Get my quotesCall the tracker provider first
Before the police or the insurer, phone the tracker provider. Their recovery room acts on the live signal while the trail is fresh - the most time-critical step.
If you are in any danger, Guardian Angel emergency assistance is there for your safety; the recovery call is about the car.
Lodging the claim
1st for Women takes the theft notification on its app and claims line, with the app used for document upload once the case is open.
Open the case promptly so the assessment and settlement can begin.
Recovery and claim together
The provider's recovery room chases the car while the insurer handles the settlement. Two tracks on one theft.
Update both; a recovery within 48 hours can change a write-off into a repair, and the insurer needs to know at once.
The police case number
The claim file needs the SAPS case number before substantive handling. Report at the station, secure the number, keep the investigating officer's details.
The police record anchors the rest of the file.
Tracker status on the date of loss
1st for Women checks the device's state on the day. A live, subscribed, monitored unit that reported the theft is standard; a lapsed or silent one draws scrutiny.
Keep the plan paid and the certificate filed so the tracker supports the claim.
