I got burned using a thermal wrap -claim adjuster from the manufacturer's insurance company wants to know what amount was I looking for ( I assume with regards to pain and suffering) --burn area was not huge but uncomfortable and pained for 2 weeks, was infected and had to take antibiotics, compounded a knee condition I had previously, and left a scar. In addition, when I went to report this to the company got ran around in a circle - people there had the incorrect procedures- I had to actually teach a store employee how to report it per the insurance company telling me the correct way, they have taken months to contact me and I get 1 return phone call for every 10 calls I make to check on the status. I don't think of this as a lottery ticket but I was injured, did have a good deal of pain for about 2 weeks, and am annoyed at the shabby response of all involved. What's fair and how do you figure it ? How does a casualy adjuster come up with a number?
