What he said. Helphire seem decent. I might be able to give you more idea if
you tell us what car it is and what year to give some idea of what it's
worth - generally assessors will try and give you less than the car's worth,
claim management companies generally get waved through with everything done
properly (ie, you drive a merc, you get a merc courtesy car, not a micra,
and you get a proper pay out) because they know it's not worth arguing with
them whereas they can with private punters. And the claim management company
gets their money off the bloke who bumped you anyway...
