Making a claim

Step 1 of 3

Gather key claim information

You or your customer should aim to provide as much detail as possible regarding the incident; for example contact details for any other involved parties, witnesses, photos, diagrams, videos and the position of any CCTV cameras. 

Step 2 of 3

Report the claim

As soon as you and your customer have the relevant information please report the claim as soon as possible. The earlier we're made aware of an incident, the sooner we can act to keep costs down and reduce the chances of a fraudulent claim being made. 

Step 3 of 3

Your claims contact

Once the claim has been reported to us, your claims contact will be there to guide you and your customer through the next steps of the claim process.
