Default Re: Injury Claim

OK I'll put this on here just as a reference point, most of it is documented here anyway - Joined the T bone club or something similar.
I was clipped / hit by a car - broke my foot - and have scaring after they had to put a cast over the cut.
Not horrendous but it's there - I couldn't care less.


After a lot of hassle I finally had a pay out - mainly due to the woman changing her mind about who's fault it was. And her insurance not wanting to pay out once they realised she broke my foot.
My insurance dealt with it - they weren't great - which is why I won't use Bennett's again.
They offered more when they found out I actually had the scar - even sending me off for an examination by their doctor.
Due to the break, and scar I was offered 5K. Which I took as I thought it was more than fair.
So did my wife - she spent it on a wood burner and getting the fireplace altered!


Depending on what they offered you if it's fair take it - if it's a **** take don't.
Mine ached for ages afterwards, not a **** me kind of ache but a dull ache.
It's fine now - or I've just got used to it. Good Luck.
