In a financial bind due to employment interruptions caused by COVID-19? You're not alone. As an independent insurance agency we connect our customers to the insurance company that best suits their needs. Consequently, we work with all sorts of different companies simultaneously. To make this easier on you, our customer, we've compiled all this information in one place - Our COVID-19 Resource Hub. This will be updated multiple times a week to ensure you're getting the most relevant information. However, you can always check in directly with your provider to verify potential avenues of assistance.
You may have seen the recent news that Allstate and American Family led the pack to begin giving percentage refunds on personal auto insurance policies. The rest of the industry is following this adjustment closely. In the two days since this announcement was made, we've seen our own companies, Travelers, Liberty Mutual, and Mercury Insurance, begin to implement a similar discount. We've seen even more of our companies allow substantial grace periods on late payments and a pledge to not suspend any insurance policies due to non-payment. This is changing EVERY DAY, so keep a close eye on how this affects you and feel free to check in with us with any further questions.
An important note about communication in this period of crisis; We, along with every other remotely functioning office, are handling all business over phone and email. If you have the ability, please try to do as much of your business via online portals. This request also applies to every insurance company we work with. We thank you IMMENSELY for your loyalty and patience. Please continue the tough work of social distancing and take care of your mind, body, and health alike.
Warmly,
The Barber Insurance Team
