QUANTUM ALLIANCE: Effective November 2016
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Company underwrites all business submitted. Final acceptability is determined after a complete review of the submitted information. Since it is impossible to cover every aspect that might affect the acceptance of a risk, the Company must remain the final authority in the acceptance or continuation of any risk. As part of this process, the Company will make every effort to verify all submitted information, including proof for requested discounts.
QUOTING NEW BUSINESS
Please refer to Quantum's web based rating and policy issuance software, the Quantum web rater or a comparative rating system. All quotes submitted as new business applications.
AGENT / PRODUCER DUTIES
The Agent's duty to the insured includes explaining: ? UM/UIM, PIP, Comprehensive and Collision coverages cannot be bound until the Agent has physically inspected all vehicles this coverage pertains to. Photos must be submitted at the time of binding. ? Photos are required for vehicles with pre-existing damages or carrying UM/UIM, PIP, Comprehensive and Collision coverages within 24 hours of binding the policy. ? All regular operators who have access to the covered vehicles must be listed on the policy. ? All members of the household age 14 or older who are not eligible for coverage must be listed on the policy as an excluded driver. ? There is no coverage under this policy for an excluded operator driving a listed vehicle. ? The policy is a contract between the insured and Quantum General Agency /Redpoint County Mutual Insurance Company and the Insured. The policy declaration contains the full terms of the agreement. ? A quote does not bind Quantum General Agency/ County Mutual Insurance Company to a rate or coverage. ? This policy version contains mandatory endorsements that modify the Texas Auto Policy language. It is the agent's responsibility to explain these mandatory endorsements to the named insured and have them sign the endorsement waiver verifying that they have been advised of the endorsements and they agree to the terms of these endorsements. ? The insured should read the policy and contact their agent with questions. ? Discounts and surcharges may apply to this program. ? The insured has options in purchasing coverage's, limits and deductibles. ? All claims are to be called in directly to Quantum Alliance by the insured.
AGENT COMMISSIONS
In general, your commission statement will reflect all transactions processed for the 1st through the end of each accounting period. For questions regarding your commission or commission statement, please contact our office at 855.935.1233.
MATERIAL MISREPRESENTATION OF RISK
Section 705.004 of the Texas Insurance Code recognizes the named insured's responsibility and obligation to truthfully and completely fill out the application for insurance. Material Misrepresentation on the application or endorsement request may affect the named insured's eligibility to receive benefits from the insurance contract. The Company may also avoid payment of a claim on a policy if material misrepresentation has occurred.
SEVERE WEATHER PROCEDURES ("WATCH" OR "WARNING")
Whenever the National Weather Service issues a hurricane, tornado, hail, flood or other severe weather watch or warning and the storm is within 100 miles of the location of the proposed risk, coverage acceptance is limited as follows:
? No new business policies may be written or bound that require Physical Damage. ? Physical damage may not be endorsed onto an existing policy. ? Renewals of the Company's expiring policies may be written in the normal manner providing there is no increase in
exposure to the Company. ? Normal binding authority will resume after the watch and/or warning is lifted by the National Weather Service,
providing there is no forecast of an imminent reoccurrence. ? Applications with an effective date which will violate the prohibitions listed above will be rejected and no coverage will
have existed.
