Hi all,
I drive a 2014 Toyota Corolla and since the car is paid off I don't think I wanna get comprehensive insurance (also it's ridiculously expensive with Naked offering me around 1800 with a 7.5K excess). And I don't drive that much. But I am under an 25M so I kinda get the high prices.
So...
Hi, my car insurance told me they will have to write of my car. Can I withdraw the claim? it is superficial damage, hardly noticeble, no mechanical damage. But it ia a 2006 Mercedes and not worth much (in money terms) and the only quote I was allowed to get is from a company that will replace...

Just got a call from discovery car insurance. I am currently paying them R1200 with R4000 excess (which I always have on hand, in emergency fund) but the sales person wants me to increase the premium to R1350 for R0 excess. I've only ever claimed once for a write off, in November 2020. Is this...

I am looking to change my insurer for my car and household items and thought I would get some recommendations.
Please let me know who you would / would not recommend.
Thanks!
For those who don't know, Naked is backed/under-written by Hollard insurance.
It is an App/AI based insurance company; it takes around 90 seconds to get quoted. (It seriously does)
This was my first ever car, I was 19 at the stage of quoting, and it was a performance car. (Fiesta ST 2013)

I've been interested in Prime Meridian's car insurance before but my wife convinced me to get car insurance through her family's broker. I'm not so happy with my current insurance - I had to claim recently and my excess payment was huge. It's my fault - I never read all of the fine print - the...
Hey all,
So here's the situation:

I'm looking to take over my car insurance. Currently a registered driver on my...
If you would like to get a cheaper car insurance premium then this post is for you. All you need to do is call your car insurance company (I usually get them to call me back by posting a request for a call back online), and then tell them that you want to cancel your contract. They'll ask you...

Ok, so some people might have seen that I've been a fan of Outsurance on here, but I think we may have to part after the latest annual re-rate I received.
They informed me that my premiums were going up from R874 to R1261/month ... a cool bump of 44% 0.o
When I phoned them they confirmed the...
So, I am being severely man-handled by Outsurance. I moved up to JBurg from Cape Town last year and they increased my car insurance premium by R100. Then, I moved from Dainfern to Fourways, and they increased it by another R50. And now, they have just increased it again for their annual...
