Our Response to the Insulting Reply to Our Complaint
You may have already read the complaint response from the Group Chief Executive and my reactions in my following post. This took me four days to write and I’m really happy with the result. I think it captures much of what the NFU Mutual tried to overlook or cover up in their reply to my complaint. It also addresses the fabrications they are still insisting are true so that they can reduce the amount they pay us. So, here it is. You may want to go and get a cuppa – it’s a long one: Dear Mr Sinclair We write in response to your letter dated 17 February 2021, in…

Apology and Compensation: What Would You Do?

We could have insisted that they carry out the repairs. We could have asked that we choose the builders to do the repairs and the NFU Mutual pay them. But when we were given the option of a cash settlement, this appeared to be the least stressful way to return…

Ten Lies The NFU Mutual Told Us
When we started our claim way back in November 2017, I didn’t know how things worked. I believed that the NFU Mutual was the insurance company, the loss adjuster was the loss adjuster, the surveyor was the surveyor, and so on. So, when I approached the NFU Mutual about the actions of their surveyor and expected them to undertake an investigation into his conduct, it was a huge surprise that nothing happened. When I asked for the umpteenth time for him to be removed, they did nothing. It wasn’t until much later that I realised I was trying to separate something which was whole, it was inseparable. Everyone appointed by…
