Your agent is not the place to file a claim. Google your insurance carrier and they will have a number to call in claims. Be aware that you will more than likely have a hurricane deductible. Make sure it is in your best interest to file a claim...

Definately call your carrier direct if you know your deductible. Going through the agency just creates more delay and you dont get the detailed instructions the carrier is going to give and you dont get to relay the damage first hand.

FWIW, wick is on it 100%, carrier much prefers the claim go directly to them. Helps in a big way with claim triage and assignements

Mine sent emails & Facebook messages out to all customers saying their office phone lines & internet are down. Gave us cell # and email address to try. Check and see if the agent has a website or FB page with alternate contact info.
