I've been with Shannons for around 20 years with my MG's, when discussing policies even recently with my daily and newer (classic) acquisitions on occasions they may have initially appeared unreasonable, but found that after discussing the situations with the rep they did realise then and have been most reasonable.

Regarding the 12 day delay with the assessing, there's normally a story from both sides, but when I had a no fault claim a few years ago with my daily they assessed it the next day and gave the go ahead straight away. No problems whatsoever.
