• Once you reach the final step and click submit, the system will generate the claim registration number. You should carefully jot down this number and use it for all future references with respect to the claim settlement process.
• If your bike has been damaged in an accident, then either drive it to the nearest network garage or use the towing facility to take it to the nearest network garage. In case you take your bike to a non-network garage, keep all the original repair/replacement bills to get the reimbursement later.
• A surveyor, appointed by the motor insurance company will visit the address of inspection, as mentioned by you and prepare the survey report, which will be submitted to the insurance company. You claim will be settled once the survey report and other documents have been scrutinized.
