Frequently asked questions

What is an excess and what options are available?

If you need to make a claim, you might need to pay an excess. An excess is the amount you contribute towards a claim. You can read more about the different types of excesses in the Premium, Excess, Discounts and Benefits Guide.

When you take out your policy, you’re able to select from a variety of excess options. For a basic excess, you can choose from: $100, $200, $300, $500, $750, $1,000, $2,000, $3,000, $4,000, $5,000. 

You can reduce your premium by choosing a higher basic excess.
