Depending on the type of incident and the financial estimate of the claim a representative of Allianz Insurance plc claims handling partner, GAB Robins, may undertake an inspection for us.
Do you have to do my repairs or can I use my local garage?
We have a vast network of approved repairers to make things easier and a little more convenient should your vehicle need any repairs after an accident. We will also try to provide you with a courtesy car wherever we can, which is of course subject to availability and terms & conditions.

We will send you a notification three weeks prior to the end of your policy. This is to tell you how much your renewal premium will cost.
Help! I need to renew my policy!
If you pay by Direct Debit your policy will automatically be renewed, unless you tell us that you don't want it renewed.
If I cancel my policy before my next renewal will I qualify for a refund?
Yes you might - it will however depend on how long you have been a policy holder with us. For more information check our Key Facts to see if your cancellation fee is payable before you make a decision.
