What is a "minor fault claim"?

Ah gotcha.
I thought I had one a couple of years back, on the A1, just South of Washington services.
I was towing our caravan (with Audi A4), traffic was being moved over to the outside lane by the police due to a previous accident in the inside lane. Traffic was understandably crawling at about 10mph, I looked behind and saw the VW Touran following about 60m back. Indicated, left it a few seconds, then pulled out. Got rear ended on the caravan rear offside quarter by the Touran.
Incredulously I pulled over to the hard shoulder, he followed eventually. Didn't get out, he was consoling 2 crying daughters on the back seat, crying due to the accident he said. To rear end me at that speed/distance I maintain they must have been already crying already and he was looking behind him.
He says I cut him up, had previous declared damage to his car and took ages to come up with his insurance details, with many a c**k and bull story along the way.
Anyway, our car wasn't involved, just the caravan. But our insurer, LV, took his side of the story, didn't want to see diagram or photos and blamed me.
Suffice to say, we cancelled with LV. Wife had been with them for years, but you only find out how good/bad a company is when there's a claim.
LV are seriously BAD.
