Please visit our Claim Forms and Additional Guidance page to obtain a claim form and for further guidance on submitting your claim. 

Once the Insurers are made aware of a claim they will contact the Insurance Team to verify you and your trip are covered by the policy. 

Arranging Payment

For claims where the staff member and/or student has incurred personal expenditure then the Insurers can reimburse you directly if you provide them with your bank details

For claims where the money is to be reimbursed to the University, the insurers will require the University’s bank details. If you require these please contact finance-insurance@glasgow.ac.uk. Also, once the insurers have confirmed settlement, please email finance-insurance@glasgow.ac.uk with details of the settlement and the project code so that funds can be transferred.

Queries

The insurance team can assist if you have any queries regarding the submission of a claim or how your claim is being handled. If your claim is denied by the insurer, and you feel you have a valid claim, we are happy to review your claim and appeal it with the insurer if appropriate.

If you require any assistance, please contact finance-insurance@glasgow.ac.uk.
