My head certainly isn't about to fall over, but i have woken up this morning with a stiffiesh neck and slight pain at the top of my back.

Now, had I not of been in the accident yesterday, then I wouldnt go to the doctors or anything, but seens as I was, should I go anyway just so that it is on file that I have?

Im not one that try's to rinse the system or anything, but if others do then why shouldnt I?!


Anyone been thru the same process?

[concept]

Do you have any morals?

[Ian101]

speak to bob plumb he just went thru all this but i would delete your first post asap

[PoleKing]

Go, just get it noted.
If it comes to nothing, do nothing.
If it does come to something then you've got it recorded.

AS IN OTHERS HAVE GENUINE WHIPLASH, AND IM IN THE SAME SITUATION!


It takes alot to get me to the doctors on the whole.

Im not lying about anything am I you (modded)

Go up the hospital if you're in pain after an accident. If you don't there's no claim.

I'm led to believe it's not what others do or don't do that's important, but what I do or don't do that really matters.

Someone ran into the back of my car a few years back, we could've done the whiplash thing, but we didn't.  Why?  Because we didn't have whiplash and really, could we be bothered with all the extra hassle for a few quid?

Agreed. Not saying you don't ache (I have had it and it does sting) but is it worth the hassle? Hassle it is too. Mind you I did get 2k for it in the nineties  lot of money then!

Where did I accuse you of lying?

A slight pain is what you stated, I have a slight pain if I sleep in the wrong position.

Why do you feel the need to make a personal attack when asked a genuine question if you believe it is morally right to pursue compensation for a "slight pain"?

We all wonder why insurance prices are so high...

[Ian101]

if u had hit them they would be talking to a solicitor by now for compensation so you need to claim everything u can legitimately ........... if u cant pay your bills thru not working due to the moron who hit you do you think they will be bothered ? .......... prob not as thats what insurance is for

apologies for suggesting u take post down ... just the less the other side knows the better ... having just gone thru a blogsy personal injury claim off a customer the less said in public the better.

 not saying urs is a blogsy claim ... looking at photos u can see its very much genuine ... good luck with it all

Why is the person involved in the accident automatically a moron?

This belief of "everyone else does it or would do it, so should I" is simply mind boggling.

Have you ever complained your insurance is too high? Bet you have, we all do. It's a direct result of the number of claims for non-serious injuries such as whiplash.

It's a very easy option for some quick money, which, in my opinion, is for those with questionable ethics.

Dust yourself off, get out and earn some money, honest money, for hard work.

[concept]

My points are based around the OP's statement of having only a "slight pain".

If there were serious injuries, where work could not be continued, different story.

Of course, loss of income should be covered due to the fact his van is off the road.

[Positivity]

You'll probably give in eventually after the dozens and dozens of phone calls you're going to get from the Ambulance chasers.
I had an accident in May 2012 and I am still getting calls encouraging me to claim.
Common thread is "The compensation is set aside and waiting for you to claim it - if you don't claim it - it will just go back to the insurance co."

[Richard60]

if i had neck pain due to crash id claim .
if i didnt have pain i would not claim ..
same as tosh i was ran into damage to car was paid by other person so i left it at that

[rah]

Don't use your insurance company, speak to my daughter

[deeege]

OP, through no fault of your own you have been hit by a vehicle which has caused you physical injury, which may or may not keep you from earning a living. (Also bare in mind that it will probably take a few more days for the affected muscles to settle down so your neck/shoulder/back may be fine now but not so in a few days)

Regardless of if you feel you should be compensated or not I would be making an appointment to see your doctor to get checked over.

In a months time you will know how much the shunt will have affected your health and bank balance and will be able to pursue a claim for damages if you feel it's deserved.

You really shouldn't have the mindset that X person would claim so that means it's ok for me to claim too, that attitude will end up with this country being as bad as the blame culture in the USA and that's not somewhere we want to be heading.

I hope your injuries are not too bad though, back problems are no fun.

[Arnold Palmer]

Is there anything wrong with you? Are you out cleaning windows? If so my guess is (I'm no doctor mind) there isn't.

Yea sue the evil, back destroying SOB! You were 'a bit stiffiesh' this morning, don't let them get away with tearing your life apart like this.

Where there is blame there is a claim!

In the meantime:



This'll help!
