No you dont. No insurer I know of employs assessors- they are employed by policy holders.

In defence of mcjordi this is untrue. All general insurers I know of instruct or employ assessors. The term is ambiguous and sometimes applied to motor engineers or claims investigators who assess claims (and sometimes agree settlement) for the insurer. They may be employed as insurer staff or an external firm. It is possible that a desk based motor engineer, who agrees repair estimates or total loss settlements would not be on the road, but may still use the title assessor.

In terms a motor policy I cannot think of a situation where a policyholder would need to assess their own claim.

thank you, the bold bit is essentially what i do
as for the bad debts they are not bad debts they get paid

Forgive me for my scepticism, but you are telling me that an insurance company employs somebody to drive up the costs of claims?

Looking back at your posting history, I really think you are telling porkies

1. You mention having a car you needed to repair- this implies you dont have a company. Even central London have co cars for jobs away from Tube lines. Very very unusual.

2. Age. 24 is very young to be anything other than a trainee adjuster.

i have a company car and my personal fiesta so what if i mention a car needed to be repaired - im not a mechanic.
