VIN or year, make, and model, plus mileage, ZIP, and the insurer's offer. About three minutes. You see an illustrated gap. It is not a guidebook value and it is not something you send an adjuster.

Total Loss Report Guarantee
Total Loss Report: If the additional payout you recover above the insurer's prior written settlement offer is less than $1,000 after submitting your Alden Total Loss Report and demand letter, we refund your full $300 report fee. The insurer's original offer does not count toward the $1,000 threshold.
Diminished Value Report Guarantee
Diminished Value Report: If the diminished-value payout you recover from the insurer for your vehicle's lost resale value is less than $1,000 after submitting your Alden Diminished Value Report and demand letter, we refund your full $300 report fee. Repair payments to the body shop are separate and do not count toward the $1,000 threshold.
Conditions: submit the Alden report and demand letter to the insurer, provide the insurer's written settlement response showing the final outcome, and request the refund within 180 days of delivery.
What the fee does not buy
It does not buy a lawyer, a promise that the insurer will pay, or a hands-on inspection of the car. The demand letter is yours: you sign it and send it in your own name, with your Alden Vehicle Report attached. Alden does not contact the insurer and is not appointed as an appraiser.
