Got a big crack in the screen and needed it fixing before the big trip. Went to my local place, Spire Windscreens and spoke to them. Sure. 80, Blue top tint, can get one day after tomorrow, we'll come and fit it on your drive. See you then, oh just give us your insurance details.
Ooops sorry can't do it, they will only deal with AW as they own them. Shame.
So I ring my insurers who put me through to AW. No I said, I want to speak to the insurer to clarify the glass cover. Two calls later I'm not really much wiser but they have confirmed that it has to be AW.
So they take my details, policy, make, model and year yadda yadda and tell me it will be the best part of three weeks, but I have to pay now. Hmm. So I waited in yesterday finally ringing them after lunch to see if they were still coming. Yes they said, around five ish.
16.30 I get a call from the fitter, he knows where I am as he only live half a mile away. Sorted.
So he comes up the drive shaking his head. Sorry mate, there's no way that they've sent the right screen, this is an 80 right?
I just knew this wasn't going to go right. You get hat feeling sometimes
He tells me that it'll only take him 20 mins as it's not bonded (I know) and it's all in good repair all he needs is a screen.
So now I have to start all over again, but I have told them that I'm away from next week and out all of this week. They'd better not f*** this up.
Shall I bother crossing my fingers?
