2015 Aoc Week 3 Assessment (8/1/15)

After a list is scrubbed, the last day you can use it before you need to scrub it again is Saturday. This is because Sunday is the first day of the week, and typically, lists are scrubbed at the end of the week to prepare for the upcoming week. Therefore, Saturday is the final day to utilize the list before it needs to be scrubbed again on Sunday.

All of the above property endorsements would require the collection of Trailing Documents (T-Docs). When changing the "Roof Type," the insurance company would need to collect T-Docs to verify the new roof type and assess any changes in risk. Similarly, when changing "Protective Devices" to a centrally monitored alarm, T-Docs would be necessary to confirm the installation and effectiveness of the new alarm system. Lastly, changing the "Square Footage" of a property would also require T-Docs to validate the updated size and adjust the coverage accordingly.

The correct answer is Commercial Agent. This is the system used to quote a commercial policy.

To change a prospect or customer's status to DNS, you would go to the Household View. This view allows you to manage and update information related to individual households, including their status. The other options listed, such as Policy View, Alliance, and DPRS, may have different functionalities but are not specifically designed for changing a customer's status to DNS.

Completing an insurance review allows the insurance agent to assess the client's current coverage and identify any gaps or areas where additional coverage may be needed. This helps build trust and credibility with the client, increasing the chances of closing a sale. Asking for referrals is another effective way to increase the close ratio as it allows the agent to tap into the client's network of friends, family, and colleagues who may also be in need of insurance. Referrals are more likely to convert into sales as they come with a higher level of trust and recommendation. Therefore, completing an insurance review and asking for referrals can contribute to a 30% increase in the close ratio.

To handle a CAT (Catastrophe) claim, the correct answer is to call 1-800-54-STORM. This phone number is likely a dedicated line specifically for reporting claims related to storm damage or other catastrophic events. By calling this number, the claimant can quickly and efficiently report their claim and receive the necessary assistance and support from the insurance company. The other options, such as using the "Report a Claim" link or calling 1-800-Allstate, may be valid for general claims but may not be the most appropriate for handling a CAT claim.

Re-running a prospect's Consumer Report (CR) is necessary in cases where there are significant changes in their personal information, such as a changed last name or social security number. However, quoting them last week and wanting to ensure an accurate quote is not a valid reason to re-run the CR, as it does not involve any changes in personal information. The CR is used to assess an individual's creditworthiness and background, so unless there are changes in their personal information, it is not necessary to re-run it for the purpose of providing an accurate quote.

All of the above reports are used to accurately quote a prospect. A Consumer Report provides information about the individual's credit history, which is important in determining their financial stability and ability to make payments. LIS (Loss Information System) report provides data on any previous insurance claims made by the prospect, helping to assess their risk profile. MVR (Motor Vehicle Report) provides information about the prospect's driving history, including any traffic violations or accidents, which is crucial in determining their risk as a driver. By considering all of these reports, insurers can accurately assess the prospect's risk and provide an appropriate quote.

The recommended allotted amount of time to be given to bank deposits after remittance is 24 hours. This means that after a remittance is made, it is recommended to wait for 24 hours before expecting the funds to be deposited into the bank account. This allows for the necessary processing and verification procedures to be completed by the bank before the funds are made available.

Contacting a Claims Advocate is an acceptable way to report a claim for a customer. This option allows the customer to directly communicate with a claims advocate who can assist them in the claims process. The other options, such as using "Report a Claim" on Household or Policy View or calling 1-800-Allstate, are also acceptable methods of reporting a claim. Therefore, the correct answer is "None of the Above - all are acceptable."

The system used to quote Auto, Homeowners, Renters, Manufactured Homes, and Landlord Package policies is Alliance.

To locate the "DNS Scrubbing" tool, you can either use the Quick Link for DNS or search for the tool directly by typing "DNS Scrubbing" in the search bar.

When an agency is on compliance review, all of the mentioned activities are not allowed. Opening a satellite office, purchasing a book of business, and mentoring new agency owners are all prohibited during this time.

To maintain the integrity of the review, these activities are restricted to prevent any potential violations or conflicts of interest.

All of these options will lead you to the claims advocate you are looking for.
