That doesn't sound right, but I'm wondering if I should even bother if the delay was 10 months ago. Thanks!
Make sure you sever all links permanently with the agency before you push on, as this can become a mine field!

I have seen a few cases where the agency or claims company will attempt to obtain 'their' percentage once you win your case.
