NORTHBROOK, Ill., Oct. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Allstate (NYSE:ALL)
announced free lifetime roadside assistance membership to consumers
that call an Allstate agent or 1-888-Allstate. The promotion, "Shop
Less Get More," will run through the end of 2011 and includes
national advertisements featuring Dennis
Haysbert.
"All it takes is a call to an Allstate agent and individuals can
take advantage of a unique offer to increase their protection while
saving money," said Mark LaNeve,
executive vice president and chief marketing officer, Allstate
Insurance Company. "This is yet another way that Allstate is
demonstrating its commitment to reinventing auto insurance and
delivering value to consumers."
Good Hands Roadside Assistance, which Allstate introduced last
year, is the first free-to-join, pay-per-use, roadside assistance
service that is available to all drivers, not just Allstate
customers.
A member in need of roadside assistance can call 1-800-ALLSTATE
and receive access to a 24/7 nationwide network of reputable towing
companies. The program offers pre-negotiated, flat rates that
the average consumer may not be able to access without a
membership. Consumers with passenger cars or light trucks will pay
a flat rate of $75 for a tow up to 10
miles and $50 for other roadside
events such as service for a flat tire, a dead battery or keys
locked inside a car.
