After successfully logging in, you'll be on your policy overview or home screen. Now, it's time to find your active claim.
- 3.1 Look for 'Claims' or 'Claims & Roadside Help': On the main navigation menu within the app (often found at the bottom or accessible via a hamburger menu in the top corner), look for an option clearly labeled "Claims" or "Claims & Roadside Help."
- 3.2 Tap to Enter: Select this option to go to your claims center.
Step 4: Select Your Specific Claim
If you have multiple policies or past claims, you'll need to identify the correct claim for which you want to view the estimate.

Once you've viewed your estimate, it's important to understand what it means and what actions you might need to take.
