We’ve got contents insurance with AA and from next year we’ll be paying 33% more. We have had 2 claims for a different policy this year, one at fault, one not, and they said it wouldn’t impact our premiums. Is this common for everyone? I understand it goes up because of all the floods, but 33% is very significant.
Which bank offers insurance? Ours (BNZ) doesn’t I believe.
I thought it was a common product. Easy to sell house insurance with a mortgage. It’s just a reselling though, they aren’t the actual insurer.
We use ANZ but it looks like BNZ has the same stuff: https://www.bnz.co.nz/personal-banking/insurance
Thanks, didn’t know BNZ had that. Seems like I can’t do online quotes. One of those things, not sure if it’s worth the hassle.
E.g. I just switched to Kogan Mobile for my wife and I as it was much cheaper, but for my wife can’t get number port to work. So much time wasted on their support. In the end just given up and she’ll use the Kogan sim for data only, luckily she has a dual sim phone.
So I know AA is good so probably stick with them.
The next time you buy a house or apply for a credit card or something, have the bank quote you for insurance too. I tend to find it’s easier when you’re already going through an involved process as you can provide info once for two different things.
