Keep things in perspective
« on: 30 October 2010, 10:41:20 »
This week have started on an issue to help an army family. Young guy stood on mine in Afghanistan - lost an eye and lots of other damage I will not go into to upset your weekend.

Now battling with insurance policies sold to him in full knowledge he was a soldier - this is separate to the army welfare situation but will be watching these proposals carefully also.

He has been in hospital for a very long time and may lose sight of other eye.

We all think we have problems.

if he's having trouble with insurance, he should speak to his local MP, also write to the ombudsman (ask the insurer for the details, they have to provide them and they'll take the hint that he's serious) plus Watchdog, Daily Mail, the Sun, etc love stories about injustice to troops in short, make it cheaper and less painful for the company to cough up  :y

www.Consumeractiongroup.co.uk might be a good place to ask for help/advice - there are some  people on there who are VERY clued-up about making complaints.
