Irons - Toddlers - Carpet - Ahhhh

[Guest guest]

[sue] Oh dear.

Try contacting the company that you bought the carpet from - you might

be able to get just that patch changed and they'll heatseal/stitch it

in so you don't have a mark there forever. Shouldn't be expensive,

esp if they have a remnant - might even cost you less than your excess

would have. We had the entire flat in London carpeted in the same

stuff and had the pieces for each room sealed together so we didn't

have to have those brass/steel bars which we loathe.

Oh yes that's a jolly good Idea, I've contacted the firm who put in the carpet

and they are going to send a man around to have a look and see what they can do.

Oh I do love this group you all have such good ideas.

:-))))

It was the last thing I was working on before I left but it was

actually enormously hard to do because the wordings have to be legally

watertight because however you word something, someone will always

launch a test case to " prove " that it was covered (and I mean

ridiculous things not the " normal " claims that you set your policies

up to cover). We had someone who put all their possessions on the

roof rack (no top box just suitcases with a bungy clip) the night

before going on holiday and left the car in the drive. We thought

that was pretty careless really when he claimed for the lot that

surprise surprise had been nicked overnight but the policy wording

didn't allow for us to refuse it. I used to get really cross when

people accused me of trying to interpret policies to refuse claims, it

was the bordering on fraud or rank stupidity ones that we were trying

to avoid because at the end of the day its the policyholders who end

up paying more for their insurance. Having said that I've come

across companies with a pretty dodgy attitude to claim paying so I'm

not saying the industry doesn't deserve its reputation
