Accident at Roundabout

<< < (6/6)

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Have you considered appointing your own Loss Assessor its what we did when we had our house fire. Downside would be that you would need to pay for this service. In the case of our house fire they made their money out of the winning rebuild contractor. I also had an insurance company refuse to pay for a bonnnett respray when our Mini was broken into and had radio stollen. The bonnet had glass fragments embedded in it. As well as taking photos some glass remained in the paintwork. I insisted that an engineer visited to access the damage. I was advised if they found against me I would have to bear the cost! Suffice to say they found in my favour!  I suspect its all to avoid costs.

Well that sounds like a total and complete result :)

Honestly....far better than I would have expected given the penny pinching nature of insurance, and their engineer/assessor has been very generous. I suspect he has some idea of the effort and pain that goes into renovating old bikes and has reflected both that, and your concerns over unseen damage.

Always nice to hear a happy ending :)

Your success or failure is usually down to who the underwriter is on your policy. Some are dreadful other great. I had a claim with Aviva on a stolen work van and they were wonderful. It pays them to be good as now all my policies and pension are with Aviva. Plus here I am recommending them to the world.
