I’m meeting with the third party’s adjuster tomorrow morning to discuss my claim for non-Aviva covered expenses due to the accident. I already sent justifications\/evidence for things like lost income and supplemental medical coverage, but I didn’t have much to justify my $1,500 for the trip to Alberta to buy my new toad.<\/p>\n
So I took about an hour this morning to add up everything and get my receipts in order. My trip to Alberta cost me $1,600 in flights, hotels, taxis, buses, fuel, and food. My estimate was pretty good!<\/p>\n
One piece of good news was that I was never charged for the car rental I ended up not using! So I only lost the two nights at the hotel in Calgary, but that was made up by staying at Chez Life on Our Ark<\/em> in Stettler for two nights.<\/p>\n My breakdown for the trip had been:<\/p>\n $500 for fuel (actual: $596)<\/p>\n $300 for meals and incidentals (actual: $241, with this category including the bus and taxis)<\/p>\n $200 for the hotel (actual: $330 since I got a hotel in Sault Ste Marie)<\/p>\n $50 for a car (actual: $0)<\/p>\n So I have no problem justifying that claim. Now, I just have to get them to understand that buying a car in Quebec was not a viable option. The adjuster is a Quebecer so he does know a bit about how things work in Canada, which may help.<\/p>\n I will be so happy if I get that $2,700 that I am claiming. It’ll cover the toad conversion, meaning that I won’t have to save up anything this summer beyond my usual amount in preparation for departure and I just may be able to take a proper vacation in August. I shouldn’t be out this money and I really hope I don’t have to sue for it. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m meeting with the third party’s adjuster tomorrow morning to discuss my claim for non-Aviva covered expenses due to the accident.
