In 1919, a Pennsylvania farmer’s association founded our company to

provide farm-related workers’ compensation insurance to its members.

Today, we do business in nine states, including a broad variety of

business insurance and personal auto and homeowners insurance.

And, we changed from an agricultural focus to a service-economy

focus. True to our roots, we’re still a mutual insurance company,

which means that we operate for the benefit of our policyholders.

Headquartered in Harrisburg, PA, we are a financially sound company

with an A.M. Best Financial Strength Rating of A- (Excellent).

And we’ve always sold through independent agents, focusing on

helping our agents grow.

Focusedon helping our agents grow

We’re a regional company that delivers our products

only through independent agents. So we’re always

focused on helping our agents grow. From competitive

products and pricing to real-time, fast online quoting.

From attractive commission and profit-sharing programs

to local presence and outstanding claims service.

Our Underwriting Philosophy

Penn National Insurance wishes to maintain a long-term,

stable relationship with the personal lines accounts that you

present to us. Our underwriting philosophy is predicated on

writing and retaining quality risks that consistently produce

profitable results.

Using predictive modeling, our underwriting system applies

a myriad of factors and different characteristics to accurately

and fairly rate auto and homeowners risks in order to capture

a broader market while remaining profitable.

15 years of customer satisfaction research confirms an amazingly high satisfaction rate. We can’t always say to claimants, “Relax, you’re covered.” Sometimes we have to tell people that their loss isn’t covered. Our consistently high customer satisfaction results show that whether we’re delivering good or bad news, we’re doing it promptly and politely and with genuine concern and empathy.

Here are just a few of the comments that your customers

write about our claim services:

“ Service was excellent and personnel were very cooperative. Thanks for your help!”

“ Our adjuster was very courteous and pleasant to deal with. He was very detailed in his explanations and he really made our loss process as comfortable and painlessly simple as possible. We have recommended Penn National Insurance to our family and friends as an excellent company to deal with.”

“ During my 40 years of driving, I’ve had four claims including this one. I must say I never experienced a more courteous, professional and friendly customer service department.”

“ I was especially appreciative how the claims adjuster went the extra mile to facilitate my claim.”

“ Excellent service. One phone call and ten minutes later my windshield replacement was completely scheduled. All I had to do was show up for the appointment.”

Prompt.Painless.

Convenience. Service.We don’t outsource our call center a thousand miles or a continent away from our base of operation. If you need to talk with us, our customer support representatives are available from 8 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. ET, M-F, to offer our agents and policyholders knowledgeable, courteous and prompt answers.

Our claims service is second to none.

We sell a product that customers hope they never use.

If they do have to use it, they interact with us during a time of

terrible crisis. A car crash. A home burglary. A fire. Our product

is a legal contract, promising to cover some types of losses, but

not all losses. It can be tough explaining what’s covered and

what’s not, when the customer is suffering through a crisis.

We must stick to the terms of the legal contract of insurance.

But keep the customers happy at the same time.

High Customer Satisfaction Scores
