We then ask you when, where and who it happened to.

Step 4 - Now describe what happened

Tell us in your own words what happened. Please describe this in as much detail as you can, as the more details you give us the easier it'll be for us to assess your claim as fast as possible.

Step 5 - Questions specific to your claim

The next questions are specifically about your claim. As you answer them, we'll advise you of what exact documents you'll need to provide to support your claim.

Example: for a baggage claim we might ask:

Step 6 - Now list the expenses you are claiming

We ask you to list any expenses you are claiming for one at a time. The type of claim will determine what type of expenses you are able to list.

Add your expenses one at a time and build up a list of the expenses you are claiming.

Example:

Step 7 - You've got e-mail!

We now understand your claim well enough, so check your email as we will have sent you instructions and a list of the documents we need. Gather your receipts and documents together and follow the instructions and attach your documents to your claim. Your claim has been saved so you can return to it easily.

Step 8 - Upload your documents

Once you have gathered your documents together, it's time to upload them and submit your claim. Log in to TID and return to your claim.

• If you have the documents we ask for, click 'Select files' and choose the files to upload. You can submit multiple files for each requested document if it is necessary.
