Diary entry 23/05/2013 An Insurance Brokers Lot.

Good afternoon all, today is a fine example as to the daily diversity that happens during a working week.

Left home at 07.45 a.m.
Arrive work 08.20 a.m.

Following meetings yesterday first job is to get 5 emails drafted and sent to Claims departments to help client in recoveries against Third Parties. Claims departments vary in their assistance in dealing with claims some are very helpful and try to get the thing sorted and the client back on the road as soon as possible others do all they can to be awkward requiring all manner of details and have no regards to the client and his need to keep mobile and / or carry out his business. We are trying to put the client into a similar position as they were prior to claim but this can prove very tricky when negotiating with the claims departments. It is also true to say that clients need a realistic view also having to compromise on occasions to reach a conclusion. Fairness is a key word.

I do have to agree with clients that some Insurers cave in far to quickly in respect of paying out for injuries or damages to propety and a more robust defence or investigation would yield a good return on investment for Insurers. I do however understand that they constrained by the Law on many issues.
 
Next out to further meeting regards to collecting a renewal payment for a Catering Business then a Fleet enquiry and on site visit.

Back to office make some calls deal with some further issues , emails, more renewals and then retreat to a dark room and relaaaaaaaax.

How about a couple of jokes to cheer us all up:

What does a Lion have for breakfast? - Cheetabix
What does a vampire have for breakfast? - Readyneck

If the weather holds off tonight I may well treat myself by cutting the grass, what a glamorous life I live. If I do cut the grass I may well have to put on my thermals.
