There are lots of ways to get in touch. Whether you have a question about our products or would like to talk to us about something else, we’ll always be happy to help.
We’re experiencing high call volumes driven by the Coronavirus outbreak and the knock-on impact this is having on the stock market and our customers’ pensions and investments. We’re sorry to keep you waiting and we’ll answer your call as soon as possible.
You may want to take a look at our latest update on the volatile market situation.
We’re here to provide support when you might need it. We can provide practical information on what to do if you need to let us know about a bereavement. Or our dedicated claims team are on hand if you need to make a claim on a policy.
