Yes. We need all information about a driver's claims history, although this won't be taken into consideration on your policy until the next renewal.
If you don't keep your claims information up to date, it could result in your policy being cancelled.
We'll reimburse your excess as soon as the third party's insurer accepts responsibility for the incident. This might not always be possible or could take time.
For example, the other driver could deny causing the accident, or their insurer might not reply to us straight away.
We'll always keep you in the loop.
You'll have 60 days from the date the write-off is confirmed, to decide whether to transfer your cover to a different car.
If you don't want to transfer your cover, you'll need to cancel your policy otherwise the cover and any payments will continue.
If you're in a hire car when your policy ends, you'll need to give the hire car back.
New Car Replacement is included as standard on our Allianz cover level.
We'll look to replace your car with a new one if it's involved in a claim and written off, as long as the car is less than a year old and you or your partner are the first and only registered kepper. The replacement vehicle will be of the same or similar specification. You'll find all the details in your Document of Insurance in your online account.
New Car Replacement is not provided on Allianz Essentials cover level.
