craggsy 91 Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 MARC in Melton Mowbray have had a few people saying they are good.MARC stands for Melton Accident Repair Centre.As for other place it might be a case of leaving it with solicitor or going down to the garage and telling them you want you money back then passing it onto your solicitor Link to post Share on other sites
