Customer service was key in the tender process

Claims

Towergate has revised its loss-adjuster panel to include just nine providers in a more streamlined claims function.

The panel of nine will be divided into four sub-panels covering domestic and let property; casualty and liability; commercial property; and niche business lines.

Towergate Underwriting head of claims Jon Cawley said: “This selection process has been built around our customers and their specific service requirements, having acted on feedback identifying what factors are essential in ensuring an efficient claims process.

“We considered many factors, but ultimately customer service had the strongest weighting and was the primary reason for selection.”
