I used White Dalton with a similar case with a cyclist... didn't get anywhere apart from a bill for repairs to my bike :( the cyclist didn't have any houses or insurance that could pay out so in a no win no fee it won't go any further.

I could have taken him to court but its time a money... and tbh damage was more to my confidence than the bike really....

For the sake of it I might even be tempted to try take someone to small claims over it, it would be worth it just if it made them sweat for a few months.

The last bit made me chuckle. Also wouldn't be too against it myself considering the circumstances if you can't get anywhere with the counter sue thing...

Fair's fair!

My mate ran into the back of someone, breaking their fog light. He paid for it out of his own pocket with promises of no insurance, they took the money and then went through insurance and whiplash claim anyway. Being naive he had no reciept of the cash paid.

So he let it go and took the insurance hit, but they needed a respray every 6 months or so for a good couple of years. Ain't karma a fooker :mrgreen:

"Compared to the old Nitromors this new formula is rubbish. It takes multiple coats to strip paint whereas it used to take only 1 or 2 with the old formula. I won't be buying this again."

Re: insurance advice regarding accident
 

Rubbish situation, i remeber seeing your thread about the accident when it happened. I have no idea on what would happen with regards to suing, never been in that situation. Hope all gets resolved, and as above you can always leave her a few presents if you end up being out of pocket.

Good luck Kiggles. I had a similar thing about a month ago with the car (petrol station, small swapping of paint with a POS transit at 2 mph. He is claiming for a new door and pillar.)

I think it has been suggested, but contact her telling her if she continues to try to claim against your insurance despite it being her fault you will counter sue her for your loss of NCB, loss of time in dealing with this, damage to your bike, but also look to prosecute her for insurance fraud.

At the moment for her it is a No Win No Fee type situation. Nothing bad will happen to her if she doesn't get an insurance pay out, so there is no downside to her for trying. If however, she will potentially be taken to court for damages and possible criminal court, it might make her think twice. I wouldn't contact her with this straight away, but initially with the more softly softly trying to guilt her. If she is a cnut about it at all then calmly threaten her with suing and prosecution.
