RACT Insurance is urging all policy holders affected by the heavy rain overnight in
southern Tasmania to call 13 27 22 to lodge a claim as soon as possible.

RACT Insurance CEO Trent Sayers said the organisation was doing everything it could
to make the process as simple as possible for those affected.

“The sooner customers lodge their claims, the sooner we can go about assessing and
fixing the damage caused by the storms,” Mr Sayers said.

“As soon as it is safe to do so, we will have staff on the ground in the affected areas to
help assess the damage to policy holders’ properties.

“Resources are currently being mobilised in order to deal with this event.”

With a number of claims already lodged, Mr Sayers said he expected this number to rise
significantly once the full extent of the storm had become clear.

“It is still unclear exactly how many homes and properties have been damaged,” Mr
Sayers said.

“We urge anyone affected to call us as soon as possible.”

People who think their property may be unsafe due to storm damage are encouraged to
contact RACT Insurance on 13 27 22.
