Default What a flamin cheek



Angry of Shrewsbury writes...

I've just had a call from some claims management company. It took me a while to work out what the bloke was talking about (strong Scottish accent, sounded very foreign to my delicate English ear) but it goes like this.

Wifey bought a Clio a few months ago, and filled in an insurance proposal form on confused.com. Had to disclose that she reversed into our IT consultant's car in July 2005 - it was parked across the driveway and she didn't see it. Her fault, this was a open and shut case, but it was on my policy so he calls and asks for me. Seems someone is selling this info to a claims chaser who then call to see if they can sort the personal injury claim. What personal injury claim!!! Nobody was hurt, it was all of 3 miles an hour!!!

I am furious. I will have to check the small print but this is such an abuse

I had a similar phone call from India a few weeks ago. I couldn't understand a word she was saying and she quickly hung up when she realised that she wasn't getting anywhere.

So how can we find out where the managers of these firms live? So we can terrorise them mercilessly with offers of double glazing and cheap mobile phones.
