Yes, but as a consumer, you probably still have wriggle room if the Ombudsman is invoked. It would be reasonable (specifically chosen word for legal purposes) to suggest that a car driver is not automatically qualified as a lawyer, and that they might not understand the specific import of a term like "without prejudice" or "final offer".
Either way, insurance companies are ****ed. Like banks, I despise them through and through.
