Some of you will remember last September I was hit from behind by a young lad in a Cmax. I`ve now been awarded £2`500. All well and good....but the claims management company who were acting on behalf of me via my insurance company are taking 25% of that.

No idea if this is correct but it seems to me that the other party`s insurance should cover their fee.

Or am I wrong?

Just sorted my claim out for an accident I had 6months ago, the solicitors offered a settlement amount pending liability

5050 split id receive half the amount

75\25 split id receive 75 percent

But thankfully id got 100% confirmation a week ago so I get all the money

By the sounds of what your saying its been declared split liability of some sort. Did you pay for personal accident cover through your insurance company or did you claim through a company like they show on tv

James

Nope. I claimed through my ins company and the liability was all the other drivers, I had the dashcam to prove it which I didn't even need.

have a check through your paper work something not right there

I would have thought that seeing as I was not at all at fault then the liability for everything is on the other party. Why am I having to pay anything at all to anyone?

I`ll be phoning the insurance company tomorrow.

Don't phone the insurance phone the solicitors! Insurance won't be able to help you :)

James

I need to phone the insurers to chase up the replacement tow-bar. They had a £700 quote from some company and i`m not letting it slide. But i`ll have a word about the charge.

ever have any luck sorting this mate ?
