Tomorrow I'm going to ask for a copy of what they have submitted and then speak to a solicitor.
What's really got me is that I spotted a pub near the corner had a CCTV camera so I popped in. The landlady had seen us parked up but thinks the tapes will have been wiped by now
I'm kicking myself for not checking sooner.I was hoping I had a witness but all she saw was the lady "helping" me. No she was the person that drove in to me. Her partner said it was damaged on the bumper at the right hand side. It's a 3 series BMW and I've been told they can be quite expensive.
Edit: I spoke to another person at my insurance company today. The rather wonderful lady was friendly, understood that filtering is legal and thought that I was doing it in a safe manor. She agreed that the damage to my bike was inconsistent with what the 3rd party had told me on the phone and is getting a copy of their form in the hope that it shows they're lying with regard to the damage, she thought regardless that it should be 100% car driver paying up but didn't try to give me fault hope. I took her name so that I can ask for her in future discussions with them.
