Future Generali Reimbursement Claim: In case of a reimbursement claim for your damaged vehicle, initially, you have to bear the expenses for the repair out of your pocket. After verification of all related documents, the insurer will reimburse the incurred cost.

How to File a Future Generali Motor Insurance Claim?

FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. What are voluntary deductibles in Future Generali car insurance?

A voluntary deductible is a minimum amount that you choose to pay from the claim amount. The policyholder is required to pay the amount before the insurer contributes to the rest of the claim value. For example, if your repair costs Rs. 10,000 and you choose a voluntary deductible of Rs. 3,000, this is paid in advance as an investment in your car's repairs. The insurer will cover the remaining claim amount up to the limits specified in the insurance policy.

Q2. In the event of theft, how much coverage would I receive?

In the event that the insured bike is stolen, the insurer provides the calculated Insured Declared Value (IDV) after depreciation and deductible.

Q3. Is a cashless system or a reimbursement system preferable?

In terms of speed and convenience, cashless claims have an upper hand. While reimbursement claims give you the freedom to choose your preferred repair workshop. Both systems have significant advantages, it is up to the policyholder to choose the one that is most suitable for the situation.

Q4. Will I be able to file a Future Generali vehicle claim if I don’t go to a Future Generali network garage?

Yes. Notify the insurer immediately after the accident, and take your vehicle to the garage of your choice. You can file a reimbursement claim and submit all the repair bills to the insurer.  The insurer will settle the claim amount after verification.
