    We are so happy to be home but scared stiff the waters will run off the hills again! Some of our neighbours are still in caravans and the older ones have given up hope of getting back in to their homes because no rebuilding work as started. The insurance companies are disgusting in the way they employ Loss Adjusters who cause delays in payments to us customers.
    I am thinking of starting a campaign to stop this practice as they more or less saying we are thieves and liars! I have lost 3 grand because they refused to accept my written claims and quotations. :mad:

    [​IMG] Don't really know about these things Pal, but that sounds as good a place to start as any. [​IMG] Are there any watch dog organisations you could contact too?? [​IMG]

    I'll have to look into it,it appears that others in the Avenue were treated the same by the Glasgow company who were sub-contracted in due to the demand on the underwriters.

    Now for some GOOD news by way of a change :D

    Not only was my opinion sought on the choice of my daughters Wedding dress no less! [​IMG]
    But she just told me she will be having this played during the ceremony!!

    I would be biased of course because it belongs to Portugal. [​IMG]

    In saying that, I've never been there as t'other won't fly. :( But I am going to a fantastic castle on the Central West Coast of Portugal for my special occasion this year. [​IMG]
