Making a Car Insurance claim

If you need to talk to us about a claim, new or existing, then please call your underwriter. They will handle your claim and get things sorted quickly and fairly.

Call our partners at RAC on:

0800 003 001

Lines are open 24/7 and calls may be recorded.

    For your safety:

    • Move your car – try to get it off the road
    • Leave the car – stay a safe distance away
    • Be seen – put your hazard lights on

    A few things to expect:

    • You'll need the vehicle reg or your postcode
    • If you don't have breakdown cover, we can still help, but you'll need to pay for it
    • This won't affect your no claims discount

    If you have added Key Cover to your policy, then you have up to 30 days to start your claim.
