3rd party admitted to crashing into my van in a car park. We exchanged details. Long story short, engineers claimed my vehicle had chassis damage when it did not, it was cosmetic only and categorised it as an S rather than N. I questioned this mistake as there was only some dents and scuffs. Engineer agreed they made a mistake. Passed details onto Somerset Bridge and they have point blank refused fo engage with Vizion and Nova, the engineers and garage who assessed my van. By saying there is damage when there is not, it not only increases 3rd party premiums and is unfair treatment to customer, it is fraud. 3rd party has made a complaint which still remains unresolved even with chasing emails. My van still remains damaged as SB will not change the report to the honest one. Disgusting treatment for both myself and the 3rd party customer. We are taking this to the financial ombudsman as this insurance company are awful. Accident occurred June 2025 and we're now in October. I still haven't recieved a correct category or a pay out when I'm entitled to "cash in lieu" for a category N that I am legally entitled to ask for. Staff ignore emails, don't solve problems and use incorrect documents to base their claims on. Their reply will be a fob off copy and pasted reply so be warned. I think I'll go to the newspapers and share my story because this can't be happening to just me. It needs to be solved asap. The 3rd party and myself aren't happy. Still ongoing!
