BGL Insurance, a leading digital distributor of personal lines insurance, has launched a new, market-leading digital claims portal with long-term automotive glazing partner, Auto Windscreens. The two organisations first formed the partnership in 2013, with Auto Windscreens exclusively managing all vehicle glass claims across the motor insurance brands that BGL arranges and administers car and van insurance for, which covers over three million motorists every year. This latest initiative forms part of BGL Insurance’s ongoing investment into claims, as well as its wider digital transformation agenda. The new system allows customers to quickly report a glass claim via their motor insurance portal, with all relevant data including policy number, car registration, and insurer, securely transferred to the Auto Windscreens booking system in real-time. This enables customers to quickly and easily schedule an appointment with a glass technician directly. Mark Townsend, Managing Director of Motor & Home at BGL Insurance, said: “When a customer needs to make a claim, they often require immediate reassurance. Since the summer, we’ve already handled over 21,000 glass claims from customers and with winter approaching, this will only increase. With glass generally the area that customers need to claim against the most and with windscreen repairs increasingly getting more complex with vehicle and tech advancements, we are delighted to have significantly enhanced our process in conjunction with Auto Windscreens to offer customers a rapid and simple experience.” James MacBeth, Managing Director of Auto Windscreens, added: “Investment in technology is a cornerstone of our business and providing an efficient one-stop-shop for glass and windscreen replacement and calibration is our blueprint. We’ve adopted smart technology to connect with our customers’ vehicles and partner with leaders in global automotive technology to ensure the claims process is quick and straightforward. By offering our customers exactly what they need and fast, we are helping BGL Insurance and its motor brands stand out from the crowd.” Share this page on social media Share this page on Facebook Share this page on Twitter Share this page on Google+ Share this page on LinkedIn Sign up for job alerts Careers login Supplier Terms Twitter Facebook Linkedin YouTube SITEMAP PRIVACY & COOKIES ACCESSIBILITY TERMS OF USE MODERN SLAVERY STATEMENT © BGL GROUP 2019 BGL Group Limited (Registered in England No: 2593690) Registered Office: Pegasus House, Bakewell Road, Orton Southgate, Peterborough, PE2 6YS.
