    Give us a call on 1800 675 839 and let us know you would like to make a claim. We will confirm your details and advise you of the documents and information you might need to provide for your claim to be assessed.

    There are multiple ways you can start the claims process - simply choose the option you're most comfortable with.

If you're eligible for tele-claims, we'll assign you a dedicated case manager to work with you to gather all the information required to lodge your claim over the phone. If you are ineligible for tele-claims or would prefer, we can send you the claim forms you'll need to complete. When completing the forms, you'll need to include any supporting documents that have been requested by us.

When assessing your claim, the Insurer may also ask you for additional information relating to your claim. We will always contact you in writing or by phone if this is the case so you know exactly what is required. To ensure you have all the help you need, we'll give you the name and contact details of your own dedicated Claims Officer who will assist you with your claim and help answer any questions you may have along the way.
