1.
First things first
In
the event of an accident, take steps to prevent any further damage.
Secure medical assistance immediately for any injuries to people. Take
steps to prevent further property damage by moving a car out of traffic,
or turning off a water source in the event of a burst pipe, or
temporarily covering an open entrance to a home to shut out bad weather.
2.
If possible, talk to us
If
you have a claim to make, call us during business hours and we'll be
able to advise you about the implications of making a claim and what you
can expect from the process. We monitor claims to ensure you are being
provided with the service you have contracted for.
3.
If we're not immediately available
If
you need claims help immediately, and it's after our business hours, the
