Will Amwest continue to service the existing business?
No. No later than July 6, 2001, all bonds are cancelled and Amwest accepts no liability for claims arising after that date. Some bonds may have another insurer, commonly referred to as a co-surety associated with the bond. In such instances, you will want to check your bond to identify the co-surety, if any. If a co-surety is listed, you can refer to this website for further information including how to make the necessary contact. Under the Special Deputy Liquidator’s oversight, Amwest continues to maintain its claim files. Question: No one has called me back and can I send a fax a letter to Claimant Services? Answer: Amwest has been trying to get back to everyone who has left a message. Due to the extensive phone calls generated because of the size of the liquidation and the number of persons effected, please allow a day or two for someone to get back to you. Feel free to fax your inquiry to Claimant Services at 818-871-2013, call us at our toll free telephone number: (866) 789-8119,C
