Hi Lisa, thank you for taking the time to review our insurance. I'm sorry to hear you have had a bad experience. Is this something that I can chase up for you? Kind regards, Gemma

Hi Shak, thanks for the lovely feedback, I will make sure this is sent on to our team. Kind regards, Gemma

Great customer service and amazing value!

I only joined RAA a few months ago and was involved in a car accident recently. RAA took care of everything for me, everything was sorted within the week and money transferred to me after my car was written off.
I would definitely recommended RAA!

It's been nearly a week since the above and I replied, as requested. No word since. Unimpressive, to say the least. I will post again on this website, should some genuine move from them be forthcoming!

Latest update on this dodgy saga; they sent me a renewal membership advice for another year. Can you believe it??? Will they respect my cancellation request this time? Enough to give you a blood pressure spike!!

What a joke!!!!

Pffft my car gets stolen from my house, and the police found the car the next day, now I had too hand the rental car back the next day! What am I meant to drive now??? Fly??? I pay top dollar for a nonsense service, so until you decide to do a investigation on my car I'll just sit at home and wait!!! Facebook hate page coming up

Incompetent for no fault claim

published

This is the worst insurance company I have ever dealt with for a no-fault claim. Claim managers are lazy and incompetent. Avoid this company or you will regret it later with all your wasted time and frustration. I will be reporting my experience to the insurance ombudsman and also lodging an internal complaint as I have a page of errors in their service.

Excellent local call centre and good insurance service

published

The few times recently I have had to deal with RAA for car insurance they have been excellent. Calls are answered quickly in Australian call centres, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Their fees are competitive and the website works well. 5 Stars from me.

Seven phone calls with no return calls to be told as you own a business we don't take the income from the business into consideration when processing an application. If they told me when I first contacted them I would never have applied.
The accounts lady was aggressive.
My wife recently tried for 2 weeks to make an appointment to see one of their travel agents. She never had a phone call back. We booked through another agency.
We are paying members and this is the service they provide.

How hard could it be??

published

It's been 6 weeks since an RAA-insured lady hit me on my bike. Went through the whole process (police report, she claimed and I submitted photos, quote etc.) and am still waiting to hear anything. I've rang a few times to be told "the report hasn't come back from our assessors". No option to do a damn thing to speed things up. Maybe if they spent less on shiny tv adds....?
nice work team, be proud.

This was an easy claim process and also the price initially was comparable and we also liked that it was South Australian and meant we were helped by someone local.

Worst customer service

published

I had an accident and I wasn’t at fault. I tried to provide the other party’s info and the collision no to RAA but they won’t accept any of the info. I spoke to two agents and they both said that I’ll have to deal the other party’s insurance myself and they can’t do anything about it. What am I paying them for if I have to sort it all out? They take your money and provide no service. Every person I spoke to including the police said that the insurance companies would handle it. Beware if you’re dealing with the claims department. The last thing you need after having an accident is to be on hold for a long time and then speak to someone rude who can’t even help you.

Terrible customer service, expensive offer

published

Worst customer service I've ever seen.
Being on the line for a long time and an expensive service was offered to me. I could find the same service from other place way much cheaper.
If they want to keep their customers they need to change their behavior.

Terrible claims

published

I have an accident that it’s very easy to judge that it’s not my fault but raa still need me to pay access when I need my car repaired because they said three party insurance don’t respond. I suspect whether raa staffs are spies of other insurance companies because acces can’t cover the repair costs.

RAA Car Insurance

I have comprehensive car insurance ! Recently had accident! my car will be non - repairable. My car is used when we bought but it’s a 2017 Honda and was only done 10,000 and around 40,000 on the clock right before the crash !, my question is, I read it in the PDS that car can be replaced with same model, year and condition ! We have loan with the car, and we only need a replacement car as we need a car anyways as we have 4 children ! Dose it possible to get replacement car instead the insurer pay out our loan and stuff ? This is my first claim ever! Hopefully will be hassle free as I already experienced a very unpleasant costumer services and stressing ! Praying for a good result ! Thank you !

Hi Marelle, it took about eight weeks, but I delayed the process by not having my phone on hand (leaving it in the car and not checking the missed calls) when the RAA had tried to ring.

Thanks Douglas. I have never encountered such a lack of customer service. It is causing me a huge amount of stress and financial pressure. I've been a RAA member for 17 years, and it means nothing. Never again.
