Dedicated to your clients at claim time.

We are committed to guiding and supporting your clients when they need it most.

We know that no two claims are alike and that making a claim can be an unfamiliar experience at a challenging time. That’s why our dedicated claims consultants are committed to offering your clients guidance and support to make the claims process as smooth as possible.

Our Claims Approach

With your clients claim, these are the five key ways we aim to support them:

Claiming with confidence

Your client will have one point of contact within our dedicated Claims Team.

We will support them through their claim, discuss the options available to them, and make sure they know how and when their claim will be assessed.

Ensuring your client is understood

Your clients unique story is important to us.

Our aim is for your client to feel heard, to ensure we can do all that we can and if they do need extra support, that the support services we offer match their needs.

Removing complexity

We will prepare in advance before contacting your client.

We’ll aim to limit paperwork as much as possible, and make decisions as quickly as possible to make things simple for them.

Setting expectations

Our aim is to be as clear as possible with your clients about their claim and to call when we say we will.

We will only ask for the information we need, and we won’t ask for them to prove things we already know.

Treating your client fairly 

Doing the right thing by your client underpins all we do.

They will have the time they need to talk through their claim. Your client will be offered different ways to provide the information to support their claim and we’ll explain why we make our decision.
