Post by: Gorgeous_bird on November 12, 2010, 13:46:29 PM: When you call an insurance company and tell them that a tree has fallen and landed on your house - would you:-

A Expect them to deal with this as a priority
B Expect them to tell you that they will be out by the middle of next week to assess the damage

So we are making our own arrangements to get said tree removed and hopefully a tree surgeon will call us back today to let us know he has a crew and they are coming to remove it. How very disappointing Direct Line.

Post by: stoop on November 12, 2010, 16:19:38 PM: Very bad service GB. At least they could have said get it sorted and we will call out to assess the damage next week. Make sure you take plenty of pictures for evidence.

Post by: Highlander on November 12, 2010, 17:48:45 PM: Ridiculous GB :o.

Surely if you left it, you would be exposing your property to more damage which the insurance company would have to pay for. Madness:(
