Nope, the 'Cat's are levels of write-offs, not just claims.
This is the reason you were right to not pay the excess mate, you would be out of pocket for months and, in frustration, you probably would've ended up going 50/50 to finish it.
I'd get more quotes than what you've got though, and include EVERYTHING. If you're saying that the boot isn't opening properly then it needs fixing and if the splitter is bust because his crash forced the car onto the curb then it's included as well.
I would have thought the Police could intervene to ensure the guy takes the correct action once they have received an admission - otherwise what's the point of him admitting it!?!

You'll be pleased to know that if the that geezer doesn't respond then it automatically goes against him after a while of waiting. All though I don't know how long that is.
If Albany don't sort you out, Europa Consultants are a fantastic third party claimant company, VX220 owners use em all the time with great results. My mate had someone knock him off his bike, and they had him a courtesy car the next day and a quote from the other insurers for a settlement fee in a week.
Good luck!

Re: f**kING RAGIN! !!!!!
No. They claim your costs which are passed to you either as cash if it is a right-off or by fixing your car to your standards, the costs for your courtesy car and their fees from the other parties insurer. I believe the company is owned by a Pistonhead'er. As you can imagine, parking dings on fibreglass is messy business, hence the high usage by VX/Elise owners, and I have only ever heard positive results. My mate has been more than happy with them too, they are even claiming for all his kit (helmet, textiles etc) even though he didn't even touch the ground!
http://www.europaconsultants.co.uk/ Check their courtesy car fleet out too!

Lol, how dare an office close at 5!
Great news though mate, make sure all blemishes are taken into account, front and back.
To be honest, its usually the best policy to let your insurance company deal with a claim like this.They know the delaying tactics, probably even know the company if not the actual people.
I did this and they handled the lot, the excess was theoretically due, but I never actually had to hand over any money. My company arranged the repairs so no delays, and then chased the other company for payment.

Jesus, only seeing this now. Glad you got her sorted in the end though. Looking forward to seeing some pics.
Actually, some bint in a bloody Avensis scuffed my left rear corner while I was in the chippers getting dinner. Gutted, cos theres no CCTV and I didnt spot it until a few days later.
