Extra support during the Claims Process
We know that lodging an insurance claim can be overwhelming, especially for vulnerable customers experiencing challenging circumstances. That’s why we’re proud to introduce Kim Scaysbrook, our Customer Care Manager, who works within our CHU Services and Claims division to provide extra support when it is needed most. While CHU’s adjusters and claims specialists focus on the repair and managing claims efficiently, Kim is available to provide personal support for customers who may be struggling due to life events or the emotional impact of a claim.
Kim’s role is dedicated to supporting vulnerable customers. If you have any customers with a CHU policy, who you think may need special care – for example, the elderly, those facing mental health challenges, people who are experiencing hardships in their lives, or have sensitive claims involving a death or serious injury – Kim will ensure they receive the emotional care and guidance they need during the claims process.
