I used to be insured with famous... I had a couple of not-at fault accident, and the car ended up being write-off. But i got paid out quick. In fact, they rushed me to give them the required paperwork so they can send me the cheque quickly...
with the 1st accident, they didn't even have an inspection, they just use the photos provided by my smash repairer, and the claim was approved.
The 2nd time around, they had someone at my repairer to assess the car, and claimed it to be a write-off. I ended up paying $2200 to buy back the car and use the pay out money to repair the car. (mind u, my car was "quite" modified and none of the modifications were reported)
To some up, my experience with "famous" is quite good.
it must be a ass assesser u had, unfortunately...
just to share my experience..
anyway, good luck with the claim.
