My thoughts exactly:flame:

Sounds to me as though they have a buyer lined up for your bike. I've heard before of cars and bikes being classed as right offs and sold when they actually have very little damage.

This shouldn't surprise me really. I think there is something seriously dodgy going on with a lot of these 'storage' facilities for crashed vehicles. One local to me charges 15 quid a day for storage and it seems that pretty much any vehicle involved in a prang in the Oxford area gets instructed by the police on the scene to be collected by this company, to the extent that a friend of mine had her car collected after an accident when it wasn't even in the way. She ended up in hospital for a number of days and was unable to do anything about the rapidly growing bill.

I wonder if the police xmas ball fund gets well supported by said company......?

Not to sure if it benefits the xmass ball fund :lol: personally i think its just a case of immediate clearing of the scene so the police dont end up hanging around for 2 hours waiting for someone to turn up , unfortunately the recovery people see it as a licence to print money , my bill works out at £145 for recovery , £85 because they had to crane it (load of b*ll*cks , it was moved to the side of the road by a member of the public with no trouble) and their charging £14.50 a day storage all plus VAT :mad:

Tossers.:flame:

:saint:They'll say the crane was involved because of 'Health and Safety':saint:

:mad::mad::mad: utter *******s. you need legal advice. just out to screw you , take care.:mad::mad::mad::mad:

Quick update : After a relaxing holiday i get back to find that the bike is still at the recovery yard , a quick call to the insurance company confirms my worse fear , uneconomical to repair so a write off .

I have to wonder if what must by now amount to nearly £600 salvage and storage fee,s have something to do with that :flame:

Just have to see what they offer and maybe consider buying the bike back if its offered cheap enough .
