Aviva insurance

Options
Have my motorbike insured through Zenith insurance. Informed 3 months ago that I had been involved in an accident. checked date of claim against me from AVIVA and I was out of the country at the time - this was passed to AVIVA. Still insisted it was me who was involved. Sent flight details , still the same. My company sent an engineer to check bike - confirmed not involved in an accident. My company saying it must be a mistake. Next found accident happened 6 hours away from where I live and names given did not tie up. At this point was still trying to sell bike , but no one interested while this nonsense going on. Eventually it was found out that an incorrect registration was given. However I've had to wait 3 months to clear my name and in that time bike price dropped £300 - do I have any recourse - AVIVA wont speak to me and Zenith say they cant act as no claim settled. So I've done nothing wrong and been penalised - any thoughts>>

    You need to have a negligent party to claim off. That won't be Aviva

    (Don't understand how you were stopped from selling because of the claim against you)

    As above in what way did an insurance claim affect you selling the bike?

    Not once have i ever asked a seller are you currently disputing an insurance claim, and oddly no buyer has ever asked me the same question.

    Who said the bikes value dropped £300 also? Its worth what someone is willing to pay.
