Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Service My car windscreen got chipped by a stone thrown up by the truck in front of me. I rang the NRMA when I got home, they immediately contacted a windscreen repairer who rang back soon after. There were no costs or hassles for me, and I didn't lose my no claim bonus. Thank you
