Will my premium increase following a claim?
Possibly, however difficult to confirm as other claims under the policy will be considered in addition, market conditions will also be relevant and until the claim settles reserves are applied based on information available at the time.
How long will my claim take?
It is difficult to advise, and every claim is different. We will ensure we monitor your claim from report to ensure the claim is progressing. We will provide an update to you, when necessary.
What is a policy excess?
This is the portion of the claim you are responsible for paying. Please refer to your policy schedule to identify the applicable excess.
How long do I have to report a claim?
Generally, insurers require you to report all matters as soon as you are aware, or the incident happens. Please consult your policy Terms & Conditions to confirm any specific requirements. For example, water damage can turn to rot if left unattended.
Should I undertake any emergency works?
If any emergency works are required in order to make a property safe, these should be undertaken as soon as possible – however you should ensure photos are kept of the initial damage and full itemised records are kept of any works completed. Any works undertaken without Insurers consent are ‘at your own risk’ until Insurers have accepted the claim.
Important - If you are a leaseholder, You should discuss this with the Property Owner or Management Company to determine who is liable for the excess under the terms of your lease.
Will I have to pay VAT?
If you are registered for VAT, then the insurer will likely make a tax exclusive payment. Your accountant/accounts team will then recover the VAT element from HMRC on your VAT return.
