Fraudulent Insurance Claim...?
saintscottofthenortham replied to saintscottofthenortham's topic in Motoring Forum
Thanks for your reply. Very helpful. I had a very good look, I got my torches out of the car and lot the front up, and where my car would have come into contact with his there was no damage at all, yet he is claiming I have pushed lights out of place. Meh... I'll just have to wait and see what sort of qoute he comes back with. Ta -
Fraudulent Insurance Claim...?

Spoken to City College and because it is private land the CCTV will only be made available under the request of police. So up to the lad if he wants to take it that far. -
Fraudulent Insurance Claim...?

Cheers for the feedback. Have asked to see the footage, denied under Data Protection Act and told that it would only be made available if the police were to become involved. As it stands he is getting qoutes for the cost of repair, guess that's when I find out if he is out to rip me off. -
Fraudulent Insurance Claim...?

Hmmm... I'm fuming. I would hold my hands clean up if I thought I was in the wrong but I just can't accept it. Just cautious of him going insurance route and having my no claims dashed. -
Fraudulent Insurance Claim...?

He is using the fact that it's on CCTV as his main threat. -
Last night, pulled into City College, reversed into a parking bay and before I have fully entered the bay I have gone (very slowly) bumper to bumper with a car. The owner (security guard for College) was watching the said car on CCTV and instantly out claiming I have damaged the car. I had to take photo's because to me there was no relevant damage and his car was a good foot plus into my parking space. He says that is totally acceptable and j should have been aware that he was there. He is now claiming the bumper and lights are all off set and need replacing. I am far from happy and feel like I have been set right up. Thing is... Does the fact that he was so far into my space have any relevance or am I f*cked?

Are people still waiting for Pompey ticket email?

This does worry me and wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. -
Hampshire Constabulary FAQ; Operation Delphin Portsmouth v Southampton football match Sunday, December 18, 2011 Frequently Asked Questions * Together with the football clubs, we will keep supporters informed of all the latest news and information on travel and transport ahead of the Portsmouth v Southampton match on Sunday, December 18, 2011. To ensure the safety of all those attending, all away fans will be required to travel to Fratton Park by coach for this fixture and the return fixture in April 2012. Full details of transport arrangements are available from the clubs and will be sent out on a leaflet accompanying the tickets when you receive them. On this page you will find answers to questions you may have relating to these arrangements, which we hope you will find useful and will keep you well informed ahead of this great sporting fixture. Q. Do all Saints fans have to travel by coach? A: Yes, it is a condition of sale of the ticket. The only exemption from these arrangements is for people with disabilities, who should contact their club to make arrangements as per usual games. Q: Even if I’m coming from the other side of Portsmouth/Isle of Wight/out of county, do I still have to go to the coach pick-up points to travel to Fratton Park? A: Yes, you do. All away supporters, with the exception detailed above, must travel by coach from one of the designated coach pick-up points at St Mary’s Stadium, Bursledon Park & Ride or Winchester City Centre (by the statue of the ‘man on the horse’). Q: I like to enjoy a drink at the match. Will there be drink at the ground? Can I bring it with me? A: No, I’m afraid you can’t. The logistics of Fratton Park are such that there are no bars at the away supporters end, but there will be plenty of access to soft drink, hot drinks and fast food concessions. It is illegal to carry or consume alcohol on a coach to a designated football match. This is prohibited under the terms of the Football Spectators Act 1989. Q: Under what legislation are you enforcing these conditions? A: The clubs can impose any reasonable conditions of entry – fans purchasing tickets are always subject to conditions of entry, and the travel conditions for the derby matches are one of them. We have a common law duty to protect the public. If there is an assessed risk of disorder or risk to public safety, then the police have a duty to put in place appropriate measures and safeguards to prevent a breach of the peace and protect the public. Q: Is there not a basic human right to freedom of movement? A: There is, but it can be restricted where it is assessed that there is a risk to others or likely to be a breach of the peace. This assessment has to be based on intelligence and/or a history that suggests that this is likely. Unfortunately, previous derby matches show that this is the case. These measures are proportionate and the least intrusive viable option. Fans do have a choice – they can choose whether to attend and accept the travel conditions, or choose not to attend. These conditions balance of the rights and freedoms of football fans against the wider rights of all fans, stewards, police and non-football attending public to not be exposed to the vile behaviour and violence that has blighted previous derbies. Q: Are you setting a precedent for all other matches? A: No. This local derby currently presents our only significant risk of serious disorder. We will review the success – or otherwise – of this tactic and its continued appropriateness on a match-by-match basis. This is purely about the safety of fans, stewards, police and the public, and is a proportionate measure to deny opportunity to the few intent on causing and generating disorder. Q: Do these travel conditions apply to the return fixture at St Mary’s next April? Yes, the same conditions of entry will apply, and all away fans will have to travel by designated coaches. Q: Surely, by doing this, you’re still not stopping all of those intent on causing trouble from travelling to the ground? People can still go and cause trouble, can’t they? A: No, but what it does allow us to do is to focus our resources on protecting the convoy and create a sterile area to negate the risk of opposing fans being able to get at each other. We will have extra officers, football intelligence officers and spotters specifically tasked with disrupting any such individual who may still come to Portsmouth to try and cause trouble. By having this sterile area and escorted coach travel, we are providing the least intrusive restriction which allows away fans to safely enter and exit the ground. Instead of spreading our resources thinly across the city to try and pick up groups coming in from all over the place, we can actually concentrate our officers on dealing with and safeguarding football fans and public alike in one place. Q: Could you not just employ a hold-back like you have at other games? A: Hold-backs are far more intrusive and restrictive on freedom of movement, you have no choice as to whether you adhere to them or not. With the coach travel option, you are still able to make an informed choice to attend or not. Hold-backs have not always been successful, there have been some historic failures – notably in 2004 at Fratton Park where large numbers used the holdback area as a place to gather and try to attack away fans. The disorder in 2010 outside St Mary’s Stadium did not occur because Portsmouth fans were let out in to the north car park. It occurred because a number of fans tried to breach the sterile area in Britannia Road to get to the Pompey fans. Q: If people refuse to go home from the game on the coaches, will they be arrested? A: The away supporters exiting the ground will be expected to get on the coaches, as per the conditions of their match ticket. If there are specific individual reasons why a person cannot go on a coach, then those will be considered on a case-by-case basis. If you have a specific reason why you cannot travel home by coach, there will be a clearly defined supervisor within the sterile area inside the ground who you can speak to, and that officer will be assess the essential nature of the request on a case-by-case basis.* These travel arrangements are about safety of both the away supporters and home supporters, to avoid them coming into contact with those intent on causing disorder. Anyone deliberately intent on breaking the sterile area to engage in disorder will be arrested.
