How to make a claim
+ Motor vehicle claims
You can make a claim online or download a claims form, or contact us and we'll manage the process from collecting all the information, to managing the claims with the insurer, to getting the claims paid.
At the scene of the accident:
- Do not admit any liability or take any action that could be construed as acceptance of liability
- Take all reasonable steps to protect the property or person from further loss or injury
- Obtain the Third party details, if another person or company was involved, ie Vehicle Registration Number, drivers name and address, description of the vehicle
- Contact Certus Insurance Brokers immediately for further instructions, and so that a claim form can be sent for completion and an assessor appointed if required
After the accident:
- Complete and return the claim form without delay
- Your vehicle will need to be taken to a repairer for assessment.
