Non-Fault Claim FAQs

Common questions about our non-fault claim service and how it benefits you.

What is a non-fault claim?

A non-fault claim is when you make an insurance claim for an accident that wasn't your fault. The key difference is that the costs are recovered from the at-fault party's insurer rather than your own policy.

Will my no-claims bonus be affected?

No, your no-claims bonus will remain intact when you use our non-fault claim service, as all costs are recovered from the at-fault party's insurer rather than claimed on your own policy.

What costs can be recovered?

All costs can be recovered including repairs, replacement vehicle hire, policy excess, personal items damaged in the accident, loss of earnings, travel expenses, and other incidental costs related to the accident.

How quickly can I get a replacement vehicle?

We can typically arrange for a replacement vehicle to be delivered to you within hours of your initial contact with us, ensuring minimal disruption to your mobility.

Are there any costs I need to pay?

No, the entire process is conducted on a zero-cost basis for you. All costs are recovered directly from the at-fault party's insurer, meaning you don't need to pay anything upfront or make any excess payments.

What if the other driver is uninsured?

We can still help in cases involving uninsured drivers. We'll work with the Motor Insurers' Bureau (MIB) to pursue your claim and can still provide replacement vehicles and repairs while this is ongoing.
