Have a question? We can help
Accidental damage cover protects you when things go wrong around your home.
For example, you'd be covered if your child accidentally knocked your TV over and broke the screen. Or if you were up in your roof and accidentally put your foot through the ceiling. Whether your building or contents are covered (or both) depends on your policy.
Accidental damage cover's automatically included with Home Plus and can be added to standard home insurance.
General contents are items you keep in and around your home that aren't permanently attached or fixed to the home's structure, like furniture.
Valuable contents are covered as part of your general contents, however the cover is limited to $2,500 for these categories:
- Works of art
- Music, games and movies
- Collections
- Jewellery and watches
Under Valuable contents, you can choose to insure these items inside your home for more than what would normally be paid out.
Portable contents are items that you or your family own that you can take outside of your home.
This depends on the types of items that you're claiming for.
Contents items such as electrical items are generally referred to a specialist supplier that can assist in the replacement process.
Sometimes we can choose to settle your claim with a store credit or cash settlement and where possible, repair or restore content items.
General Contents held in storage can be covered under our Home Insurance policy if you inform us before moving your items into storage and if our acceptance criteria are met.
Refer to the Product Disclosure Statement for information on items not covered while in storage.
Please note that Valuable Contents are not covered while in storage.
If you live in a share house you can either take out a policy as a group and all be listed on the policy or you can take out your own policy.
We only provide cover for the contents that are owned by the people that are listed on the policy. The amount you want to insure for should represent those items.
Yes, even if you don’t own the place you’re living in, you can still protect the things inside it (like your furniture, TV and clothes).
You can be covered if things go wrong, like if your belongings get stolen or damaged in a fire.
Renters’ Contents Insurance (also known as Home Contents Insurance) is for people that want to cover their belongings, but don't want any cover for buildings.
We operate in New South Wales, Queensland, Tasmania, Australian Capital Territory, Western Australia, South Australia and the Northern Territory.
