In March I had been rear ended about the highway in Atlanta, Ga. I had been moving through during traffic on my method to visit relatives. I reside in Charleston, S.C. And have been on the highway for around four hours after I experienced rush-hour traffic in Atlanta. Traffic found an entire end and that I needed to quit rapidly. After visiting an entire end I had been struck in the back with a Ford Adventure touring at approximately 45mph. The driver was covered by Farm Bureau of Georgia. The driver of the Ford Tour was positioned and we changed info. I approached my insurance provider (Geico) and he approached his. Our 2000 Toyota 4 runner was killed within the rear creating body harm and total devastation of the trunk tailgate/pull body and undercarriage, as well as buckling the best rear quarter-panel in to the wheel well. After which makes it back again to Charleston, I approached Farm Office plus they mentioned they had no practices for statements in Charleston which I had a need to have three estimates for fix by three distinct restoration services. I proceeded to possess this completed. After distributing the reviews, I had been not approached for 2 months, I named them many times and was directed the individual managing my state wasn't present. Lastly, I talked to 1 person who really examined and discovered the woman managing my state was on maternity leave. This put it at around three months. The guy which was overtaking my situation ensured to deal with it rapidly. I'd the 4 runner put into the center estimate store and waited. They'd to get hold of the insurance provider and suggest that the initial $6800 estimate wasn't adequate, simply because they had underestimated the degree of the harm to the body. They had a need to deliver the vehicle to some 3rd party that specific in body straightening. The total amount risen to around. $9k. Following a couple more months within the store, I eventually get my vehicle back. Whole time for automobile repair 6 months. Today for that great component, keep in mind that I've had some back issues with discomfort and complications, virtually non stop because the incident. I'd observed an orthopedic doctor and had been handled with a Chiropractor for soft-tissue injury and spinal modification. I had been in therapy for around six months. During this period, I settled a few of the appointments outofpocket and also the remainder were placed on a bill for Farm Business to pay for. They'venot settled a cent. Our whole price was $2500 for medical costs. I dropped $7000 in price for my reduced 2000 4 runner. (I exchanged it in after setting it up back since I understood the repairs might never be as comprehensive as will become necessary. I advised the car organization that I exchanged the automobile in and they also might just provide me 10k about the trade in in the place of the approximately. 17k the vehicle was worth). Today it's been almost 2 yrs and that I still have not noticed a cent. I'd to acquire a lawyer to actually get Farm Business to match. They've recently provided me $4500 for anything. Following the attorneys consider their slice and also the medical expenses are compensated, I'm quit with almost nothing. Meaning I get nothing for discomfort, complications, disappointment and also to top everything off... They'd a claims service-center not really 3-kilometers from my home. It'd been there the entire period! Our suggestion would be to never cope with some company that's this sort of integrity. This is actually the same kind of organization that will short anyone to pad their profit profit.
