believe thats if they repair it, when replaced you have to pay.

Yeah thats right if you have a repair you dont need to pay but to replace the screen it depends what your access is on your insurance mine happens to be ?50 . Wonder how much the screen would be if you were to just pay out yourself and not go though the insurance . They do say though that it doesnt affect your ncb if your claiming on a windscreen
