Helping hand

We want all our customers to have the best possible experience when interacting with us.

Helping Hand enables you to tell us quickly, easily, and discreetly, using our online form, of any communication or accessibility needs we should be aware of when interacting with you regarding your Zurich Life protection policy.

This could include things like needing documents in large print, to interpreting services like SignLive or Relay - helping you do insurance your way.

What happens with the information I provide?

  • Once you’ve completed the online form our team of customer wellbeing experts will update your records to note the additional support you require when you contact us.
  • If we identify additional information or resources we think might be useful, we’ll send these to you via your preferred communication channel.
  • We’ll keep the information you provide to support the servicing of your policy, in line with our Fair Processing Notice.
  • You can let us know at any time if you’d like us to change our records to update or remove the additional support details recorded on our system.

We’ve got a whole range of different ways to make it as easy as possible for you to tell us about the support you need in a way, and at a time that works for you.
