Making a claim?

We know that making a claim can be a stressful time, so we aim to make the process as clear and straightforward as possible.

Get in touch for free advice on making a successful insurance claim. We'll talk you through what your insurer will need from you, help you gather the right documentation, and act as a point of contact along the way. While we can't guarantee the outcome of any individual claim (that decision sits with your insurer), we can make sure you know what to expect and aren't left to navigate the process alone.

You can also contact your insurer's claims number directly. You'll find it in your policy documentation.

Still have a question?

Our Blackburn-based advisers are happy to talk it through, with no obligation.

Do I have to claim through you, or can I contact my insurer directly?

You can contact your insurer directly using the claims number in your policy documentation, or you can call us first for free advice. We're happy to point you in the right direction and help you understand what to expect from the process.

What information will I need to make a claim?

You'll usually need your policy number, personal details, and information relevant to the claim, such as medical evidence for a critical illness or income protection claim, or a death certificate for a life insurance claim. Your insurer will confirm exactly what's required.

How long does an insurance claim take to be paid out?

It varies by insurer and claim type. Straightforward claims can be settled within a few weeks, while claims requiring additional medical evidence or investigation may take longer. We can help you understand likely timescales for your specific policy.

What if my claim is declined?

If a claim is declined, your insurer must explain why. We can help you understand the decision and, where appropriate, support you in raising a complaint or seeking further clarification.

Can you help even if I didn't arrange my policy through Red Rose?

Yes. We're happy to offer free, no-obligation guidance on the claims process regardless of who arranged your original policy.
