Can I change my sum insured?
Determining the correct sum insured is critical to ensure you're covered in the event of a claim. If your sum insured is too low, you might not be able to rebuild your home or replace its contents. We may even ask you to use one of our calculators to ensure your sum insured is right for you.
If you're unsure or want to check your sum insured, please use one of our calculators.
You're able to change your sum insured any time during the term of your policy. Log into your Self Service Centre account and select the policy you want to change, adjust the value and follow the prompts.
How do I change my details, like my contact numbers and address?
To change your details including your address, email address or contact numbers, you can do this online by:
- Logging into your Self Service Centre account
- Select 'Contact details'
- Select 'Edit' in the area you wish to update

Do I need to tell you if I'm changing address?

What's the difference between general, valuable and portable contents?
General contents are items you keep in and around your home that aren't permanently attached or fixed to the home's structure, for example furniture.
Valuable contents are covered as part of your general contents, however the cover is limited to $2,500 for each category below.
- 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.

How's my premium calculated?
The price of your insurance is based on how likely you are to make a claim and by considering a specific set of influences, including:
- Pricing factors
- No Claim Bonus
- Policy options
- Loyalty Discounts, and
- Government charges
To find out more about how we calculate your premium, read our Premium, Excess and Discounts guide
What's an excess and who pays it?
An excess is an amount you may need to pay towards a claim. There are three different types of excess that may apply:
- Basic - your chosen excess
- Earthquake
- Special, for example storm, fire or theft
To find out which excess type applies to you, please refer to your policy document or view your policy in your Self Service Centre account
Unless you've chosen to have a $0 excess on your policy, it's likely that you'll need to pay an excess for your claim. You don't have to pay an excess if you make a claim for:
- Liability
- Food spoilage
- An incident we agree someone else is responsible for. You'll need to provide their name and address, and the claim amount needs to be more than the excess
For general information about excess, please read our Premium, Excess and Discounts guide
What's a No Claim Bonus?
A No Claim Bonus (NCB) is a discount that's applied to your premium to reward you for having a good claims history. The longer you remain claim free, the higher your NCB level becomes, plus you'll receive more privileges. Our NCB ranges from 0% to a maximum 25%. We base your NCB on the:
- Claims history of any listed owners
- Number of years any listed owners have held home insurance for
To find out more about NCB please read our Premium, Excess and Discounts guide
