How to claim
-
Before you call us, call the police to get a crime reference number if you're claiming for theft or vandalism – or you think dangerous driving, drink driving or an uninsured driver was to blame.
-
Call us with your policy number to hand if you want to make a claim, or if something happens that you could claim for – even if you decide not to.
-
We'll take all the details of why you're claiming and what happened – there are a few tips below on this for you. We may ask you to fill in a claim form if we need more details.
-
We'll give you your claim number for next time you want to get in touch about your claim.
-
If you're claiming for something that was your fault, we'll deal with it all there and then for you. So if your car needs repairs, we'll arrange them through one of our authorised repairers. And if you need a courtesy car, we'll get that sorted too.
-
If you're claiming for something that wasn't your fault, we'll pass you directly to the insurer who manages your policy for you. They'll take over from there.
-
We'll let you know about any excess you have to pay towards your claim.
