New York Personal Auto Customer Relief Refund

​​​​With social distancing and stay-at-home orders, we’re seeing fewer drivers on the road which means a reduction in accidents. With this in mind, last month we announced the Safeco Personal Auto Customer Relief Refund . In addition, New York personal auto customers who purchase a Safeco new business private passenger auto policy between May 1 and May 31, 2020 will also receive a 15% refund on one month’s premium.

Qualifications and details for new business personal auto customers bound between May 1 and May 31, 2020:

  • This refund only applies to private passenger policies. Specialty vehicles, motorcycles, and comprehensive-only policies are excluded.
  • The policy must be both bound as new business and have an effective date between May 1 and May 31, 2020. The policy must be in-force through June 1, 2020.
