Which Direct Auto Department Should You Contact?

• Policy service: Call customer service for coverage questions, adding or removing a vehicle or driver, lienholder information, address changes and renewal help.
• Billing and payments: Use customer service, QuickPay, MyAccount, the mobile app or a local Direct Auto location.
• New accident claim: Call the claims number and press 2, or report the claim through MyAccount.
• Existing claim: Call the claims number and press 1, contact the assigned claims representative or check the Claims Center in MyAccount.
• Roadside emergency: Eligible roadside-plan customers should call the dedicated roadside-assistance number.
• Policy cancellation: Contact customer service or a local agent. Written requests can also be sent using Direct Auto’s published instructions.

• Complaint: Start with the department responsible for the policy, payment, claim or roadside request and ask for a case number.

Direct Auto Payments and MyAccount Help

Direct Auto customers can make payments through MyAccount, QuickPay, the mobile app, customer service or a local Direct Auto location. MyAccount may also be used to:

• View upcoming payments
• Make an online payment
• Manage AutoPay
• Download an insurance identification card
• Review policy documents
• Add or remove eligible vehicles and drivers
• Report or monitor a claim
• Request reinstatement when eligible

If a payment is late, review the cancellation notice immediately. Grace periods, fees and reinstatement rules can differ by state and policy. Making a payment after a cancellation does not automatically guarantee that coverage has been reinstated.

Direct Auto Insurance Claims Number

Call 1-800-403-1077 for a Direct Auto claim. Press 2 to report a new claim or press 1 for an existing claim.

Direct Auto states that new claims can be reported 24 hours a day. Customers can also report a claim through MyAccount or the Direct Auto mobile app. Virtual claims assistance is available online 24/7.

Existing-claim telephone representatives are generally available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Direct Auto publishes broader weekday hours for live claims chat, but availability can vary.

Information to Have When Reporting a Claim

• Your policy number
• The date, time and location of the accident or loss
• Police report information, when applicable
• Names and contact details for drivers, passengers and witnesses
• Vehicle year, make, model, color and license plate
• Vehicle identification number, if available
• A description of the damage
• The vehicle’s current location
• Photographs or video that can be preserved safely
• Insurance and vehicle information for other drivers

If anyone is injured, traffic is obstructed, a vehicle is in a dangerous location or there is another immediate emergency, call 911 first. Do not put yourself at risk to collect photographs or information.

Checking an Existing Claim

To check an existing claim, have the claim number and assigned representative’s name or extension ready. Customers can:

• Call 1-800-403-1077 and press 1
• Contact the assigned claims representative directly
• Open the Claims Center in MyAccount
• Use Direct Auto’s online claims chat

Keep copies of estimates, repair documents, rental records, receipts, emails and prior claim correspondence. A claim submission does not guarantee payment. Coverage, deductibles, exclusions and settlement decisions are controlled by the applicable policy and circumstances of the loss.

Direct Auto Roadside Assistance

Customers enrolled in Direct Auto’s roadside-assistance plan can call 1-877-756-6637 or request help through the Direct Auto mobile app. Roadside requests are accepted 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Depending on the plan and circumstances, roadside services may include:

• Emergency towing
• Flat-tire changes using an available spare
• Battery jump-starts
• Vehicle lockout assistance
• Fuel or essential-fluid delivery
• Limited mechanical assistance

Ask the dispatcher to confirm coverage, towing distance, possible charges, destination and estimated arrival time. Roadside assistance is an optional product and should not be assumed to be included with every Direct Auto insurance policy.

How to Cancel a Direct Auto Insurance Policy

Direct Auto lists several ways to request cancellation:

• Call customer service at 1-877-463-4732
• Visit a local Direct Auto location and sign a cancellation request
• Email a written request to service@directauto.com
• Fax a signed written request to 1-877-622-7338

A written cancellation request should include the policyholder’s full name, policy number, address, date of birth, requested cancellation date and signature when required. Ask Direct Auto to confirm the effective cancellation date and whether a remaining balance, cancellation fee or refund applies.

Direct Auto Complaints and Escalation

For a billing, policy or account complaint, begin with customer service at 1-877-463-4732. For a claim complaint, contact the assigned claims representative or call 1-800-403-1077.

When reporting a complaint:

1. Explain whether the issue concerns billing, underwriting, policy service, cancellation, roadside assistance or a claim.
2. Provide a concise timeline with the relevant dates.
3. Give only the policy or claim information needed to locate the account.
4. Describe previous attempts to resolve the problem.
5. Ask for a supervisor or specialized department when appropriate.
6. Request a complaint or reference number.
7. Clearly state the resolution you are requesting.
8. Keep copies of all correspondence and supporting records.

If an insurance issue remains unresolved after contacting Direct Auto, consumers can use the National Association of Insurance Commissioners directory to locate their state insurance department and its complaint process. State insurance departments regulate insurance matters; public review websites and the Better Business Bureau are not substitutes for an insurance regulator.

Direct Auto Privacy and Account Security

Do not post or send sensitive insurance information through public comments, social media or an unverified website. Protect:

• Your complete policy or claim number
• Date of birth
• Driver’s-license information
• Vehicle identification number
• Bank-account or payment-card information
• MyAccount password
• One-time security codes
• Medical or accident documents

Direct Auto publishes additional information in its online privacy statement. Use the official website, mobile app or a verified number from your policy documents when discussing private account information.

Direct Auto Scam Warning

Be cautious if a caller, text message or email:

• Demands payment by gift card, cryptocurrency or wire transfer
• Requests your MyAccount password or security code
• Threatens immediate arrest or vehicle seizure
• Promises a claim settlement in exchange for an advance fee
• Uses a misspelled or unfamiliar website address
• Requests remote access to your telephone or computer
• Asks you to send claim or policy documents to an unverified address

If a communication appears suspicious, end the interaction and contact Direct Auto through DirectAuto.com, the official app or a telephone number printed on your policy documents.

Direct Auto Insurance Customer Service Reviews

CustomerServiceNumbers.com welcomes firsthand reviews of Direct Auto policy service, payments, claims, roadside assistance, cancellations and complaint handling.

When leaving a review, identify the general service involved, approximate date, contact method, response time and outcome. Do not publish policy numbers, claim numbers, dates of birth, addresses, VINs, telephone numbers, financial information or medical records.

A public review does not file a claim, cancel a policy, stop AutoPay, correct an account or submit a formal insurance complaint. Contact Direct Auto directly for action on an active policy or claim.
