Insurance Assessors......Help Please LOL



  H22A7 Accord Type R


dont worry mate, heads are gonna roll, mainly a certain independant assessement company.
 


yeah i would say to them i want someone who knows what they are talking about and knows what they are looking @. thats a piss take and i wouldnt stand for it.
 
  Clio 1.4, SV650S


what a c**t



id reject his assessment purely because he maintains that its a non standard sunroof. it would take 5 mins and a call to any dealership to find out that this isnt the case. hes clearly negligent.



get em for everything you can, all the time youve spent chasing it. you dont pay insurance money to be f**ked about in the event of an accident.



it makes me really angry!

I hope you take them to the cleaners for the maximum you can get Rob.

Just like they do to everyone else on a daily basis.
 


Wouldnt just get them to pay for your repairs, but get them to pay for the stress, inconvenience, humility of driving a mondeo, phone calls, etc.

Like someone said earlier, sounds like theyre just trying to get out of paying for it

well doesnt this sound familiar, f**kin assessors !!!

dont give up mate, i got their in the end and so will you
 
  H22A7 Accord Type R


gonna try and pick the car up tomorrow and limp it to the bodyshop of MY choice, speak to the guys there, and get in touch with some proper assessors, hopefully ask them if they know about roofs on clios etc, and pay one to come check the car for me. By the way, im proper loving the mondeo!! bought and paid for, £450, and its so comfy, eats motorway miles! Motoring with a difference.............tis true, there is more to life than cars!!

(my polishing hand is wonderin whats going on though lol)
 
  H22A7 Accord Type R


got the car home, and gave it a wash today to make sure its easy to see the damage. its hard to capture on camera, you might be able to see the more obvious bits! I am gonna get the car on the jack and get all the wheels off, take some proper pics before i take it to another gargage and get my proper assessement.

ok looking at the pics, you have:

shattered top mounts
2 x knackered struts
possible knackered rack and/or track rod ends
a few bent wheels
possible knackered wishbones???

and f**k me, that roof is BAD
 
  H22A7 Accord Type R


believe me Fred, thats the only bits of the roof i can capture with the camera......there are creases about 2inches out from 3 corners of the sunroof - cannot catch them on camera.

to drive it certainly feels like the top mounts are shattered lol, feels like i have no bushes at all lol.

  H22A7 Accord Type R
still ongoing! nobody believes me about the roof, im a liar ya know!.........my cars always been a shed............everyone knows lol
 
  H22A7 Accord Type R
well............it has been quoted at £3k to repair it, but i still need an assessor to realise that im not lying, the roof dimples are related! They can write it off for me, fed up of the hassle. Clio's are great, just dont lower them

I really fel for you and cant believe this is still dragging on and on months later good on you for fighting the fight I cant be bothered to read the last 3 pages who was the insurer as im sure we can all learn a lesson from this - runs to the garage to look out my standard springs to put back on the car ;-(
