Response team arrives in Redcliffe

The RACQ’s mobile centre has arrived in Redcliffe today to help members affected by the recent floods.

It has been set-up at Redcliffe Showgrounds, via Scarborough Rd, and will be open 8.30am-5pm daily, including over the weekend.

RACQ staff will be on hand to discuss claims, the process and help members with inquiries. A similar centre has been set-up in Goodna.

General Manager Claims Trent Sayers said as at 8am today (March 10), RACQ had received more than 11,500 claims including 9305 for homes and 2220 for vehicles.

Difficult time

“Moreton Bay and northern Brisbane suburbs were hardest hit, with almost 4000 property and motor vehicle claims received in those communities alone,” he said.

“We expect claims will continue to flow through as people assess the damage and we want to be there for our members to support them through this difficult time.

“We’re continuing to provide safety checks, emergency payments, temporary accommodation, insurance advice and tailored disaster relief packages to bank members

Members can also continue to lodge their claims online or call us on 13 72 02.
