We understand that being in an accident can be very stressful for everyone involved, which is why we aim to make the claims process as simple as possible.
As a first step, make sure that everyone involved is safe, and call emergency services if anyone is injured.
WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE A CLAIM
Make sure to have this information ready:
- Your policy documents
- Information about other parties involved in the accident, such as name, car registration, address and phone number
This information would be useful, but it’s not required to make a claim:
- Contact details of any witnesses
- Crime reference number
- Clear photos of the accident and the damage to the vehicles involved
Remember, never admit fault to an accident before speaking to us or your insurer

If you’d like to discuss an ongoing claim, please call 0333 234 1050.

A No Claims Bonus, or NCB, is a discount that can be applied to your insurance premiums in recognition of your claims-free driving history. The discount may increase for each concurrent year you don’t claim against your policy, up to a maximum of around nine years.
Protected No Claims Bonus is optional cover that you can choose to buy, which will prevent your No Claims Bonus from being reduced in the event of an accident.
Your No Claims Bonus is protected for up to two claims in any consecutive three year period.
We will need to know if your vehicle has been in an accident, even if you don’t intend to make a claim immediately. This is usually a condition in your insurance policy so we can maintain your records accurately if you do wish to claim in the future.
If you need to let us know about an accident on an information-only basis, please get in touch with us via Live Chat.

A voluntary excess is an amount which you can choose to pay towards a claim when you are purchasing your policy. The voluntary excess you choose may influence your total premium price.
A compulsory excess is set by your insurer upon quotation and is non-negotiable. The total compulsory excess can vary as it's dependent on a number of factors, such as the policy type, your vehicle or your age.
Your total excess, which is the voluntary and compulsory excess combined, is the amount you would need to pay in the event of a claim. For example, if your policy has a compulsory excess of £200 and a voluntary excess of £200, you would need to pay £400 towards the costs of the claim.
Before purchasing your policy, you should always consider whether you can afford the total excess should you need to make a claim.
