Default Re: Bennetts motorcycle insurance

I used Bennetts when I first got the Blandit that is was knock off 6 days later. The only issue with Bennetts was they did not permit modifications to the bike.

My real issues were with the insurer ERS, whilst they were prompt in their dealings with me, it was a battle of attrition, the bike was write off, I had paid a bargain £1900 6 days earlier and they offered £1300. When I quired the value, the silly girl said it was the Glasses valuation, really I have a copy in front of me and cannot find it. She then conceded that their assessor must have got it wrong, and revalued it at £1600 and I eventually settled at £2400.

They also argued about my uninsured losses particularly that I wanted full price on a 6 day old helmet, boots, jacket etc.

So Bennetts eventually send me my renewal at the end of the first year. No NCB despite my claim being no fault. I phone them and the girls says I will talk to the underwriter and phone you back. Oh yeah

She did, result renewal was reduced by 40%. but why had they not spotted it themselves.
