COVID-19 updates
We value your partnership today, tomorrow and beyond.
If you follow us on Facebook or LinkedIn, you may have seen our “We love independent agents” video or our video message on “Uniting together.” UFG employees from across the company came together to showcase our appreciation—and dedication—to our agents in the video.
In case you missed it, we sent an email last week to update you on premium refund checks, discuss InsurPay payment options for claimants, touch on no-touch claims (pun intended) and remind you about Photolink, a simple mobile app for policyholders. We have more to share with you today.
Profit sharing advance payment
We are providing an opt-in, one-time payment advance on your 2020 profit sharing. The amount of the advance, if you choose to participate, will be 20% of your 2019 profit sharing amount. This accelerated payment will be made by the end of May 2020. We notified agency designees of this last week. For more information, read here.P&C Connections
