Reporting A Claim
Rapid settlement of a claim begins with a timely report to us of a loss to your automobile or home. You can report the loss to American Commerce Insurance Company directly at:
1-877-ACI-LOSS
(1-877-224-5677)
Available 24 hours a day/365 days a year
This service is available to our American Commerce insured customers, as well as anyone else involved in an incident with one of our American Commerce insureds.
During the claim report process, a professional, skilled claim representative will gather full detailed information on your claim and enter it electronically into our system. The claim report should take only 10-15 minutes. At the end of the report, you will be provided with the following information:
- Your file number
- Your claim adjuster's name and telephone extension
- Answers to any general questions that you may have
Additionally, if your claim is for damage to your auto and you have chosen certain coverages, at the end of the telephone call you will have the following information:
- An assignment of an American Commerce appraiser to inspect your vehicle and write an appraisal of damage. This appraisal can be done at your home, work or repair facility.
- We will provide you with names of preferred rental companies and assistance in arranging for a comparable substitute vehicle while yours is being repaired.
