Insurance provider canceled

Weston Property & Casualty Insurance Company was put into receivership for liquidation on Aug. 8. Policies currently insured by Weston, including those in Texas, will be canceled effective Sept. 7, according to the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA).

TWIA reports it is, however, committed to working with insurance agents and Weston policyholders who meet TWIA’s eligibility requirements to help them obtain windstorm coverage as quickly as possible.

Weston policyholders are deemed to have been denied coverage by a private market carrier because of the cancellation of their coverage. No additional declination is required.

TWIA Policy Services is offering additional information and help for insurance agents assisting policyholders in this transition. Insurance agents can contact TWIA’s Weston Policy Support Team at (800) 231-5360 or agentservices@twia.org.
