Important Advice: Do Not Manually Open Cargo Claim Tickets

If you are dealing with damaged, wet, crushed, or missing cargo, do not manually create a generic support ticket through these interfaces. Instead, navigate to your active shipment details page within myCall > My Bookings and click the File Cargo Claim button. Finalizing and submitting your claim notice through that dedicated wizard automatically generates an urgent, pre-formatted support ticket under the billing category, complete with your signed documents and uploaded files routed directly to our Legal Claims Division.

Workflow Comparison: Support Channels vs Claims Wizard

Slow Path
✕ Manual Support Ticket

You manually type out an inquiry in the generic support panel, upload files with general labels, and submit.

1. Open Ticket Standard ticket lands in generic support queue.
2. Manual Assessment General helpdesk operators read, categorize, and manual-route.
3. Legal Triage Delay (48-72h) Triage queue holds legal processing due to missing files.

✓ Dynamic Claims Wizard

Click "File Cargo Claim" on your Booking details. The system generates notices and binds mandatory vault checklist folders automatically.

1. Auto-Compiled Claim Notice Pre-filled claim PDF is generated for you instantly.

Critical: Notice Timelines & Preservation of Rights
Ocean Freight (Hague / Hague‑Visby Rules):
  • Apparent damage must be recorded immediately at delivery on the EIR or delivery receipt.
  • Concealed damage must be reported to the carrier in writing within 3 days of container delivery.
  • Failing to meet these timelines allows the carrier to treat the cargo as delivered "in good order."
Air Freight (Montreal Convention 1999):
  • For cargo damage, a written complaint must be filed with the airline within 14 days of receipt.
  • For delay, the notice window is 21 days.
Insurance (Policy‑Specific Requirements):
  • Most underwriters require prompt notification, often within 24–72 hours of discovering loss or damage.
  • Missing the carrier's legal notice windows can invalidate subrogation rights, and insurers may reject the claim if late notice prevents recovery from the carrier.

Automated Support Ticket Integration

Once submitted, the platform bypasses the standard operations queue. Our system automatically creates an urgent ticket under Support Requests (Category: billing) and routes all files to our legal division for fast tracking.

ST-SHG-2026-0705 Urgent
Cargo Damage Claim: BK-SHG-NBO-10492 Department: Billing & Claims
"An official Cargo Claim Notice has been submitted for booking reference: BK-SHG-NBO-10492... This ticket has been opened automatically as part of our Legal Claims Management Protocol."

If you disagree with an invoice (e.g., extra detention charges), follow this specific protocol to avoid payment penalties.

  1. Do NOT ignore the invoice. Unpaid invoices block cargo release.
  2. Pay the Undisputed Amount: If the base freight is correct but a surcharge is wrong, pay the freight immediately to clear the B/L block.
  3. Raise a "Billing" Ticket: Select category "Billing" and attach evidence (e.g. email confirming free time waiver).
  4. Escalation: If unresolved within 3 days, reply to the ticket typing "Request Manager Escalation" to trigger an administrative review by the Head of Finance.
