Shock! My stolen bike has turned up after 4 years!

Postby steve sharp » Fri Jul 04, 2014 12:32 pm

Hi,

I'm in shock!

I received a letter today asking me for removal / storage costs for my old bike which was stolen 4 years ago!

It was found in Preston on 2/7/2014.

I left it in the hands of the garage to talk to the insurance company...

Make sure you buy it back ! And sell it to me or I'll pay costs if you don't want it...

For Dave...it was stolen 4 years ago and its been found!

Yes I'm quite amazed it wasn't ridden into the ground and killed long before now.

Kirk, I got paid out by insurance company 4 years ago, its up in Preston and I have no idea what condition its in, plus its now 14 years old, so don't want any hassle buying it back. Plus as its 4 years ago, I doubt they would offer it to me..

Be nice to hear that they got nicked, but I doubt it.. Sounds like we need a new thread like our injuries thread... stolen & found.. or more like stolen..

If your property is in the care of an organisation and they lose it, I'm sure you can claim compensation.
