If you have signed up for automatic premium payments using your TrueEarnings® Card from Costco and American Express, please read this important announcement.

The AmEx co-brand card relationship with Costco is ending. As a result, starting on June 20, 2016, your TrueEarnings® Card from Costco and American Express cannot be used for premium payments to Protective. Any scheduled premium payments that are set to occur on or after June 20, 2016, will be canceled by American Express.

Ensure your recurring premium payments continue without interruption by providing new credit card information before June 20, 2016. See instructions below on how to update your payment. If you have questions call 1-844-740-5433 and select Option 4.

Sincerely,
