  1. Hello everyone, Awhile back I posted a note that UPS had
    dented my frame in shipping. It costs $600.00 for a new
    frame. They still have not paid on the insurance claim. The
    mail and more shop that originally shipped the bike said
    they are still contacting them about it and raising hell.
    However I question his sincerity. Any one have any
    suggestions on how to get this claim fixed? I tried writing
    the BBB and they said that this is not there area. Thanks
    for any input.. Joe

  2. Threaten legal action (small claims court) if you have all
    the paperwork, pictures and proof of insurance. You'll get
    paid. I think it is standard practice for them to deny
    claims until severe consequences are indicated.

    Keep persuing them on the issue, call every single day
    and annoy the living hell out of them. Make note of all
    the people you spoke to and dates and times. Have them
    all put notes in their system regarding your
    issue/problem. It usually takes them a while to pay out,
    but they eventually do.

    Definately. Send them a nice letter from your solicitor.

    Insurance companys will keep you going in circles like this
    in hopes that you will eventually give up. Carla gave some
    good advise. Stay on top of it.

  6. Thanks for the input.

    I will keep bugging them.. In work on legal action
    hate mail.

    In a similar incident on the UK cycling NG the poster
    casually referred to the Company name, the name of the guy
    in despatch, the name of the shipping Company and the name
    of the admin guy who was taking so long to clear the matter.

    He later posted he'd got a refund plus apology plus
    compensation plus the replacement frame. At no time had he
    asked anyone to email or send letters to the named people or
    their MD's. Mike
