Common questions
What is the difference between third party and comprehensive car insurance?
Third party insurance covers damage you cause to other people's vehicles and property, but not your own car. Comprehensive insurance adds cover for your own vehicle as well.
Does my postcode affect my car insurance price?
Yes. Insurers assess claim rates and theft statistics by location when calculating premiums. Urban areas with higher traffic density or theft rates can result in higher premiums.
Can I switch insurers mid-policy?
In most cases yes. If you cancel a policy early, you may receive a pro-rata refund of the unused portion. Check the cancellation terms in your Product Disclosure Statement.
