It's impossible to answer this question without reviewing all of the paperwork you signed - repair estimates, invoices, etcetera. Many times with insurance claims, the repair shop includes in the paperwork that you are responsible for anything insurance will not pay for. More facts are needed as well regarding why there were two claims.
