When will you pay me?

We aim to make a claims decision within 14 working days. However, occasionally we need more time to make a claims approval decision. This could be for a number of reasons - for example the type of claim, how complex the case is, and whether we have all the information and documents we need. When we approve claims, we then aim to pay within 10 working days.

How will you pay me?

Once your claim is approved, we'll send a cheque. For some claims you can select your preferred payment method. If this is the case, we’ll highlight this on the claims form.

After I've made a claim, how long should I keep my original documents?

Please keep all original copies of any documents for three months (even after you’ve been paid). This is because occasionally we need to see these to either verify a claim or as part of our own internal auditing and checks.
