Understanding Personal Lines Claims Handling

This webinar delivered by Alan Chandler one of the leading presenters in the UK looks at what a personal line claims handler would look for in the event of a claim.

The webinar explores the importance of early notification of claim by the policyholder, what information a Personal Lines claims handler will typically seek and when they will use an outsourcer. The presentation will also explore the insurers obligations under the Enterprise Act 2016 and why they must settle promptly. Finally, we will explore when a policyholder can approach the FOS over a claim.
