I made a house insurance claim almost four years ago, for escape of water. Now I'm shopping around for this year's quote, using online insurance providers.
Some sites ask about previous claims, and I can fill in the details; all fine. But other sites simply ask if there were any claims in the past three years (the answer's no), or only ask how many years I have without claims (three).
Am I excluded from using an online quote that doesn't allow me to explicitly enter details of my previous claim? Or does the fact that they ask about claims in the past three years mean that older claims are not relevant to that particular provider?
And if my previous claim is still relevant, then for how long is it relevant? E.g. if I have five more claims over the next thirty years, will I need to record them all on each quotation application forever after?
Thanks.
