OT; Recommendation for insurance company?

Question

This is slightly off topic, but I thought it a good place to ask. A drunk driver crashed into my car which was written off. I have been disappointed with the incompetence of my current insurance company in dealing with the claim, it's a long story but I had to take them to the small claims court to get some money off them which they owed me but wouldn't send. I will be looking for a new insurance company at renewal time, so I'm asking for recommendations from anybody who has had a claim recently and was happy with how it was sorted out, or anybody, like me, who has had poor service from their insurance company. Thanks in advance.

Geoff.

In news:g8QRc.230$    Geoff Jackson  decided to enlighten oursheltered souls with a rant as followsStrange, Liverpool Victoria were excellent in 2001 when I had two claimswith them. Absolutely superb in fact. The first claim was my own fault(flung my Integrale into a roundabout, then discovered said roundabout wascovered in Diesel... a short trip down an embankment and one deadIntegrale), and that was dealt with in a matter of about three weeks. Noproblem at all. Second was when some dozy bint in an accident courtesy carpulled out of a stop junction in front of my much beloved SD1 Vitesse andtotalled it. That was settled in about a month, admittedly I'd have likedthe Vitesse repaired, but they paid £1500 for it, and that was the value ofthe car at the time so I couldn't argue.

I had an excellent experience with Norwich Union Direct. My wife had nudged someone's car in a car park and they'd said it was only minor damage and they'd let us know. 3 months later there was an enormous bill left in my wife's pigeon hole. We hadn't reported it to NUD, but they were great and fixed it all for us. No lectures, no fuss. We took our car to their nominated bodyshop who took some digital photos and emailed them to NUD and got the go-ahead by return and our car was back to us in 3 days. Brilliant service!
