Windscreen Claims

Overview

A claim made for damages to your vehicle's windscreen under events covered by your insurer.

There are two types of windscreen claims:

1. Replacement: Complete replacement of the windscreen. Only ONE windscreen claim may be made throughout the period of your policy unless you reinstate the windscreen cover with an additional premium.

2. Repair: A claim for repairs to the windscreen. The claimed amount will be deducted from the sum insured for the windscreen. You can reinstate the amount by paying an additional premium or maintaining the balance after the claim.

You can claim for repair or replacement without affecting your No Claim Discount (NCD).

Who can make a Windscreen Claim?

Only valid for comprehensive motor insurance policyholders with a windscreen cover extension.
