Loss Minimisation

Action should be immediately taken to protect property from further damage but no action should be taken to repair damage until instructed by our office or the Assessors.


Own Property Damage

All losses should be reported immediately to Insurance Vision who will arrange for Assessors to take whatever action is required.


Theft and Money

If the loss is due to Theft/Burglary or involves the loss of money, the Police should be contacted immediately and details kept of the officer and station notified.

All losses should also be reported to Insurance Vision as soon as possible.


Motor Vehicle - Own Damage

All accidents involving your motor vehicles should be reported immediately to either our office or the nearest office of your Insurer. The vehicle may be towed to the closest repairer capable of rectifying the damage.

The claim processing is expedited if a completed claim form can be left at the repairer's premises before the visit by the Assessors. If there are any delays in obtaining repair authorisation of necessary service, please contact Insurance Vision who will secure action.

Your policy excess is normally paid by you to the repairer upon collection of the repaired vehicle. If the damage is due to the negligence of an identifiable Third Party, your Insurer will normally endeavour to recover your excess.

Where a third party is involved, under no circumstances should any admission of liability be made.


Liability

In general terms no admission of liability should be made to any party in any form whatsoever. All correspondence, writs, summonses and demands should be sent to Insurance Vision immediately upon receipt.
