Insurance fraudsters are costing honest insurance customers over £1.6bn a year and Spettro are working with insurers to act against fraudulent claims with the latest technology.It seems that the economic gloom is changing the UK’s attitude to insurance fraud, with a 27% increase in the number of people who see submitting a fraudulent claim as acceptable. A survey by insurance group RSA found that 4.7 million Brits have no problem with submitting a false claim - an increase of one million compared to March 2008.
Spettro’s franchisees, covering 30 yellow-page size territories across the UK including Northern Ireland, have been trained in the use of FLIR thermography cameras in an effort to reduce the number of fraudulent claims by accurately assessing damage caused by water leaks. Of course, this technology also helps the home owner by targeting the cause of damage, removing the need for numerous test holes in the floor, walls or ceiling of the property and ultimately completing repairs much more quickly.
Kevin England, one of the directors at Spettro, explains why homeowners should think twice before making a fraudulent claim, “Insurers still consider this a serious offence and if you are convicted of insurance fraud you will not only find it difficult to get buildings and home insurance in the future but also any other financial services products and support.”
“Our network of franchisees are not automatically looking for discrepancies in a claim as they assess damage to a property but they will become clear with the technology we use nowadays.”
Spettro deals with claims for flood, fire, storm, impact damage and burglaries. They also are involved in rental property refurbishments and detecting the origin of water leaks. Spettro Limited is regulated by the Financial Services Authority which allows them to loss assess and mediate with all the major insurance companies, a service which is free of charge to the insured.
With 30 territories already sold, the Spettro franchise is a popular choice so why not contact Spettro to request a prospectus on 01883 621047 or visit www.spettro.net
