the car saga
My stolen car saga. About three weeks ago my stolen car turned up dumped about half a mile from my house. It didn't seem damaged - not even the steering lock - except for some scratches on the windows.
So the car doesn't belong to me - but to the insurance company - so can I pay you back the money and get my friendly mechanic to have a look at the car - NO! - and by the way I did not leave my keys in the car - as I would not have been able to get in my house - and I would have sort of remembered sleeping in the garden.
So I can't pick it - they - First Direct - will pick it up within an hour - except - their computer system was down and they couldn't accept my call - then however was dealing with the claim forgot to tell the recovery company - and then their computer system was down - and all in all the one hour pick up took five days to achieve. Twice I had to explain - no - I did not leave my keys in the car - as my house keys were on the keyring - and I would not have been able to get into my house - and - NO! - I can't make things easier by getting the local garage towing the car to my drive - in front of my house.
Can I pay the cheque back and get the car - NO! - it has to be seen by their engineers. Numerous phone calls - no one knows what's happening. A week later the engineering company phones up - why have they - the insurance company sent the car to them - there's no problem with the car - its not damaged - and no I did not leave the fucking keys in the car - and I do not know how the thieves did it - as I am not a fucking car thief - and I don't know any real criminals - except Jim - and getting drunk and obnoxious is not exactly Mafia.
Yesterday I made at least 9 calls to Direct Line - I can only buy the car at auction - or - yes I can pay all the money back - and then its not a claim - or - I can pay Direct Line - a fee - but they need to talk to an engineer - to get the value - yes we will call you back - and did you leave the key in the car? No - No - No - well how come we haven't got the keys - you have I sent them all with every bit of paper I possessed that had the car registration on it - erm - oh yes that's right - we'll phone you.
Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
