Insurance company Allstate is offering its U.S. customers a 15 per cent discount on their bills for April and May as most of the country finds itself in some sort of lockdown due to COVID-19. Allstate, Esurance and Encompass customers in the United States can expect a 15 per cent rebate on their bills for April and May. Canadian customers don't qualify for the program, but the company's Canadian division say they are working on rolling out a similar initiative in the coming days. "Given an unprecedented decline in driving, customers will receive a Shelter-in-Place Payback of more than $600 million over the next two months," CEO Tom Wilson said. "U.S. residents can get the free identity protection product through Dec. 31, 2020, regardless of whether they are already Allstate customers, by signing up in April or May," the company said.
