Travelers Assisting Hurricane Ike Victims in Texas

To help ease the recovery process for customers living on the Texas coast, Travelers will offer payment relief to customers impacted by Hurricane Ike through its Disaster Relief Billing Plan.

By implementing the Disaster Relief Billing Plan, Travelers will continue to insure impacted policyholders who are temporarily unable to make insurance payments. Disaster Relief Billing is available for those who reside in counties designated as disaster areas, sustained hurricane damage to their property, or were otherwise affected by the hurricane.

“Our primary concern is with the well-being of the families living on the Texas coast,” said Marlyss Gage, senior vice president for Travelers Enterprise Underwriting. “We hope that offering a Disaster Relief Billing Plan takes one thing off of the minds of individuals who are focused on getting their lives back to normal as quickly as possible.”

Customers can also work out temporary payment arrangements by contacting their Travelers insurance representative or independent agent. Travelers business insurance customers can call 800.252.2268 for assistance, and Travelers personal insurance customers can call 877.872.4708.
