Make a claim on your Big Cat policy:
By far the easiest way to submit a claim under the Big Cat Travel Insurance policy is to proceed through our new eClaims portal provided by CSAL - https://www.submitaclaim.co.uk/bigcat This is a self service portal which allows for automatic claim updates via email or SMS. You can now log into your own personal portal to review information, upload documentation and check if there are any outstanding actions. If you have any issues with submitting your claim please do let us know here at the Big Cat Office and we will be more than happy to assist you.
