How to make a claim
Whether you have a specialist vehicle insurance, home insurance or any other policy with us, we’re here to support you through the claims process – if you ever need to make one.
In the first instance, you should contact the insurer. Many insurers offer a 24-hour claims line that you can contact, which you can find on your policy documents.
If you don’t have your insurer’s details to hand or can’t get through to them, you can contact us and we’ll aim to get your claim started as quickly as possible.
You can reach us on Monday to Friday 8:30am to 5:30pm and on Saturdays 9:00am to 1:00pm.

In most cases, if you have asked the garage to repair your car following an insurance claim, then you would pay the excess to the garage.
Make sure you get a receipt for the payment as insurers will want to see proof of payment in the event you need to reclaim your excess. If you are at all unsure, contact your insurer when you put the car in for repair.
Most people know that failing to stop after an accident is an offence. The rules are less clear about reporting accidents to the police.
In the main, you should always report an accident to the police if:
- Someone is injured in the incident (you should call 999 in this instance)
- An animal is injured
- Someone else’s property is damaged
- A bollard, streetlamp, or other item of street furniture or the road surface is damaged
