COVID CLAIMS GROUP

Grassroots campaign by and for #SMEs, demanding that insurers recognise claims for #COVID19 for extended business interruption policyholders.

I would love to know if @HiscoxUK are genuinely 'in the process of doing eligibility checks' for the businesses they say they are, or whether it's code for 'we haven' t even looked at your claim'.
@LaGrandeQuercia @harrycurtispost @GroupHiscox @GroupCovid @TheFCA @sabahmeddings

[Pear&Olive Scratch Kitchen @PearOlive]

@GroupHiscox @TheFCA @GroupCovid @wearethentia @HiscoxUK Can someone please explain why the @TheFCA wont enforce and follow through the judgment? Why or how is @HiscoxUK allowed to get away with the game playing and no one can help with this Or stop them! What happening here is disgraceful.

[Anna @smartboudoir]

Your contact with clients over BI claims remains woeful, @HiscoxUK. I'm so stressed now with this, my mental health is suffering almost as much as my finances. I wish I was alone in that, but it's repeated across hundreds of businesses. @LaGrandeQuercia @GroupHiscox @GroupCovid

[Anna @smartboudoir]

Why, after this long, are @HiscoxUK not able to even confirm to people that they have a valid claim?Emails sent to clients 4/2 saying they weren't ordered to close, followed by radio silence. How is this ok, @TheFCA?
@LaGrandeQuercia @GroupHiscox @GroupCovid

[Anna @smartboudoir]

You know how, when you put a claim into your insurer, you get a claim number? Why is that not happening with the BI portal you are making everyone use, @HiscoxUK @GroupHiscox @GroupCovid @TheFCA @BritishInsurers

[Anna @smartboudoir]

Hiscox Action Group warns insurers may seek to ‘read down’ BI ruling https://t.co/tieTQhe4AB
The word 'may' being superfluous, of course.

[Anna @smartboudoir]

Is there some standard for contact that insurers should be meeting, @BritishInsurers? It's 10 days since I replied to @HiscoxUK absurd email stating they didn't consider our business closed by mandate - no response. It's not just me, so can SOMEONE fathom what is going on?

[Anna @smartboudoir]

Me and @sonia_rishi setting out the reality for small businesses of @HiscoxUK continuing to not progress bi claims. @TheFCA @BritishInsurers @LaGrandeQuercia @GroupCovid @GroupHiscox @undergroundfox

[Anna @smartboudoir]

If you call your insurer, and their recorded message says to contact your broker, and your broker say to contact your insurer, what are you actually meant to do @HiscoxUK, @TheFCA, @LaGrandeQuercia, @GroupHiscox, @GroupCovid

[COVID CLAIMS GROUP @GroupCovid]

The reality of the #businessinterruption #insurance scandal for #smallbusinesses up and down the UK. @MelJStride @BritishInsurers @hmtreasury

[Notes of Northumberland @NotesofNorthlnd]

@smartboudoir @HiscoxUK @GroupHiscox @GroupCovid @LaGrandeQuercia @undergroundfox @TheFCA @BritishInsurers @CBItweets @sonia_rishi Thanks - the truth behind their pointless delays.

[Anna @smartboudoir]

20:50 Me, and @sonia_rishi on R4 Today programme, along with @Mishcon_de_Reya - explaining what @HiscoxUK are doing wrong
@GroupHiscox @GroupCovid @LaGrandeQuercia @undergroundfox

[Anna @smartboudoir]

Bit of insurance doublethink - sending an email telling you that in their opinion you are not covered is not a rejection of your claim. You'd forgive people thinking it might be, though, eh, @HiscoxUK? @TheFCA you need to be looking at this.
@GroupHiscox @LaGrandeQuercia

[Anna @smartboudoir]

Just got confirmation from our MP's office that yes, photography studios were ordered to close in March, November and now. Is that enough for you @HiscoxUK or do I have to get it signed in blood from Boris?
@GroupCovid @LaGrandeQuercia @GroupHiscox

[COVID CLAIMS GROUP @GroupCovid]

@smartboudoir @HiscoxUK @TheFCA @GroupHiscox @LaGrandeQuercia Not exactly difficult for them to check!

[James Ollerenshaw @jamesoll]

I was interviewed by @Reuters and China Central Television about the failure of @BritishInsurers on the issue of #businessinterruption #insurance. Some are delaying or resisting valid #claims so #thefightgoeson. https://t.co/4pWbqDq8Fy

[COVID CLAIMS GROUP @GroupCovid]

@mantonn @smartboudoir Agreed. Still early days following the @UKSupremeCourt ruling. But we want to understand which insurers are ready to engage and those still resisting.

[COVID CLAIMS GROUP @GroupCovid]

Great question, @smartboudoir. We'd love to hear about any #businessinterruption claimant who's been successful. For the rest #thefightgoeson!

[Anna @smartboudoir]

Has anyone got anywhere at all, with any insurer, following @TheFCA judgment?
Someone give a girl some hope, here.
@GroupHiscox @LaGrandeQuercia @BritishInsurers @BusinessCovid19 @biinjustice @undergroundfox @CBItweets

[Hairven @Hairven1]

@BritishInsurers have no reputation left and we all #uk now question the purpose of having policies that you can never claim on! @InsuranceJusti1 @GroupHiscox @BusinessCovid19 @GroupCovid public enquiry! #insurers have got away with this for long enough! https://t.co/qt6uGMXAst

[Jen Frost @JenFrost_X]

As @TheFCA proposes a fee cap for CMCs, @Insurance_Post today reports that Covid-hit businesses are being targeted by lawyers and claims firms looking for as much as 40% of their business interruption insurance payouts.

[COVID CLAIMS GROUP @GroupCovid]

@GroupHiscox @knoxomous @NotesofNorthlnd @smartboudoir @simonnread Ain't that the truth.
