What do I do? - BlueDturbo
OK, the thing is I went to Spain for a week. Parked my Pug in Ibis Gatwick, taking advantage of their night in a hotel and a weeks parking. Got back to UK, found out that my G/f's mum was at deaths door and got back to London with all haste. Now I've discovered that the rear bumber on the near side has been subject to heat damage, possibly from a coach/lorry exhaust. It is basically starting to sag, ie it got v warm. I left the premises without checking for minor damage...ie it had four wheels, all windows and wasn't graffitied up (is that a word?) Anyway some advice would be good, thanks guys

Call the hotel and ask them if they know of any possible cause.

Ask them if the area is covered by s security camera, and if so could they save the tape.

If they aren't already aware of it, and the area isn't under camera view, then go and buy s new bumper. Its probably not worth a claim on your own insurance.

Sorry to hear of your troubles.

The idea of looking at a video tape is good but the hotel is likely to have a notice up somewhere saying they are not liable for any damage so they probably won't help you.
