Making a claim

When you contact our claims team or fill out the online claim form you will be asked for the following information:-

  • Customer name, address and postcode
  • Your daytime contact telephone number and email address
  • The vehicle registration
  • Details of the issue
  • Upload the repair quote if this has been obtained

If the repair is covered by the agreement, we will authorise the repair and confirm our liability. We will then issue a confirmation form. Authorisation is valid for 3 months after repair authority is given.


Please note: All repairs must be authorised by us prior to being carried out. Any repairs carried out without our authorisation cannot be reimbursed.

Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend returning to the dealer you purchased the vehicle from to diagnose the issue. If they don’t have repair facilities, you could try the Good Garage Scheme

You can opt to use a main dealer or a repairer/garage which isn't approved by us, but they may ask you to pay for the repair costs up front. This means you’ll then need to claim back any costs afterwards. It may also cost you more due to higher labour rates or use of original manufactured parts. Please check your terms and conditions for more information on parts, labour, and diagnostics.

Some 2020 warranties cover hire car costs. This typically is if the repair time is over 8 hours in labour time. This is not the length of time the vehicle is of the road but the repair time as identified by a recognised technical data site (E3) Please check your terms and conditions to see if you’re covered.

This depends on which cover level you have. Please check your terms and conditions for more information.

To start a claim, your repairer will need the following:

  • Your vehicle registration number
  • Your full name, address and postcode (as it appears on your plan)
  • For some schemes, you may also need to provide the vehicle's service history

Once your garage has inspected your vehicle, they’ll register your claim with us over the phone or online. We can approve most claims can be authorised within 2 hours as soon as we receive the correct information from your garage. If your claim is more complex, we may need to see photos of damaged parts and more detailed feedback from the repairer.

That depends on your cover level. For example, some 2020 warranties don’t cover costs likes diagnostics. Please check your terms and conditions to see what you’re covered for.

It also depends on which repairer you take your vehicle to. If you don’t take your car to a main dealer, you may also be responsible for some aspects of the parts and labour costs. Again, please check your terms and conditions for more information.

Some of our 2020 warranty plans do not cover diagnostic costs. We recommend that you check your terms and conditions for more information.

If the claim has been submitted by your selling dealer or the repairing Garage, they will normally invoice us directly. This happens as soon as the repair has been completed. If we are in receipt of the invoice by Tuesday, we will pay on the Friday of that week.

If you’re using a main dealer or your own garage, they may ask you to pay for the repair costs upfront. You would then need to claim this back from us afterwards. The same payment process applies.

We aim to pay repair invoices 2 to 5 working days from the date we receive a valid invoice. As detailed in the payment process.

You may be eligible to transfer your vehicle to another person. To request a transfer, please email support@2020warranty.co.uk. You can find more information by checking your terms and conditions.
