B1k3rdude.....thats interesting, a good bargaining point if I renew with them, I have direct email to the girl handling my claim, always get a swift reply, iam happy doing things this wayfor the same reason as you, no BS or red tape., 4 days since accident, they have agreed to pay repairs and estimate was emailed on friday, no answer yet but still early days, iam happy with progress at the moment :

Joerock....understand where your coming from matey....more than one reason for doing things this way, main one is I want things sorted the easiest and quickest way......too busy and its a short life and all that, but at the same time iam not going to let them screw me, I will tell whole story when case is fully settled, you never know whos watching
could still be written off, insurance companys vary in what % of what they think the bike is worth, that they will spend on repair bills before writing it off...not sure why they do this as you have pointed out it does cost them more...parhsps its paper/leg work thing........if it is written off it will still go to the same garage for repairs, blokes a great guy so happy to push s bit of work his way .
yamfazman......mrs smidsy wouldnt admit liability at the time but she did admit to me and the police thst she was attempting a U-turn, theres no signs that say you cant and iam not sure if it was an illegal manoeuvre but it was a foccin stupid place to do one, iam pretty sure this has helped my claim....not used whitness or pictures yet but I have offered them
sent estimate in o n friday morning, no reply yet but is still early days, legs still aching but swelling/brusing has calmed down a bit.........iam a lucky foccer as I have 2 fazers so not keeping me off the road....iam a bit more cautious now :rolleyes
