Depending on the type of policy and the amount of the claim they may want to send a claims investigator round first. If he approves it then usually - again, depending upon the type of policy - they'll issue you a credit note or a (list of) approved suppliers/repairmen that can replace/repair it.

Once your claim is assessed you can usually expect it to be resolved in a couple of weeks. If there's an on-line form then use that, can take a week off the time.

[I'm the silly sod that cancelled their insurance policy 5 weeks before the sound on the TV went...and it'll cost me £140 for the parts and labour ]

It was a plasma screen that fell on the floor and smashed the screen on the inside, fkn gutted, the policy is covered for tv's but the plasma is here so they can send over who they like to see that the screen is smashed for themselves
