9.2 You acknowledge and agree that in all cases, the Company will decide in its sole discretion whether any claim made pursuant to this clause meets the conditions imposed by this clause, and what exclusions and limitations apply, and the Company’s decision on such matters will be final and binding.

If, in the Company’s reasonable opinion, you are not fully compliant with each requirement in this clause, or if you cease to be so compliant at any time during the process of invoking the Guarantee (for example by receiving an insurance payment), the Guarantee will be invalid and no payment will be made to you. If you do not wish or are unable to comply with any of these conditions, you should inform us and the Guarantee will not apply to you:

(a) initially, with the other party by mutual agreement as to liability and appropriate compensation with reference to the booking;

(b) where theft or criminal damage or illegal activity of any nature is suspected or alleged, by contacting the police and, following the outcome of any criminal investigation, making any claim for compensation to any insurer or other body (including without limitation government bodies or schemes) which is or becomes available following such investigation; and

(c) by making a claim or claims to any and all existing insurers (including without limitation household insurers) and pursuing them to their official conclusion.

Replacement items will be valued at their actual cash value, that is their current market value minus wear and tear. The sentimental value of items shall not be relevant to their valuation.

9.5 Process of invoking the Guarantee. Failure to comply with the deadlines in this clause will invalidate the Guarantee. You must notify the Company using the email address listed below or on the Contact Us page within seven days of discovering the loss or damage for which you wish to invoke the guarantee.

9.5.1 “Claim Invalid”, meaning that your claim is not covered by the Guarantee for the reason(s) stated;

9.5.2 “Claim Pending”, meaning that your claim is on hold until the steps outlined in the response are taken and pursued to a conclusion. This will normally mean that the outcome of a claim against insurance or a criminal investigation is awaited. It is your responsibility to maintain contact with the police and/or insurance company and/or any other agent or applicable entity to follow the process of the investigation, criminal proceedings or claim; or

9.5.3 “Claim Eligible”, meaning that we are prepared to consider your claim and you have 10 days from receipt of our response to follow the steps in clause 9.6.

9.6.1 A statement signed by you confirming that the information in the claim is true to the best of your knowledge and belief;

9.6.2 A complete description of the loss or damage suffered, including dates (which may be estimated where exact dates are impossible to confirm), nature and cause thereof, and including proof of ownership, date of acquisition, physical condition and supporting evidence such as receipts, inventories, quotes for repair work etc., plus the claimed value of any high-value items lost or damaged;

9.6.3 Where you are the Storage Provider, evidence of your ownership or tenant status with regard to the premises;

9.6.4 A statement giving full details and dates of what, if any, action you have taken to resolve the matter, including without limitation negotiations with the other party to the booking, claims against insurance policies and police reports, and all communications with the foregoing, including responses received;

If an existing insurance policy or other mechanism exists but does not apply, the reasons must be given. If they do apply, evidence must be supplied that the process of claiming has been initiated and the claim to the Company may then be put on hold until such process is concluded.

9.7 Upon receipt of a full claim, the Company will evaluate it before making a decision as to whether to make a payment under the Guarantee. Except in exceptional circumstances or those beyond its control, the Company will make a decision within 90 days of receipt of the full claim. As part of its evaluation of the full claim, the Company may do any of the following, in its sole discretion:

9.9.1 Require you to submit a Data Access Request at your own cost to fraud prevention agencies or insurance information exchanges and to disclose the results to us;

9.9.6 Make requests for further information from the other party, insurance companies, the police or other authority (including local authorities), or other relevant parties (such as neighbours or witnesses to any incident out of which the claim arises). As a party to a booking, you hereby agree to use your best efforts to facilitate such investigations, including giving your permission for information to be released to us where we reasonably require this, and including where the person making the full claim is the other party with respect to which you have made the booking;

9.9.7 Conduct interview(s), either ourselves or via a representative, with either party or with any relevant third party, and you hereby agree to use your best efforts to facilitate such activity;

9.9.8 Inspect (either ourselves or using an expert to carry out the inspection on our behalf) any damaged items or any remaining Stored Items or the Storage Space or Storage Premises upon reasonable notice; and/or

9.9.9 Pay a sum under the Guarantee, or refuse to do so, giving reasons for the decision.

9.8.3 Any loss or damage in excess of any limit set out in clause 9.4 arising out of one or more bookings entered into by the claimant;

9.8.5 Damage to stored items, or to the premises by stored items, which were not packed reasonably safely and securely, or which were stored in a way that made it reasonably foreseeable that damage to the items or the premises could occur. By way of example, but not limited to, none of the following would be covered: fragile glass items in cardboard boxes with weighty boxes placed on top of them, unprotected photos stored in a damp environment, or items made of cloth packed in an unsealed bag, or liquids stored without being properly sealed, heavy items placed in areas unable to bear their weight, or items that rust due to a damp environment;

9.8.6 Damage caused by reasonably foreseeable and preventable occurrences (including without limitation fire or burst water pipes) where either party failed to take reasonable measures to prevent or limit such damage. By way of example, but not limited to, failing to repair faults in the structure or fittings at the premises or failing to fit smoke alarms at the premises;

9.8.11 Theft or malicious or criminal damage to items (a) which is not reported to the police within 48 hours of an innocent party becoming aware of it, and in any event within 7 days of the end of the booking period, or (b) where efforts to recover the value thereof (whether via criminal compensation schemes or from existing insurance policies) have been unsuccessful;

9.8.12 Any loss or damage (a) to or caused by Prohibited Item(s) knowingly stored, or (b) to any items or property claimed in respect of any booking where Prohibited Item(s) were knowingly stored. For the avoidance of doubt, the presence of Prohibited Item(s) will automatically preclude any claim by the Storage Seeker against the Guarantee, and may preclude any such claim by the Storage Provider where the Company reasonably suspects that the Storage Provider was aware of such presence, regardless of whether the claimed loss or damage was caused by or related to the presence of such Prohibited Item(s);

9.8.13 Damage caused by stored items to goods or personal possessions owned by the Storage Provider. The Guarantee only covers damage to the fixtures, fittings or structure of the premises;
