Loss and Theft

These go together as sometimes it is difficult to know whether an item has been lost or it has been stolen.

We suggest you do the following:

  • Advise your customer to report the loss to the Police and obtain a crime report number. There is a facility on the loss report form (see below) for you to describe the circumstances where this has not been done which will be taken into account when adjusting the claim
  • If a repair is not possible locally advise the customer to retain the damaged articles for return to the UK for possible inspection.
  • Obtain details of how the damage occurred and the name and address of any person or organisation who may be responsible. The customer may file a claim on their return to the UK.

This section also covers the cost of hiring equipment following:

  • Loss or theft
  • Damage
  • Delays by airline

Please note the sports shop usually offers a local 'insurance' which whilst this is not strictly necessary as there is protection under our policy, customers ought to consider taking out as it reduces hassle in resort.
