Jun 11, 2012 | Posted by Insurance-Canada.ca

Toronto, Ontario (June 11, 2012) – Travelers Canada announces that Travelers Guarantee Company of Canada is changing its name to Travelers Insurance Company of Canada.

How to submit an insurance claim with Travelers Insurance

If you've never filed an insurance claim before, the process may seem a little intimidating at first. Thankfully, the team at Travelers Canada has made it incredibly easy for their customers to submit a claim. All you need to do is follow Travelers' five-step process:

Step #1 — Contact the Travelers Canada claims team or your insurance broker

If you need to submit a claim with Travelers Canada, the first thing that you should do is contact their claims team. You can contact their team by calling 800-661-5522. Make sure that you have the following information ready before you call:

• Police report
• Necessary information of all parties involved (names, contact information, insurance information, etc.)
• Witness information
• Photos of the scene and the damage (if possible)

Step #2 — Wait until your insurance adjustor contacts you

Your claim adjuster will contact you to confirm all of the necessary details relating to your claim. Your claim adjuster will also allow you to ask any questions you may have about the remainder of the process.

Step #3 — Complete the necessary forms

Afterward, you'll receive a letter from the Travelers Canada team that includes important information about the remainder of the process and forms that you'll need to fill out. Generally, the sooner you fill out and return the forms, the sooner the Travelers Canada team will be able to assess your claim.

Step #4 — Travelers Canada determines the cost of the repairs and the value of your property/car

For auto insurance claims, you'll need to take your vehicle to a Travelers Canada-approved auto repair facility. Doing this will ensure that you don't need to get any additional estimates.

For home insurance claims, all you need to do is protect your property from further damage and work closely with your insurance adjuster.

Step #5 — Travelers Canada pays your settlement

For auto insurance settlements, you'll work with the approved auto repair facility to repair your vehicle and (if it's included in your policy) set up a rental car. You then have the option to:

• Get paid directly from Travelers Canada
• Have Travelers Canada pay the auto repair facility
• Have Travelers Canada issue a co-payable cheque

Once the repairs have been made, you've completed the claim process for your car.

For home insurance settlements, your insurance adjuster will help you quantify the damages. Travelers Insurance will then issue a check for the repairs.

Once you've received your money, you've officially wrapped up the claim process for your home.

Travelers Canada

1-800-268-5371

Travelers Insurance was formed in 2009, when the St. Paul Fire and Marine insurance company merged with Travelers Guarantee company of Canada. The first half of the partnership has operated in Canada since 1928, giving the current incarnation some deep roots. And those roots spread right across the country.

With approximately 1,700 employees working in cities all over Canada, Travelers Insurance offers coast-to-coast service. The company also operates in the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Brazil.

In order to take out an insurance policy with Travelers Insurance, an individual must go through a broker. The insurer itself does not deal directly with individuals, though they do offer direct customer service online or by phone. Travelers Insurance prides itself on providing the best coverage solutions for its clients, while working alongside brokers allows it to best meet that objective.

Underwriting is a focus of the company, which conducts painstaking analysis of key information to establish a realistic level of risk for every policy. This dedication is meant to leave every client with the proper coverage at a price that accurately reflects their likelihood of making a claim.

These policies help to fulfill Travelers Insurance’s three tenants of underwriting, risk control and claims services.

What does Travelers cover?

Travelers Insurance helps Canadians protect nearly all of their most valuable possessions. Coverages on offer include:

• Auto insurance:   Coverage is available for countless types of vehicles, including personal vehicles, classic cars, motorhomes and recreational toys, like 4-wheelers and snowmobiles.
• Home insurance :  Policies are available for homeowners, condo owners, renters, seasonal properties and others.
• Boat insurance :  Both damage and liability is offered for various types of watercraft.
• Group insurance:   Discounts are available to members of various businesses, unions and alumni associations.
• Commercial insurance:   Business owners with commercial property can count on Travelers Insurance to cover their company.

Ways to save with Travelers

Travelers Insurance offers policyholders numerous ways to save. Discounts for auto insurance are available to those who have completed driver’s education, those with a recent history of clean driving, those insuring multiple vehicles or those with a child attending college or university.

Homeowners are also eligible to save by meeting any number of criteria. Policyholders 45 or older are eligible to save, as are homeowners with alarm systems installed, or households with all non-smokers. Homeowners that have not filed a claim for three years will also receive a discount.

Bundling is another way to save with Travelers Insurance. If a client protects both their vehicle and home with the insurer, they will receive discounts on both policies.
