Excellent news, well done. :10: And yep, as you've found out, it's always worth haggling/challenging an insurance company over their first settlement proposal, because that will always just be the cheapest, simplest option for them.

It's annoying when your insurance company seems to be fighting in the other company's corner :roll: :lol:
