NATIONAL GENERAL HAIL CLAIM IN PHOENIX? START WITH THE RIGHT NUMBER
Call National General at 1-800-468-3466 or report online, and use the storm date: October 20, 2026 for the East Valley, October 21 for north Phoenix and Glendale. If your policy number begins with INT60 or IM, National General lists a different claims line: 1-800-848-1777. Its claims site also offers chat in Spanish. Check that your policy has comprehensive coverage, because hail falls under it. National General is an Allstate company, but it’s a separate insurer, and its claims run through National General. Arizona law (A.R.S. § 20-468) lets you choose any shop. Qualifying claims at our Phoenix shop are $0 out of pocket: National General pays the repair, and we cover the first $1,000 of your deductible.
The Longer Answer
THREE THINGS TO CHECK BEFORE YOU CALL
Why the name matters. National General says its insurance is "underwritten by individual carriers in the National General Group" and that each one "is solely responsible for its own products, rates and claims." So the company name printed on your policy is the one handling your claim. Reading it first avoids a call to the wrong line.
Not the same as two similar names. National General isn’t Nationwide, and it isn’t The General. If you’re unsure which you have, the card will say.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOU REPORT IT
Photos help. National General’s claims pages ask for photos, and they speed things up. For hail, shoot the hood, roof and trunk from a low angle in daylight, so the dents show.
The estimate is a starting number. A quick estimate prices what can be seen. Under PDR lights we count every dent, panel by panel, and send your adjuster a supplement with photos for anything missed. A.A.C. R20-6-801(H)(5) requires an insurer’s estimate to be an amount that can reasonably be expected to repair the car properly, with a copy to you.
You pick the shop. You open the claim; we handle the documentation and the correspondence on the repair. On qualifying claims from the October 20–21, 2026 storms we cover the first $1,000 of your deductible; above that, case by case, and we do our best. You drive one of our 30+ free Phoenix loaners, and se habla español at (602) 935-6008. See hail repair in Phoenix for prices and pickup.
No comprehensive? Then the claim won’t pay for hail, but a cash repair may still make sense: $75–$200 per dent for dents up to about half-dollar size; larger ones are priced after inspection.
