Your policy also comes with up to $1,000 of coverage for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred as a result of restoring your identity. Additional amounts of coverage are available by adding the Coverage Plus Endorsement to your policy. Contact your Hastings Mutual agent to add this valuable endorsement. Refer to your coverage form for details.
More than two dozen services are part of our protection coverage, including:
We’ll help you recover your personal and financial identification, from new documents to notifying the places you do business with. You’ll also receive a year of free credit monitoring, and we’ll search more than 1,000 public databases for signs of fraud in your name.
Work with a fraud specialist before something goes wrong. Put a free fraud alert on your credit file and take other preventative measures if necessary.
A child’s identity can be at risk just as easily as an adult’s identity can be in danger. A fraud specialist can suppress a child’s credit file so it isn’t misused — or help repair the file if fraud has already taken place.
Place a 12-month fraud alert on the credit file of active-duty military personnel, so you know if something is wrong. On-demand access to a fraud specialist is also available to an authorized spouse or other family members.
Fraud isn’t always financial. Work with a fraud specialist to clear up fraudulent insurance claims and/or false medical services obtained in your name. This also includes a year of active follow-up.
Even after your spouse’s death, fraud can still happen. A fraud specialist can protect against misuse of your spouse’s identity and reduce the risk for you on financial and other accounts held jointly.
You’re making a lot of changes when you move to a new home. Protect your financial information and your identity records during the move, and make sure you have access to the money and documentation you need when crossing a border or just starting a new life.
A flood, earthquake, hurricane, tornado, or fire can do more than destroy your home — they can damage your identity and make it hard for you to get back to normal. A fraud specialist can help you keep in communication with family, friends, and others that support you.
Marriage, and divorce, are significant changes that touch on almost every aspect of your life. Reduce the risk of identity theft during these life-altering times with support from a fraud specialist. Manage your personal identification and your financial records to share a life together or start something different.
Your identity can be at risk whenever you travel, especially if it is to a foreign country. If your passport, credit cards, or other critical documents are lost or stole, a specialist can help you recover from your loss. You can also receive a travel preparedness package and follow up on your journey once you have returned home.
