The takaful operator rejected Bernard\u2019s own damage claim on the grounds that the covered vehicle was used for hire or reward, which constitutes a breach of the Limitations as to Use of the policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FINDINGS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Bernard purchased a Private Car Policy for Private Use with comprehensive cover. The Certificate of Takaful stipulates the following terms and conditions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bernard stated that the driver, Andy, was a close friend who borrowed the covered vehicle for a family trip with his permission and without any payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, the takaful operator\u2019s investigation found a Facebook advertisement showing the exact vehicle being offered for rental under \u2018XXX Car Rental Enterprise.\u2019 Bernard admitted that he operates a car rental business, owns XXX Car Rental Enterprise, and had previously used the covered vehicle for rental purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n KEPUTUSAN<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The case manager upheld the takaful operator\u2019s decision. The evidence suggests the insured vehicle was likely used for hire or reward, constituting a breach of the policy\u2019s use limitations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although there is no proof that the vehicle was being rented at the exact time of the accident, its overall use remains relevant, as usage affects risk classification and premium determination. Since the policy expressly prohibits use for hire or reward, the cumulative evidence shows non-compliance with its terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The takaful operator\u2019s decision to nullify and void the certificate is therefore justified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The takaful operator rejected Bernard\u2019s own damage claim on the grounds that the covered vehicle was used for hire or reward, which constitutes a breach of the Limitations as to Use of the policy.
