avery time we phoned we where told vehicle engineer assessor was ill would come next week. i have heard some claims running for 15 month ect. we where told our car would ready for collection as it driverable as damage is on back bumper size of a football. they came took the hire car as needed to give it to some else. the day we where going collect our car we recieved the letter.

Is the extent of the damage a dented rear bumper? If so, why would it need to be recovered on a trailer? Any competent bodyshop could repair/replace a bumper in a couple of days so possibly it's the ridiculous claim for eight weeks car hire which is causing the other party to dispute the claim.

Shame, if it had been your Insurers you may have had some come back on them.

Is the company regulated by anyone?
