Damn Im Happy - Claim was wrong PAGE 2

[Predator_R32]

I got a letter from my solicitor about my accident i hadat work

anyway i trapped my thumb in a machine at work, half my fault tbh but they never said go to hospital or anything and put a plaster on it lol, made me work all night i was in agony

went to hospital next day and they said you should of had stitches, so they put dumbells on as it already healed a bit and it wasnt within 6 hours of having the accident

my mate used to work for a claims company anyway and put the claim in, its took about a year and a few doctors visits but the outcome is 1250 for the injury and 168 for loss of earnings

with solicitors fees etc my final sum of money is £1168 so im very happy indeed :)

will come in handy for my tyres and wilwood 4 pots :)

haha! Was just jesting with you mate. I'd be chuffed tbh if someone threw over a grand at me! To a certain extent if it was work that made you continue working they are liable so fair play to you.

two of his fingers were cut through the tendons by a polish temp chef incorrectly carrying a knife and consequently they no longer are straight

[Clone]

Very nice, an extra 2k in anyones bank would be great.

[Mark51]

when people try to put a claim in at my work they seem to disapear very quick for some reason

[kenny]

im waiting on my claim from when i was punched etc and had my cheek fractured and my nose fractured. im being told it could be in the region of 4k or so as of the severity of the injuries :P

[Luke]

Spend it wisely mate, don't waste it on the car.

Talking of claims, lad from my work got beat up the other week, fractured eye socket and needed a metal plate in - anyways he had to have his head cut open from ear to ear which resulted in 51 stitches and one BIG SCAR.

The outcome £500 PER STITCH for compensation.

One rich boy for 20 years old.

[Barry123]

Spend it wisely mate, don't waste it on the car.

agreed. I wouldn't even say spend... save it wisely. you didnt miss the £2k before so why would you miss it now? let it get a bit of interest and put it towards something decent.

[Luke]

I have learnt from wasting money on cars, so take a lesson from me ;)

It's true though, never missed it so save it for that Evo you want ;)

[Amiee]

agree with luke n ads :P

If i got 2k id just put it in a high interest acc or isa, untill i did actually need it for something like a nice golf gti lol

[SaxoJamie]

[Predator_R32]

[Ben19]

Couple of years back i was in a crash while in a taxi, got 1700 for that. Company was well dodgy though they sent me to see a doctor and he asked me what pain i was in and i was 100% honest and said its just a small pain in my leg, he looked at me and said 'ah whiplash and nightmares....dont worry i get you good money'. Also got 100 for being attacked and having my phone stolen (but only recieved a fiver so far).
