  • I particularly like the way people judge you on this forum when all you are after is a bit of advice.

    I particularly like the way people judge you on this forum when all you are after is a bit of advice.

    There is no judging, you took out insurance to protect you from this exact scenario but seemed reluctant to make a claim on that insurance. In the space of less than 24 hours you’ve gone from not wanting to claim to already having a claim paid out. What you have said so far does quite add up so of course people will be skeptical.
  • I didn’t say I didn’t have a claim. I’d already raised it with dhl and don’t see why a 3rd party insurance company that I paid extra for should be at a loss. Surely dhl should be covering this and that’s my point. If I hadn’t paid the extra for insurance dhl would still be paying out themselves.

    Just for the record the person I referred to who tried to claim a £8000 watch didn’t get their money back etc

    If you hadn't paid for extra insurance then you would be out of pocket. DHL would not be paying you for any more than the insurance you had taken out.
