WFI Insurance Review

The first thing to mention is that WFI has one of the longest histories of being an insurer in Australia, dating all the way back to 1919. I love the fact that they have locations all around Australia, with more than 170 local areas managers and 16 client service teams. This proves that WFI is really as professional as they say to be.

The greatest fact with their business insurance is that you can tailor it to fit your needs. I was impressed to see that a list of plans can be created including commercial plans, office plans, and contract works. I had a look at their commercial plan and learned that they involve coverage for events like employee theft, glass breakage, machinery breakdown and heap more. Additional benefits can also be taken like loss of rent, landscaping cost and demolition of debris.

WFI is one of the few insurers that offer farm insurance with a list of individual plans that can be customised to fit your needs. For example, the thing that I really liked is that there are products known as rural plan, livestock mortality and early bird crop. Basically, all aspects of your farm can be insured. In my opinion, being able to have a policy customised to fit your requirement is a great way to protect yourself from all the unpredictable changes Australia can experience.

Moving onto more personal insurance, WFI also have house, car and landlord insurance. Unlike traditional insurers, the thing that really stood out is that a range of different plans to choose from, including innovative ones like private plan and landlord plan. I learned that all sort of homes can be insured, including classic and standards.

I know knowing the amount you should insured for your contents and building can be tough. This is why I was so pleased to see that there are several calculators on WFI’s website that you can utilise to give you a better idea, so that you will be able to make a better decision.

When making claims, there are actually three types; general, motor and liability. The biggest difference between WFI and other insurers is that there is actually a web form that you can complete using your keyboard. This is something I have not seen before from other companies.

If WFI sounds like something you may be interested in, please do not hesitate to visit their website.

Volkswagen Insurance Review

Volkswagen Finance offers insurance products that can be considered effective for many Volkswagen drivers. A number of services are provided including loan and insurance, for both your car as well as the funding of it.

The dominant cover is motor insurance which protects the car itself. I think the biggest advantage for choosing Volkswagen Finance over other car insurers is the fact that you will be certain to get only quality parts to repair your Volkswagen vehicle. This can also be so that you can preserve the value of your car as well as push aside any risks that may make your warranty invalid. The next thing I was very glad about is that you can choose your own repairer, which means you will be able to make the first choice about what happens to your car.

If your car is ever stolen, one very convenient feature that impressed me is that fact that you will be able to keep driving even if your car is stolen by giving you a rental car at no extra cost. This is perfect for people that depend on their cars to do their day to day activities, including going to work.

I had a look at the limits of claims you can make and saw that emergency repairs go up to $500, personal effects up to $500 and emergency accommodation up to $400. I thought these amounts are beyond reasonable and would definitely let you drive in peace. To make your policy even better, I was glad to see optional benefits are available to be taken out like rental or loan, and protected no claim bonus.

Another important product to consider is loan protection. You can’t always guarantee that you will be able to pay back your loans which is why having a backup plan is so important. The levels available to be chosen in this cover include plans that include a mixture trauma, death, disability and involuntary unemployment. To my understanding, as soon as you suffer from any of the mentioned conditions, Volkswagen Finance will be able to provide you with money to help pay your car loan.

There are two levels of covers available for tyre and rim insurance. They are known as Standard Cover and Prestige Cover. I partially loved the Prestige cover because it offers up to $800 for tyre repair and replacements, up to $1400 for all claims. I thought this was a more than enough and would no doubt be able to keep your tyres in great condition no matter what happens.

Toyota Insurance Review

According to what I read about Toyota Insurance, they can provide you with a long range of personal and business insurance. They are part of the Toyota Group of Companies. The best part about them I that they operate throughout Australia to protect your car.

As you may expect their main product is car insurance. It was very interesting to see that you are given the option to choose either the agreed value or market value of your car. You will be covered for things like accidental loss, damage and liability for property damages, which I thought are all very essential things. Secondly, it is also interesting to see that you can pay your premiums monthly or annually, or alternatively, you can have it included in your Toyota Finance. I guess this is one of the biggest advantages for being with them.

Unlike other car insurers you need to take out additional roadside assistant if you want to be able to be rescued in the middle of the road. There are to levels of cover available; Roadside Assist and Roadside Assist PLUS. The latter one costs $90, which is very affordable and includes features like emergency fuel, changing of flat tyres, emergency rental vehicle, emergency parts supply, and many more. Seeing the amount of features, it can be seen as foolish to not take them out.

Financing your vehicle is important and I was excited to see that there are two types of insurance available for this; Finance Gap Insurance and Payment Protection Insurance. I was glad to see in the finance gap insurance that you have four options to choose from, depending on the amount of ‘gap’ and the additional expenses. The highest option includes $30,000 ‘gap’ and up to $4,000 of additional expenses. I felt the amount goes beyond enough and would definitely proof to be useful.

The main point of payment protection insurance is to offer you financial security in circumstances when you are unable to work. The payment you receive then can be used to pay for things like repayments, maintenance of your vehicle and other financial burdens. Again, there are four options, ranging from life cover to involuntary unemployment cover, or you may choose a combination of them.

If you are already a Toyota car owner and would like to see how they can help you in terms of your insurance needs, make sure you visit their website or ask about them in your closest dealer.

Resilium Insurance Review

The first thing I realised is that Resilium is a different type of insurance provider. They actually give you advice and then let you choose from a range of insurance products from a number of underwriters. According to their website some of the most common underwriters that you will be able to get policies from are GIO, CGU and NTI.

First of all, I was able to see that a list of business insurance offered, including:

  • Public liability insurance
  • Trade insurance
  • Fleet motor insurance
  • Farm insurance
  • Travel Insurance

In their personal lines, there is car insurance. It comes with several levels of cover such as comprehensive, platinum, third party fire and theft cover, and third party property damage only. Depending on your needs, some of the things to really point out in their comprehensive car insurance include new car replacement, choice of repairer, and options such as windscreen coverage and no claim discount.

If you have a caravan or trailer, you will be happy to know that they can also be insured. This includes having the contents inside covered as well of up to $500. Emergency repairs are included and if you are more than 100km away from your home, accommodation will be provided. Most importantly, claims can be accessed anytime of the day.

I was taken away by the amount of home and contents insurance products available. Included are classic, platinum, 55UP, investor and top strata residential. I decided to give the classic cover an overview and saw that it automatically covers for rain, flash floods, storms and rising rivers, which is uncommon from other insurers. There is also legal cover of up to $20,000,000. One of the things that I was unexpected to see is that if the cost to rebuild your home is more than the amount insured, you will be able to receive up to 25% of extra product with the Safety Net Home.

There are two types of boat insurance. They are essential boat insurance and comprehensive boat insurance. I think the one with the highest cover is Comprehensive and would therefore recommend that one to most people. Looking through the features I can confidentially say that it would be able to offer you a peace of mind with features like replacement and up to $5,000 for each rescue charged by a maritime rescue organisation.

To find more information about Resilim, it is suggested you check out their website and speak to one of their advisers.

Myer Insurance Review

Myer Insurance is a company that I found out to be bought to you by one of the biggest retailers in Australia partnered with QBE Insurance. As soon as I saw this I thought it was a good combination since they are both major brands in the country, meaning it will be something you can trust. At the time of writing this review, Myer Insurance offers three types of products.

I was not surprised to see that one of the products is car insurance. According to their website it seems that their most outstanding policy is their comprehensive plan. Having a quick glance through the outstanding features offered, I was glad to see that many of the essential things are covered. They include emergency repairs, lifetime repair, no claim bonus discount, and even a new car replacement for cars up to two years old. I was surprised to also see things like fatality cover, employers’ liability and child seat cover. In terms of the cooling period, it is only 21 days, which is very reasonable.

If a comprehensive plan is not for you, there are also Third party fire & theft, and Third party only. Both of these covers offer theft hire car, change of vehicle and uninsured motorist benefits of up to $5,000. In my opinion, these are more than enough for the average driver and would surely give them a peace of mind.

The second personal product offered is home insurance, including contents insurance and combined. In just an overview, some of the noteworthy features include new for old cover on most contents, motor burnouts, key and lock, identify theft of up to $5,000, as well as accommodation costs. If that is not enough, optional extras are also available.

There are two level of covers that you can choose from; Home cover or Home cover prestige. The highest cover, which is also the one I recommend, is Home cover prestige. The reason why I love this cover so much is that it includes coverage for accidental damage, which I think is very important as most loss are caused through this way. The claim limits are also much higher, for example the compensation for death is $10,000 for Home cover prestige and only $5,000 for Home cover.

For house owners that are renting, landlord insurance is something worth checking out. You will be covered for 13 events, which is very comforting to know, as well as building costs, external door locks and legal liability. To enhance your protection you can optionally get rent default and theft/vandalism by tenants.

Kmart Tyre and Auto Service Insurance Review

Kmart and Westfarmers Insurance have come together to bring car insurance at an affordable cost, known as Kmart Tyre and Auto Service Insurance. If you have been using Kmart to get quality tyres, it is time you extend yourself to also taking out their car insurance. Looking through their website I learned that you can keep your current rating, pay annually or monthly, have access to a 24-hour emergency claim, and interestingly, you can earn flybuys points on your policy.

A range of different policy choices can be chosen to fit the needs of your car and the amount of protection you are after.

Comprehensive offers the most complete protection. The advantages of this plan compared to the others is that it not only covers you from damages done to your car, but it also covers you from damaging you do to other cars or property, as well as protection against theft and fire, among many more. If you have a trailer, you can have it covered too without having to take out another policy, which I think is very handy.

Instead of just paying you, KTAS will also offer you replacement for groceries, baby capsules and child seats if they are damaged or stolen. This goes for your keys and locks too.

If you don’t think you need the highest protection, the next plan that I really recommend you to take out is Third party fire and theft. The reason why I was so overwhelmed by this cover is that it covers you from damage you do to other cars, as well from fire and theft. Did you know the maximum claim you will be able to receive for liabilities is up to $20,000,000.

Lastly, the lowest cover is known as Third party property damage. It only covers you from liabilities in the events if you accidentally damage someone else’s property. The downside to this policy however is that if your car is damaged in the process, you will need to pay for the cost for it to be repaired or replaced yourself. Even though this policy doesn’t offer everything, it still contains some very useful features.

For more information to how Kmart Tyres and Auto Service Insurance will be able to benefit your car further, feel free to take a look through their website. You will be able to read about making a claims and things of this nature which I thought was very easy.

Cashback Insurance Review

No one likes paying expensive car insurance, especially if you consider yourself a safe driver that hasn’t made any claims for over several years. The thing that stood out from Cashback Car Insurance is that they will refund 10% of your total premium aid over three years if you do not make any claims for that period. I though this is a great way to award drivers.

At first I found the website to be generally easy to use. You can choose the model of your car straight from their homepage and then receive an immediate quote. According to their website, there are no forms to fill out, even if you make a claim. In my opinion this is a great way to reduce the stress and burdens that may come with driving.

Secondly, you are able to pay monthly to help manage your finances better. If you can afford it, you can also pay yearly so that you can get all the bills out of your way. Not every company out there offers this option, and seeing that Cashback offers it is something to not take lightly.

I went through the product disclosure statement and found out that a number of things can be covered. The first thing that I was really overwhelmed to see is that the maximum legal liability that you can take out is $20,000,000. Other features include damages done to the car, personal effects, trailers, emergency transport and accommodation. The greatest thing is that you can get a new car replacement if your new car is damaged beyond repair in a total less within a certain period.

I was particularly glad to see that there are covers for loss or damage to the car. It covers for important events like fire, which is something I believe every policy should cover. I was also glad to see that the reasonable cost for towing and storage of the car will also be paid, meaning you will be able to get a further peace of mind.

If Cashback sounds like a desirable insurer, maybe because of the way they reward their drivers, it is time for you to head over to their website. You may perhaps try to get a quote and see how much money you will be able to save, and then calculate the amount you will be able to get a refund for if you don’t make any claims for three years.

Cashback Insurance has been rated 5 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

BT Insurance Review

Since the year 1969, BT has been providing financial services such as super, investments and insurance to Australians. This makes them one of the most trusted brands in the country. They are part of the BT Financial Group and Westpac Group. As seen on their website, most of their products relate to life and income insurance.

The most distinct product is life insurance. There was a list of all the features and benefits included for this product which I found to be very useful. The thing that stood out to me the most is that you can change and update your cover whenever you need. This means you can increase, as well as decrease, the level of your cover so that your policy will always suit your needs no matter what changes you go through. I think this is a very important feature to have because it gives you total control of your cover. Secondly, you are also guaranteed to be covered continuously, even after your term has expired.

I was taken away to see that the maximum percentage of your monthly income that you can claim back in their income protection insure is 80%. This is 5% higher than most insurers I have seen, which is something to serious consider. There are several covers to choose from, depending on how much your salary is. According to case study published on their website, up to 95% of families doesn’t not have enough insurance, which is why income insurance is so important.

Another type of cover that most people tend to overlook is total permanent disablement insurance. The greatest benefit with this cover is that you will be entitled to make a claim if you are suddenly unable to work due to you becoming permanently disabled that you can’t work again. BT would be able to keep providing you with income to help manage your day-to-day needs. If you think about it, this is one of the most worthwhile to take out because in the long run, it can really help you when you need it most.

The last insurance to point out is their living insurance. Basically for those that do not know, it is basically trauma and critical illness insurance. The thing I love about this policy is that you will be able to get a lump sum payment if you suffer from a range of illnesses such as heart attack or cancer.

Bendigo Bank Insurance Review

I have seen Bendigo Bank almost every day. In this review we will be looking at their insurance products. With over 150 years of experience, I am sure that Bendigo will be able to offer all the things required to keep you safe. As I can see, most of the insurance types they offer are pretty much common and standard.

The first, being home and contents insurance. There are three levels to choose from; Gold, Silver and Bronze, and it also seems that they are for both home and contents insurance. One very good thing to see is that you will be able to have your home, garage, domestic outbuildings and contents covered. I thought it was also good to see that the damages can be caused by things like fire, storm, flood water, as well as malicious acts and most importantly, accidental damage, depending on the cover you take out. If you are a landlord, you should take note that you can also get landlord insurance.

Regarding motors, Bendigo Bank offers car, motorcycle and caravan insurance. However one thing to remember is that the cover is provided by CGU. There are three plans that you can take out; Comprehensive, Third party property damage only, and Fire, theft and third party property damage. An interesting thing to point out is that for the Comprehensive cover, you can choose from named only driver and low kilometre, no claim bonus protection, plus other options that can significantly make your policy more suitable for you.

Travel insurance covers you for both domestic travel and international. It was good to see that different levels can be chosen to fit your budget. Benefits include having a 24 hour emergency hotline, which I think is very important, as well as coverage for travel delays, cancellations, rescheduled, as well as lost or damaged luggage and documents. Again, this product is offered by CGU Insurance.

The final product is private health insurance. I realised that it is offered through Australian Unity, one of the most known health insurer in the country. The advantage of being a Bendigo Bank manager is that you will be able to enjoy a 4% discount when you take out a health cover. But best of all you can claim right away on many important extras. The most popular products that I saw include Smart Start, LifeChoice and Smart Combination.

To see all the policies available and to read the PDS, consider going to Bendigo Bank’s website.

Travel Insuranz Review

Travel Insuranz claims to be able to offer quality travel insurance at low price. The highlight of their service seems to come from the fact that they offer budget plans made especially for students to help them save money. Getting a quote is done purely online and provided by Lloyd’s of London.

In order to get a policy, you would first need to go through the online form on their homepage. I did a test go and found out that, after entering my trip type, the destination, the dates and the people insured, I was surprisingly able to get a very affordable quote. The quote was much cheaper than what other insurers were offering. And to make it even better, if your purchase your premiums online you will be able to save 20%. One way that Travel Insuranz really proves they are one fo the top insurers is that they even offer a 14-days money back guarantee if you are not satisfied.

According to their page that listed all the coverage, for some reason it only showed the coverage for their holiday insurance. There are three plans to choose from, known as Classic, Premier and Deluxe. The most comprehensive is Deluxe. Just by going through their features, I was surprised with their high level of claims. Even though there were no unlimited claim limits, even for overseas medical expenses, the claim limit was $10,000,000 for it which I think is beyond enough.

Looking at the other features, I learned that you can get up to $7,500,000 for personal liability, $30,000 for accidental death, $5,0000 for private home nursing and $10,000 for search and rescue expense. These were all great features and really captivated me because some of these limits were even higher than those companies that offered unlimited coverage.

Next, I had a look at their claim service. You can easily down a claim form from their website and then post it back to them. Make sure you include your name, address, telephone number, policy number and a description of the claim. I through the entire process was pretty easy and straightforward and wouldn’t be a big deal for people.

Travel Insuranz, has seen through this review, is a quality insurer that has the ability to offer cheap quotes for anyone head away. Make sure you remember them the next time you are traveling. Feel free to go to their website for more information.

Travel Insuranz has been rated 4 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

Teachers Insurance Insurance Review

While browsing through a list of insurers, one that came as a surprise to me was Teachers Insurance Service. Basically, they were created to only insure teachers and their families. I had their About Us page and read that their goal is to bring quality life risk solutions to their customers as well as using technology to make insurance simple. Did you know that more than 12,000 teachers take out a policy each year?

I think the most common insurance would be life and health events insurance. You will be covered for life insurance health events insurance. However the first thing to note is that this product is offered by Macquarie, known as Macquarie Life Active. Additional covers can also be chosen which I found to be very useful. They are death over, child cover and income cover. Not a lot of life insurers offer these options, so seeing them here is something to remember.

Get comprehensive car insurance that will be able to keep you moving. There is only one level of cover to choose from, and this a comprehensive cover. This means anyone that takes out a over will automatically be given the highest cover. Some of the things included in the cover that I thought can be seen as a very big advantage are towing, car hire cost, theft, as well as damages for more accidents and malicious. On a side note, CTP insurance is also offered for those that are looking for this cover.

Getting home and contents insurance can be easy with Teachers Insurance. You are able to be protected against things from events like fire, storm and flood. To make it even better, you can also make claims for theft and malicious damages, liabilities, as well as impacts of vehicles, trees and aircrafts. Beside the mentioned, people that are renting out their property can also take out landlord insurance.

The last product in this review is their travel insurance.I was literally taken away with the number of plans they have; comprehensive, Australia only, budget, frequent traveller and cancellation only. They can be taken out as a single, duo or family plan. In terms of their comprehensive cover, I was gladly surprised that you are able to claim up to $20,800 for loss of income, $4,000 for travel delays, and even $500 for domestic pets.

To conclude, if you are a teacher, you would be glad to know that Teachers Insurance is one of the options that is made exclusively for you.

Subaru Insurance Review

This is a review on Subaru Insurance. I know this is a service that a lot of Subaru drivers are interested in. At first going through their features I was already pretty impressed by what they have on offer. However this is one thing to remember and it is that the covers offered are actually from Allianz. The advantage of this though is that Subaru will be able to help you arrange your policy.

There are several covers available but the one that they seem to praise the most is their comprehensive policy. The benefits include being able to receive genuine Subaru parts for the first three years of your car’s life. You are also given the opportunity to choose the repair. Most importantly, and one that I thought was very interesting, is that there is a reward system for safe drivers.

Going through the product of disclosure statement, I saw a number of other features. They include substitute vehicle, legal costs, rental car following theft, towing, and even trailer and caravan cover. One of the very important cover that I can see is that you will be given accommodation if your vehicle has broken down and you cannot drive home and that your home is more than 200km away.

Moving onto the next cover, it is known as Third Party Property Damage Cover Only. In this policy, you are only provided the coverage for legal liability, as well as any loss or damage done to your vehicle that is from an accident caused by the driver. Thought this cover seem to be less, I actually think this the minimum amount of protection one should get out. Some of the other benefits that can be paid out to you include substitute vehicle and legal costs.

Moving on, I should also point out in this review some of the things that will not be paid. They include:

  • Unlicensed driver
  • Declined driver
  • Restricted driver
  • Driver under the influence
  • Unsafe vehicle
  • Motor sport

There are many reasons to why having your car’s manufacturer to insure your vehicle can be a good idea. Besides being serviced by people that understands your needs and cars, you will also be given genuine parts in repairs and things of this nature. To find out more about Subaru Insurance, simply visit their website or ask about it in one of their dealers.

Nautilus Insurance Review

Nautilus Marine is an excellent insurer to choose to insure your boats and experience, which it think is more than enough to proof that they are a quality company. They were established in 2005 however between their senior executives there is more than 125 years of experience. One thing to remember about this company is that they insure both personal and commercial boats.

No matter if your boat is new or used, you can be sure that you can find a cover for it under the pleasure craft insurance. You get the option to choose between comprehensive, third party online, extended blue water yacht racing, and blue water cruising policies, which I thought is very handy to ensure everyone gets what they want. The one that I was really attracted to is the comprehensive cover because it includes things like theft of content, personal effects as well as malicious damage. Best of all there is protection for damages done to your boat while it is in transit.

Another product known as personal watercraft insurance is made for personal watercraft. The amount of policy features included in this was a lot more than the other insurers in the market I’ve seen. They include a minimum of two years full replacement; receive genuine parts on repair, as well as theft cover even when there is no evidence. As you can see these are all wonderful aspects to know if you are thinking of insuring your personal watercraft.

Do you own a million dollar cruiser? If so, the master mariner plan can be a policy that you will be able to count on. I was breathless when I saw the amount of features that are included in the policy, including fine wines and alcohol up to $500, personal effects up to $10,000, public liability, paintings, and heaps more. At the end of the list I just can’t think of any reasons why anyone would not want to insure their luxury cruiser with these features.

Lastly, Nautilus also offers a range of protection for people in the marine industry that are all very innovative. Some of them includes transit risk, stock afloat, demonstration cover and many more. With the range of different products in their portfolio, there is no doubt that you will be able to carry on with your business with the lowest risks possible.

No matter if boats is your passion or something you’re just beginning to get an interest, Nautilus Marine Insurance is a company that you can rely on.

Metlife Insurance Review

For those looking to retire or get life insurance products, Metlife is one of the most recommendable insurers in the market today. One of the reason this may be the case is because they have more than 145 years of experience, and has also established themselves as a global leaders. According to their website, they have more than 90 million customers worldwide. They offer products to both individuals and businesses.

As mentioned, their main product is life insurance. According to their benefit descriptions, you will be able to get a lump sum payout when you die. This can be given to your family or your loved ones to pay for things like mortgages, funerals and many more. One interesting thing to see is that Metlife has included a case study on their website that involved a customer being paid $250,000 when he was diagnosed with cancer and only had 12 months to live. After reading this, it really gave me faith with the company that it will serve me and my family well.

Another popular policy is known as income protection, which lets you receive a certain percentage of your monthly income if you are suddenly unable to work. The main reason is usually due to illness or injury. The payout you receive will be able to be used to pay for your medical costs, bills and even education for your children. Again, there was a short case study on their website that explained how a 58 years old man was able to receive payments for 22 months while he was treated for his illness.

For those that have loans, your main aim is to make sure you can keep paying back the money you owe. This is how Metlife will be able to help you with their loan protection. You are able to choose between two different loan protection products. However, if you decide to take out both products, you will be offered a saving of 10%.

The last interesting policy that I found out was their funeral plan. It is very similar to a life insurance where the money paid out is designed to pay for things like funeral costs, medications and even household expenses. I was very impressed when I see their list of benefits that included inflation protection, worldwide cover and many more.

Metlife is no doubt one of the best life insurers, not only in Australia but the world. If you want what good for you and your family, they should be one of your choices.

Metlife Insurance has been rated 4 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

LSV Insurance Review

This is a review on LSV, also known as Lumley Special Vehicles. This company insures classic and vintage cars which can prove to be the top choice for people with this obsession. It is said so on their website that their rates are competitive, making them something worthwhile to check out. One of the downside to LSV though is that you can’t really automatically calculate a quote from their website. You will need to manually request a quote from them by providing the model of your car and other related details.

I discovered many reasons why insuring with LSV is such a good choice. First of all, I was happy to see that you guaranteed for a lifetime on repairs where you can choose the repairer. This means you can be sure your car will be well looked after, no matter what happens to it. Secondly, if you are a member of a car club, you will also be eligible for some discounts.

There may be some people that are so into special cars that they may have several of them. I learned that people like you would be able to get several policies for your vehicles and even save on your premiums. I thought this was a great way to reward customers and even attract more people to join.

The value of your car can be agreed on, and you also get salvage right. This is something I found to be very unique. Basically if your car is caught in a total loss and is declared unrepairable, LSV will be able to return the car to you after the accident. Lastly, you are able to get free windscreen cover where you don’t have to pay for any excess, as long as you include this as part of your options.

Now down to the types of cars you are able to have insured, I found a pretty neat list on their website.

  • Classic – They include for all the cars that are at least 25 years old.
  • Modern Classic – They include limited built cars that are older than 10 years old.
  • Vintage – Any vehicles and cars that were manufactured before 1940.
  • Classic Motorcycle – This is for motorcycles that are over 25 years old.

If any of the car categories matches the one you own, you can rest assure that you will be able to have it insured by LSV. Simply go to their website and arrange a quote for more information.

Lexus Insurance Review

For a lot of Lexus drivers, they are usually given the option to have their car insured by the same car manufacturer. In this review we will have a look at their range of products and benefits that they will be able to offer you. The first thing that I really liked about them is the way how all their products were listed on their website with all the information about them beside them.

I think the comprehensive motor vehicle insurance is the most popular products. It is the policy with the highest protection and therefore will be able to give you the peace of mind you need. The most surprising benefit of this plan is that if your Lexus is stolen or damaged beyond repair, and that it is within the first four years of its registration and has been insured since its first 12 months, you will be able to get a brand new Lexus. I have never seen a policy that offered a benefit as good as this, so I think this is one of the highlights of this plan.

Other things that you will be able to make claims on includes rental car, key and locks, emergency repair costs and many more.

The next product that caught my eyes is their payment protection insurance that can help you pay your vehicle repayments and many more. According to what is written, you will be able to benefit from this insurance if you are suddenly injured or suffers an illness that stops you from working. The biggest advantage with this plan is that you can be sure you will be able to keep your car even if you don’t have any income coming into you.

I was glad to see that there is a plan known as financial gap insurance. In this plan you will be able to protect you from financial loss if your car is stolen or damaged beyond repair. There are several options to choose from which includes your outstanding loan balance to either $30,000, $15,000 or $10,000. There are also options for out-of-pocket expenses at either $4,000, $2,000 or $1,000.

After going through their products, it is easy to see that Lexus Insurance has all the things to make sure your valued car can get the protection it deserve. For more information you can either visit their website or ask about the insurance feature at your local car dealer.

IMAN Insurance Review

IMAN is one of the many health insurers in Australia that provides insurance to overseas workers coming to Australia. I was happy to read that they have been a trusted company for over 30 years, insuring workers. The best thing about them is that options start at only $79.99 for singles, which is extremely affordable and would be able to provide you with a peace of mind.

I found out that there is a large range of covers that can be taken out, from budget plans all the way to comprehensive plans with the entire essential thing covered and more.

To start off, I was very inspired by their cover known as Executive Top. The price for singles is only $350, which is okay considering the large amount of benefits you will be able to enjoy. The ones worthwhile to mention are being able to receive a confirmation of health letter when you join, comprehensive range of extras, ambulance cover and more. Some of the services that you will be covered that are think are very common and thus good to be mentioned are accidents, renal dialysis, grommets in ears, back surgery and many more.

Now going to the cheapest plan, the Budget Visitor Cover really lived up to my standard for such an affordable plan. In this plan you are covered for 100% of the cost for medical provided in hospitals, such as doctors, pathology and even radiology. Some of the services covered are accidents, kidney stones, eye surgery, heart surgery and even rehabilitation programs. Waiting periods do apply, such as 12 months for pregnancy and 2 months for in-patient psychiatric treatment, however there are no waiting periods for ambulance cover.

The names of the other plans offered by IMAN are:

  • Value Plus Visitor Cover
  • Basic Visitor Cover
  • Mid Visitor Cover
  • Top Visitor Cover

One interesting thing about IMAN is that you are able to update your details of your cover via the internet. This can be done by authenticating your details on the website and then choosing the corresponding options.

Going through their claim process, I concluded that it was pretty easy to do. In most cases, you only need to download a claim form and then fill them up with your original invoices and receipts. After you have gotten everything done, just send it back to them and someone will be able to process your claims. For more information, consider going to their website.

BOQ Insurance Review

Some people find it worthwhile to be insured by companies that have over 100 years of experience. In the case of BOQ, they are over 138 years old and have branches in every state, meaning anyone would be able to purchase their products. Right now, according to their website, they have more than five products in their insurance portfolio.

The product that interested me the most is their home and contents insurance that comes with two options. The most comprehensive plan is known as Vero Home Elite and contains all the essential features like flood dover, accidental breakage of glass, and even vet costs if they are injured in a road accident. The only different between this plan and the other plan is that it also insures accidental loss and damages done to your content, as well as being automatically covered for your valuable items anywhere in Australia or New Zealand. And for people that gets an income from their property, there is also landlord insurance to consider.

For people that likes to drive, it seems that BOQ only offers one type of car insurance. This means there are no choice of plans that you can choose from. The advantage of this as I can see is that you will be covered with the highest cover they have on offer. However the things you could choose are either having your car be insured under market value or agreed value.

After looking at all the things you will be able to make a claim for, I was really impressed by their $5000 death benefits, baby capsule up to $500, and many more. One unique aspect that caught my eyes is that you are given the option to waive the excess on your first windscreen claim each year. I think this is a great way for people to save some extra money.

Another popular product that a lot of people takes out is travel insurance. It has been a while since I was last taken away by a travel policy. The highlights that I can see BOQ offers are giving you a 24 hour emergency helpline, unlimited overseas medical expenses, as well as paying you cash while you are in an overseas hospital. There are two types of policies for you to choose form, Secure Holiday and Secure Business.

The other insurance products offered by BOA include commercial insurance, line of credit protection and credit protection.

BOQ Insurance has been rated 4 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

Bankmecu Insurance Review

One of the greatest advantages of Bankmecu Insurance is that their company is owned by their customers. This means that all the profits that they make will go back to their customers to ensure they get better service and products. After going through their website I was convinced that you will be able to find a cover that is right for you.

In their home and contents insurance, you are included with some of the most desirable features such as new for old replacements, legal liability as well as insured events. I learned that several options can also be taken out which really made me think well of the company, they include personal effects, fusion of electric motor and accidental loss and damage. One very important thing to note though is that the policy is issued by Allianz, however you will be purchasing it through Bankmecu. If you own several houses, you may also be glad to hear that there is also landlord insurance to take out.

Bankmecu offers a range of vehicle insurance to choose from. The advantage is that you can choose to have your car, motorcycle, caravan, trailer as well as pleasure craft insured. Taking a deeper look in their car insurance, since that is one that most people would take out, I was generally impressed by their features like accidental loss and damage, choice of repairer, and legal liability. Did you know there are also additional options that you can take out such as tools of trade cover, protected no claim bonus and rental or loan car following an accident. These are all things I believe would be very useful to a lot of people.

Travel insurance is also offered by Allianz, so the plans are the same as on Allianz’s website. For a recap, they include comprehensive cover, Australia only cover, budget cover and frequently traveller cover. Of all these covers, I am especially fond of their comprehensive and budget covers. This is because the first cover offers 16 travel and medical benefits such as cancellation fees, rental vehicle and delays. On the other hand, the budget cover is great for people that are on a tight budget and wants something that is affordable that can give them a peace of mind.

Besides all the personal insurance listed above, it is also god to see that Bankmecu also offers business insurance. I learned that there are several packs that you can take out such as farm packs, office packs, trades and services packs, and many more.

Bankmecu Insurance has been rated 4 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

Travellers Car Insurance Review

Travellers Car Insurance, also known as TCI, is one of the ideal ways that many people have chosen to insure their car when they are travelling or backpacking. This company serves mostly tourists, overseas students and non-residents with third party cover to make sure they will be able to be protected against expensive claims against them.

Seeing the amount you will be protected for, I was actually quite shocked to see that you can claim up to is $10,000,000. This includes Third Party Vehicle Damage and Third Property Damage.

The only disadvantage with this plan though is that it only covers the policy holder, which is likely to be you, and any other named drivers that you have listed in your policy, which unfortunately only goes up to five, but still I think it is a fair number. These five names can also be changed after your policy has been bought, but according to their customer’s policy, there is a $20 administrative fee that you must pay. Also, one very important to remember is that TCI does not cover for damages to your car, theft, or bodily injuries.

Pushing that aside, I was pretty much content with the quotes. A policy can be taken out from three months, all the way to a year, and the price only ranges from a few hundred dollars which I thought was very affordable. Excesses are also quite fair. I was able to come across a table that showed the excess that distinguished the excess by age group and driving experience. I went through the FAQ and one unexpected thing I found out is that policies are not renewable.

I know besides the insurance itself, the next thing most people are concerned about is making a claim. I was quite happy with the way how this company works because all you need to do is to download their claim form, fill them up with any extra documents to prove your case, and then send them all to them.

If you would like to get more information, consider to visit their website.

The Buzz Insurance is part of IAG and was established in 2009. They closed down in 2012.

Ouch Insurance Review

Ouch Insurance is part of the crowd of online insurers that claims to be able to provide cheaper travel insurance. In this case, Ouch especially mentioned that the price will be pain-free, which I thought was a witty way to put it.

Before going any further, the first thing to note is that only international journeys are able to be insured. I came to this conclusion after arriving to their Policy Insurance page and was only showed a list of international plans. However despite this drawback, the plans are actually pretty decent.

My favourite product in their portfolio is their Premier Plus Extras Travel Plan. You can take out this plan if you are going to USA, Canada and Antarctica. One very intriguing to know too is that Qantas Frequent Flyer points are also available in this plan. One policy can be taken out as either Single or Family. I was glad to see all the essentials are included such as unlimited claims on cancellation, emergency travel arrangements, medical/dental expenses and evacuations. However the one thing that stands out from the other plans is that you also get covered for funeral expenses within Australia as well as claims for total permanent disability.

The next plan after this is known as A Travel Plan, covering Continental Europe, South and Central America, Middle East, Africa and Japan. Things are pretty similar to the Premier Plus plan, except there are no coverage for funeral and TPD. The amounts you can claim for the other things are also identical too, and if there are any differences in claim amounts, they are just a few thousand/hundred dollars, depending what the benefits are.

The B Travel Plan is the minimum cover for UK, Asia and Tahiti. One difference in this product is that hospital compensation is a few thousand dollars less than the mentioned plans, as well as travel delays and accidental death. However don’t let the lower claim put you down, because considering the amount you can still claim, they would be perfect for anyone heading to UK, Asia or Tahiti.

Finally, C Travel Plan was designed for people heading to the Pacific Region and Indonesia, basically countries close to home.. Even though it is the lowest cover, the benefit levels are still quite high. To prove this point, the amount you can claim for accidental death is $20,000 for Family and $10,000 for Singles.

Regardless where you are going, as long as you are heading outside of Australia, there is no doubt that you will be able to get the coverage you need under the right price.

Honda Insurance Review

Honda Insurance is offered by one of the most popular car brands in the world. In this review we will have a look at all the benefits included in their portfolio and see how they can help you.

But before going any further, the things that Honda made very clear is that you will be able to get a new car replacement if your car gets damaged in a total loss. The thing to note though is that to be eligible for this claim, your car must be within three years of its original registration date.

Another thing that made me very intrigued is that you are guaranteed to transfer any No Claim Bonus you may have from your former insurer. This means your good deeds are not forgotten. Lastly, all the parts used to repair your vehicle are sure to be genuine parts, meaning you will be able to get a peace of mind you will be given a quality service.

There are actually a number of insurance plans offered by Honda.

In their comprehensive cover, I would impressed to see an extensive list of benefits that I believe can prove to be very attractive for drivers. For example, you will be covered for damages and physical loss, even if they were accidental. You also get to enjoy claims on towing, trailer and caravan cover, as well as emergency repairs. But the thing that really caught my eyes is that personal effects and clothing are also covered, but the best thing about it is that these items can belong to you, your partner, or even of your children.

One popular insurance that many people take out is tyre and rim insurance. As the name suggests, you are able to have your tyres and wheels insured, but that’s not all. The great thing about this policy offered by Honda is that you can claim up to $800 per tyre if you take out a Prestige cover. As you can see, this amount is beyond sufficient and would surely be able to repair or buy you a new tyre/rim. The other type of cover you can take out is known as Standard.

The third policy I would like to bring your attention to is loan protection insurance. This can be for both individual and businesses, however we will be only look at the products for individual. Basically, if you ever become disabled, die, or become involuntary unemployed, your policy will be able to continue to pay off your loan so that you will be able to keep your car.

Besides the above, Honda Insurance offers several more products. You can see them on their website.

Honda Insurance has been rated 4.5 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

NLC Insurance Review

NLC is a financing company made especially for cars. Judging by what I can see, they have dedicated their time since 1990 to satisfy the unique car needs of Australians. With just a quick scan over their website I could see they provide financing and insurance, among many other things.

I was also surprised to see that they offer a long list of products beyond the common comprehensive policy.

The first, as stated, is known as comprehensive motor car insurance. I was generally pleased with the benefits they offered such as automatic renewal that can prove to be very helpful for people that wants to remain a lifetime customer with NLC. There is also a lease payout that I thought was very great because this means when your car is in a total loss, you will be able to make a claim to get the money to discharge your obligation under your lease. Other protections that are included and that many people find to be important are windscreen protection, emergency repairs, as well as replacement of locks and keys.

Redundancy insurance is a product that will be able to help provide financial support when you become involuntarily unemployed. You will be able to have your monthly lease paid up to $1,500 per month, which I think should be more than enough.

On the other hand, I found the extended warranty insurance to be very helpful. This is because it offers extended cover on the electrical and mechanical components when your warranty has expired, which means you will be able to get a longer peace of mind. One very interesting thing to know is that the claim server is paperless which can be helpful to reduce stress.

I was struck to see that there is a product known as scratch and dent insurance. If getting a comprehensive cover is too much for you to handle, but you still want to have the important things covered like scratches and dents, this is the policy that I can see would be great for you. The claim you can make goes up to a massive $600 for each claim, which I thought was a lot. But most importantly, you are able to claim up to $4,000 over the policy period.

Similarly, the other product in NLC’s portfolio that I thought could be very useful is the tyre and rim insurance. The biggest advantage is that you are covered for the repair or replacement for your tyres and wheels when they are damaged accidentally. The amount you can claim up to is $4,000.

Just by going through the points above, I can already see how NLC Insurance will be able to benefit you. If you want to be with a firm that already has expertise in cars, you know which one to choose.

NLC Insurance has been rated 4.5 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

People’s Choice Credit Union Insurance Review

What a colourful website People’s Choice Credit Union has! I moved onto their insurance information page and was again hit with many colourful designs. But besides that point, I was generally happy with all the covers offered by them as they are all products we can all relate to.

Home and Contents Insurance is something we all need, and I am happy to see that this is offered. Through experience, the features that I know are going to be very helpful included are flood cover (which is automatically covered, I should add), natural disasters, theft, glass breakage, and even lets you protect the contents of your visitors up to the value of $5,000.

And for people that don’t mind paying a bit more so that they can get the peace of mind they need, there are also optional additional covers that you can take out. They include accidental loss/damage, and increase coverage limits on valuables.

In my opinion, the best part has got to be the fact that you will be entitled for a discount if you are over the age of 50. I think this is a great way to encourage the older folks to purchase a policy.

Next, I was stunned that three different vehicles can be insured under their vehicle insurance category. They include cars, caravans and boats. Regarding the car insurance, I was impressed to see that you are covered for one free windscreen per year on all comprehensive policies, car hire, locks and keys, as well as coverage for baby capsules and trailer. The reason why I think these features are so good is because in a lot of other insurers, these features need to be taken out as extras, which can end up being quite expensive.

The thing I’ve learnt is that your persona life will also be secured as well with travel, mortgage repayment, life and health insurance. I think the most common one would be travel insurance and was impressed to see that if you are already a member of People’s Choice, you will automatically be entitled for a 20% discount on your policy. And believe me, this is a lot. In regards to the things you are covered for, they include all the normal stuff, including things I was surprised to see like camera and video equipment, and also missed connections.

Furthermore, if you have a business, you may also find the business insurance plans offered useful. You can find out more on their website.

My Cover Insurance Review - Travel

My Cover is a quick and very recommendable travel insurance that lets customers obtain quotes and policies online. I was impressed by the way they listed all their different coverage directly on their website with plenty of explanations beside them. I thought it was very informative that they are able to provide such details straight out.

Individual pages were also available that showed further information. In my opinion, the protection offered by My Cover is great for anyone going overseas, travelling within Australia, as well as people that are wishing to get affordable policies.

The plan with the highest protection and the one I would definitely take out is the comprehensive international plan. As I can see, the cover starts at the time you leave your home, and the time you return your home, which is pretty much reasonable. In terms of the actual cover, it can be bought by Single, Duo and Family, which is good because this includes everyone. I was very pleased with the amount of cover because all of them were pretty high. For example, those that caught my eyes are up to $100,000 for additional expenses, $20,800 for loss of income, and $10,000 for alternative transport expenses. Seeing all these great features, I honestly think your time overseas will be guaranteed to be secured.

If you are deciding to stay in Australia and spend your time away at home, the plan for you is known as Australia Only. It contains a lot less benefits than the comprehensive plan; however it does include unlimited cancellation fees and lost deposits. Again, it can be bought in Single, Duo and Family. In my opinion, the limits for the other features are also pretty high as well, including up to $50,000 for accidental death and $5,000,000 for personal liability.

Now for the very interesting plan, I was intrigued by the name Budget Cover. Having a closer look, I learned that contain three features; three important and essential features, I should add, that should always be included. If you are someone that wants to save on travel insurance and only get the things you need, this plan would definitely be able to save you money. The coverage includes overseas emergency medical assistance, hospital expenses and personal liability.

To finish, the other plan you would likely expect is Frequent Traveller plan. As you may have guessed, the benefits are very similar to a single comprehensive. The main advantage of this plan is that you are able to take unlimited journeys a year as long as each trip is less than 37 days for leisure travels, and 90 days for business travels.

My Cover Insurance has been rated 5 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

Defence Bank Insurance Review

Defence Bank Insurance is owned by the bank that started operation in March 1975. They have a list of great products like loans, credit cards, and even investment services, one of them insurance. I was able to access their lists from the top of their website, which I thought was very easy to do.

For all the drivers out there, I am certain that you will be able to benefit from the car insurance offered by Defence Bank. The names of their plans in their product portfolio are pretty much normal by offering things from comprehensive cover all the way to third party fire and theft, and third party property damage.

What really caught my eyes is that several options can be taken out such as Motor Vehicle Insurance Policy, Nominated Driver Motor Vehicle Insurance, and Nominated Driver Low Kilometre Motor Vehicle Insurance.

If cars are not your thing, or perhaps you also drive a motorcycle, motorcycle insurance is something that can offer you much peace of mind as well. The names of the plans are the same as in the car insurance, which I assume that the protection will be similar as well, except it will be for motorcycles, not cars.

Putting aside cars, the next most important thing for many people are their homes, and which is why I was so impressed by the things offered in the home and building insurance. In order to protect your property and building I was glad to see that a list of events are shown where you will be able to make a claim such as flood cover, theft, vandalism, and more. Accidental damages can also be claimed. In regards to contents insurance, the types of protection also come in listed events and accidental damage.

Moving up next is travel insurance. Unlike other brands, Defence Bank only offers comprehensive travel insurance which means you only have one choice to choose from. The key features that I found to be very useful and is glad that are included include things like luggage and travel document cover, overseas medical, hospital expenses, as well as cancellations and delays. I think all of these things are very important to as they offer protection to some of the most stressful things when events turn sour.

Besides all the mentioned policies, the last one that I felt needs a lot of emphasise is loan repayment insurance. Reading through the information page, I found out that it is a great way to make sure your loans can be repaid even if you have died. I think this will no doubt give relief to your loved ones.

Defence Bank Insurance has been rated 5 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

Chartis Insurance Review - Car, Health, Travel

At first when I decided to review Chartis Insurance, I did a search for them on Google however was then directed to AIG Insurance’s website, which I guess is their new website, or at least the parent company. So in this review we will be looking at AIG.

The first thing that I figured out is that AIG is mainly a business insurance firm. The reason why I am saying this is because the list of business insurance products listed on their website includes more than 10 different options, including aviation, energy, property, accident and health insurance.

But because most of the viewers of this blog are most likely to be individuals, I will focus my review on that.

I found out that a variety of covers is offered under their accident and health insurance plans. They include things for accidents, and disablements, as well as plans solely for insuring against cancer. Another interesting plan is known as Recovery Cash, and is basically similar to income protection plan. The thing I really like about it is that it can pay you up to $250 a day, up to 90 days, which should more than enough for the policyholder to keep on moving on with their lives while they recover from whatever injury they are experiencing.

Of all the plans, I think the most interesting one is the security plus seniors. As implied, this cover is made for seniors, which is one of the age groups that would most benefit from health care. There are three levels to choose from; Silver, Gold and Premium, however the thing I like about them is that you are guaranteed to be accepted, be able to get a lump sum of cash when you make a claim, as well as a short 14-day cooling off period.

You are also able to protect your health when overseas by getting travel insurance. The selections in AIG’s product portfolio are pretty much common to other insurers with plans like annual multi trip, international single trip, domestic travel, and mature age +70. With just a glace I am sure you will be able to get a policy no matter where you go.

If you think Chartis Insurance or AIG Insurance is something you would want more information on, feel free to visit their website and check out their plans. Regardless if you are after personal or business products, you can be sure to be able to find something that matches you needs.

TAL Insurance Review

TAL Insurance is quite impressive. They started at 1869, and based on experience this is one of the oldest life insurers I have seen. This can be seen as they have a huge line of products offered, both personal and business products. What really overwhelmed me is that they have won several awards for being the life insurer of the year for 2009, 2011, 2012.

Since we all need life insurance, I decided to look at TAL’s information about them and came out quite impressed. The biggest advantage is that you will be able to get an immediate lump sum when you die, which can then be used to pay off mortgages, debts, investments and even to go towards your funeral. As a whole, I find this is a great way to let your family and loved ones stay safe.

Another product that has been gaining in popularity is income protection insurance. The percentage of your income that you can get is up to 75% of your monthly income, which is pretty average. Basically what I found out is that you can make a claim whenever you become ill, gets injured, or gets caught in an accident that stops you from working.

Similarly critically illness insurance only pays out when you are dialogised with a specific critical illness, which can include cancer and heart disease. According to the scenario on their information page, I learnt that a 52 year old person is able to receive more than $780,000 to help her pay for mortgage and surgery bills. This amount really took my breath away, and seeing that this is something TAL will be able to pay you is something to seriously consider about.

For an even lighter plan, there is total and permanent disability insurance, which is also very recommendable. The first thing that I read is that you will be able to get a payment if you become permanently unable to work due to an accident or illness.

Lastly, there is also business expense insurance for those with businesses. If you happen to someone in this category and is unable to work, this cover will be able to let you pay your monthly expenses to keep your business opened.

To see more information about TAL and the things that they can offer, simply go to their website. One interesting thing that I found out is that you can be a TAL adviser. There are information to how you can do this, all listed on certain pages.

TAL Insurance has been rated 5 out of 5 by Insurance Reviews.

Zurich Insurance Review

Zurich Insurance is a multinational company that I have come across in several countries. Their services reach from products for individuals, all the way to businesses. What seemed very interesting to me though is that Zurich seems to have a lot of emphasise on getting an insurance broker and even provide links to where you can choose a good one which I thought was very useful.

Getting into business, Zurich offers four types of insurance products in their portfolio for individuals.

The NSW CTP Green Slips is no doubt something we would all be familiar with. This is only available for drivers in New South Wales and was created to help protect third parties from injuries. As shown on their website, the advantages of choosing Zurich to get your CTP policy include competitive price, automatically includes At-Fault Driver, and many more.

Moving on, I was very surprised to see the wide variety of different life insurance products offered. This seemed to be one of their main products. I was astonished to see that there are policies for almost every life stages, and all the types of cover you need.

For example I was particularly attracted to their death cover. This is a comprehensive cover that can be used to pay debts and even funeral if you suddenly die. The best feature of this though is being able to get a lump sum benefit. Another plan that I was very interested about was Accident Income and Income Protection. They are both similar and can be used to pay you up to 75% of your monthly income if you are unable to work. I thought the percentage was very high and would definitely be able to help those people in need.

Other life insurance products I was pleased to see offered by Zurich are accidental death, TPD, business expenses and child trauma.

One insurance product growing in popularity is credit card/debit card insurance. The great thing is that a list of card providers are accepted to be insured, including Commonwealth Bank, St George, HSBC and Bankwest among many others. The benefits that you may be able to receive that I thought was overwhelming includes thing like funeral expenses, loss of income, legal liability and more.

For those thinking of moving house, you are going to find the home removals insurance very worthwhile. I really liked the fact that it is suitable for families and individuals moving within in Australia, as well as several selected destinations overseas. Their plans come in Gold, Silver and Platinum.

Ski Insurance Review - Travel

As we reach into winter, no doubt the group of people that fancies the snow would head up into the icy areas to do some skiing. On company known as Ski Insurance is an insurer that I found to be able to offer complete insurance for people heading to the slopes. Judging by their website, they are owned by 1Cover and issued by Allianz. If you know your acts, you would know that these two companies are two of the most well known in Australia.

Also, at the bottom of their website was a logo that showed their website has been tested daily to ensure it is hacker-free. I thought this was a great way to give customers a peace of mind that they are buying from a trusted source.

Through my eyes it seems to me that all their covers automatically includes ski related coverage such as features for snow ski equipment hire, ski pack, piste closure, and bad weather closure.

There are four plans to choose from; Annual, International, Domestic and Professional, however for some reasons the page that lists the cover summary only showed Single Trip And Annual Multi-Trip, and Australia Only Trip.

Anyhow, I was still particularly impressed by the things you will be able to get out of the Single Trip And Annual Multi Trip plan. The most important thing is that a policy can be taken out by Single, Duo and Family Cover, which means everyone. I was also pretty happy with the excess because all the features that had excess were only up to $100. Single and Duo almost have the same claim limits, and Family’s limits are almost twice as much as everything the first two covers offered.

Furthermore, I was very impressed to see that unlimited covers are included for overseas hospital, emergency, cancellation fees and emergency rescue. The claim limits on the other hand, are also very impressive. You can get up to $100,000 for additional expenses, $10,000 for luggage/personal effects, and up to $500 for domestic pets.

In the next plan made for domestic travels, again a cover can be bought by Single, Duo and Family. The disadvantage is that there are several things not included in this policy such as travel documents, credit cards, alternative transport expense and domestic pets. However, the advantages is that for the things that are included, several of them have unlimited coverage like cancellation fees and emergency rescue. It is actually pretty uncommon for domestic plans to have unlimited features, so seeing the opposite here is actually something to be glad about.
