Weather Claim

Hundreds of insurance claims are actioned every day and many blame the weather for damage caused, be it to a property or a vehicle. In order to process and pay the claims insurance companies have to be sure that the policy holder has been fully truthful about the circumstances that attributed to the damage.

Weather claim services allow statements to be checked for validity before full payment is made when a policy holder blames the weather. One common excuse for having an accident in the car is that the road was icy and they lost control. This may well have been the case but without a weather claim check the insurance company is taking the client at their word, which may not be true if the damage caused will be expensive to repair.

As an extensive database is constantly updated with weather information like temperature in all areas of the country, meteorological companies can provide comprehensive weather claim reports to insurance firms. These will either corroborate their policy holder’s story or prove it false, where if a dispute is taken to court, the insurance company will have valid proof that their client has not claimed truthfully.
