An excess or deductible is an agreed amount which you need to pay, before you can receive any policy benefits. Please check your policy schedule to see if an excess or deductible applies to your policy. We’ll tell you what your excess or deductible is, when you make your claim.
If we accept your claim, we’ll aim to provide efficient assistance. Talk to us if you’re in financial hardship as we may be able to fast-track your claim.
