If you didn't go through your own carrier and you went through that of the party that rear ended you, same thing. They have to provide you a letter indicating you were not at fault.
When you get that letter, your carrier will be obligated to reimburse you the surcharge amount.
While I work for an insurance company and am often explaining our actions that most don't understand, if I were you, I would invest the minimal time involved in getting this letter and get your money back. Better in your pocket than in theirs.
