Union Assurance provides roadside assistance for female policyholders

Union Assurance General (UAG) will work with Associated Motorways (Pvt) Ltd (AMW) to provide UAG female policyholders roadside assistance in the event of a vehicle breakdown or any type of car trouble they may encounter be it a flat tyre, dead battery or even if you've locked your keys in your vehicle.

UAG believes this campaign to be a one of a kind initiative that is in line with its overall ethos of building and delivering transparency, respectfulness and convenience to all stakeholders. AMW provides this islandwide service for a fee. However, having arrived at an agreement with them, UAG will offer this service at no charge to selected policyholders.

"We want to be at the forefront in bringing about value added services to customers. Female drivers are likely to be more vulnerable in unforeseen situations that involve vehicle breakdowns and flat tyres, therefore, we feel it is perfectly catered to assist them," said Manager, Marketing, UAG, Rajiv David.

The services offered include a 24-hour service hotline, 365 days of the year, emergency fuel delivery with the customer only having to pay the cost of the fuel (either diesel or petrol), unlimited technical advice hotline and on the spot minor mechanical repairs.

"We do our utmost to ensure the best possible service is offered to clients and we are excited about joining UAG in this project," said Deputy General Manager - Group Marketing and Communication, Associated Motorways, Mrs. Iroshini Munasinghe.

AMW is under the management of Al-Futtaim Engineering, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Al-Futtaim group in the UAE.

UAG's General Manger - Marketing and Distribution, Nihal Handunge said, "Union Assurance General is now operating on an entirely new stratum with Canada based Fairfax Asia Limited."
