Most people assume when they’ve been in a car accident they need to contact their insurance straight away. But this doesn’t have to be the case.
Instead, you can use an accident management company, like Claimsline, to handle the accident management for you.
In this guide we'll look at how accident management companies work and how they can potentially save you costs after a road accident. Let's dive right in.
Accident management companies offer support after a road accident by managing the entire process on your behalf. They assess the accident, liaise with your insurance company for claims, arrange for your car's repair, and ensure you have a replacement vehicle if needed.
Their goal is to minimise your stress and inconvenience, typically charging no upfront fees as they recover costs from the insurer of the at-fault party. This service aims to provide peace of mind and a hassle-free path to getting back on the road.
This approach simplifies the post-accident process, ensuring efficient and comprehensive support.
Over 18,000 motorists have used our services, saving an average of £537.*
As soon as your accident has occurred, get in touch with the accident management company first, even before your insurer. You can call us on 0333 006 8282 or make a claim online.
When calling, you’ll speak to one of our dedicated claims professionals within just 3 minutes.
Our handlers will ask you about the incident and your claim. They will collect all of the relevant information needed for the claim. Whether you are at fault or not, our service will be tailored to your specific circumstances.
One of the many benefits of using Claimsline, is we provide you with a like-for-like replacement vehicle on the same day of your accident. Motorists qualify for this if they are not at fault for the incident.
Providing you with a vehicle on the same day is one of our most important priorities. This allows you to get on with your day, and not need to worry about sourcing transport until your vehicle is repaired.
In addition to this, you’ll receive a free £150 fuel card to help towards your costs.
If you are at fault for the incident, we will put £150 towards your excess, and manage the repairs to your vehicle. All you need to do is alert your insurer and provide a claim reference number. You will get £150 reduced off your excess cost when you come to collect your vehicle.
If your vehicle is not drivable after the incident, we will arrange its recovery for you.
Using a claims management company to handle your incident means you can sit back and let them do all the work for you. As soon as you report the accident to the accident management company, they take over.
Claimsline will handle the recovery of your vehicle, while also ensuring you have a replacement vehicle of the same standard.
On top of this, we will handle the incident with the insurers, and secure your payout for your vehicle.
Claimsline manages everything to allow you to solely focus on recovering from your accident.
You can be assured that your vehicle will be in safe hands with Claimsline. We only use approved repairers that are BS101 registered. They all use the latest technology, and will only use first-hand parts as replacements.
When using a claims management company, the cost of the claim is covered by the insurance company of the person at fault for the incident. Therefore, you will not be charged.
As you will not be claiming through your insurer, your no-claims bonus will not reset back down to zero. With car insurance prices being at an all-time high, increasing by 58% in just 12 months. This means keeping your no claims bonus is essential to saving money.
At Claimsline, we find it extremely frustrating that motorists lose their no claims bonus if they’re in an accident that wasn’t their fault. By signing up to Claimsline’s services, you keep your no claims bonus safe.
By not having any years on your no claims bonus, you run the risk of your insurance premium increasing.
