AXA enhances digital claims service for customers

AXA UK has launched new online tools to enable customers to notify claims digitally for both home and car insurance
Car insurance customers can now benefit from an end-to-end online claims experience

AXA customers can now benefit from a new and improved digital service when making an insurance claim with tools that allow them to notify losses online.

The improved online service allows customers to notify AXA of their claim online anytime they choose. Not only will it be more convenient, but it will also make for a more efficient claims experience, allowing AXA to offer support and resolve claims in a timely manner.

Car insurance customers can register claims for road traffic accidents, theft of vehicle, lost or stolen keys, misfuelling, storm or flood damage and malicious damage. Using this service gives customers the option of an end-to-end digital notification experience, offering a broader choice in the ways they can interact with customer service teams.

Home insurance customers can also use the tools to register claims online for theft, escape of water, flood, storm, accidental damage and accidental loss. This is then picked up by the customer service team to take the claim forward.

The improved service is already making an impact with customers. A recent home insurance claim was reviewed and a supplier was instructed within two hours of being registered online. Motor insurance customers have also been able to book in their vehicle for repairs within minutes of notifying AXA of a claim.

We know that our customers’ expectations have evolved in recent years and they want the claims process to be quick, clear and simple. That’s why we’ve worked hard to ensure that these enhanced digital claims tools offer customers fast and seamless journeys at a time when they need it most as well as offering increased flexibility and improving their overall experience.

AXA has focused on how it can improve customers’ experiences and interactions by providing digital capabilities where possible across its claims journeys. The claims submission service can also be accessed by brokers, enhancing the claims journey for them and their clients.

However, all the usual channels will still be available for brokers and customers to contact the claims teams. Even if they have notified a claim online, they can still pick up the phone and speak to someone if they prefer.
