 * Comment - I think the previous nomination was about "bingle" as the slang word for a car accident, not the company. I think a Merge and redirect to Suncorp Group (the company that owns the brand) is appropriate in the circumstances. Deus et lex (talk) 09:56, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
 * The first AfD seems to be about the slang word, but the 2nd AfD has comments about the car company. <b style="color:#CCCC00">Joseph</b><b style="color:#00FF00">2302</b> (talk) 10:02, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Merge: into Suncorp Group, deleting the third paragraph of the article, which seems overly promotional. Meticulo (talk) 14:42, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Disambiguate/merge info only: I agree with 's comment below that a DAB page would be a better option than merging with a redirect, hence strike through. One of the items on the DAB page could be "Bingle Insurance, part of the Suncorp Group". The sole citation and the relationship to AAI Limited could be included on the Suncorp Group page.

 * Delete or merge: This particular brand does not appear to meet WP:NCORP / WP:GNG. Merger may be an option, though the current Suncorp Group article does not mention its AAI Limited subsidiary (previously Australian Alliance Insurance, I think) or its relations with Vero_Insurance or this brand. AAI Limited's various entities and brands are listed on p76 of this financial report. Introducing Bingle onto the overall parent article could be WP:UNDUE but we lack any other redirect target. The present article is providing little more than an "It's a brand" placemarker, and deletion may be the better option, as well as being consistent with the second AfD discussion and decision.

 * merge/delete with no redirect--- bingle is well known as an Australian slang term, this is a non-notable company. Would suggest salting this to force any article to first get a review either through DRAFT process or at least by an admin Gnangarra 15:07, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I would be against salting, purely because I think that Bingle would be a sensible disambiguation page. There are multiple people with surname Bingle (which is how I came across this article in the first place), as well as Bingle Bangle and Bingles, and thus I would suggest delete and then create a new dab page would be best solution. For that reason, I'm also against keeping the redirect, as suggested by earlier. <b style="color:#CCCC00">Joseph</b><b style="color:#00FF00">2302</b> (talk) 15:15, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok other uses and being a surname makes sens, I must admit I did think of Lara Bingle when I saw this but didnt think of making it dab page. Gnangarra 15:30, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
