So I received my cheque today from the insurance company so I was quite chuffed with the thought of car hunting this weekend but I showed my dad and they had sneakily put above the cheque in small writing “Accept this cheque as full and final settlement of this claim”. He instantly pointed out that I should not cash that cheque because my claim was NOT in full and final settlement… because of my whiplash injury… which the insurance company is WELL aware of because my claim was being handled by their “Personal Injury” department.

The cheeky bastards thought I’d just happily cash the cheque and be on my merry way without compensation for my whiplash (which I very nearly did, if I hadn’t shown it to my dad). So let this be a warning to all people who get a cheque from an insurance company… read it!

Dirty bastards.
