Sorry to hear about the accident Andy. 
Had the same thing happen twice in 3 weeks to the missus' Civic
unless you genuinely have an injury, please do not make a compensation claim. it's the scumbags who do, that make our insurance premiums so bloody high

Well i have spent all day on the phone to churchill trying to sort a hire car and to make them proceed with my claim
They told me they wouldnt be appointing a solicitor as i dont have legal protection so i have to sort it all myself
I was 110% convinced i took out legal protection so i ripped the house apart to find my docs, i found my insurance scedule and there we have it, i do have legal protection for upto 50 grand so then i had to fax them a copy of my scedule as proof. just waiting to hear back off them, just a shame everything take fookin ages

Gutted for you mate, stupid f*ckin women drivers, some of them are not safe enough to be let loose on the public roads 
And as for trying to sort your insurance out The amount we pay them it should be a dodle to get a pay out or hire cars etc
I had a women pull infront of me on monday afternoon, clear day and she just pulled out, if i carried on at the speed i was doing then id have wiped her out

Effectively, Helphire is a hire car company, so we make our money by hiring cars and other vehicles from our fleet. The difference is, we hire the car to you but pass the bill to the insurance company of the driver to blame, at hire rates agreed with the UK's leading insurance companies.
