Very Helpful & professional!

published

Disha was extremely friendly, patient and professional with helping me set up my life insurance, TPD & income protection. It was done over two days, as I wanted time to read all the info before committing. This wasn't a problem with them and I got a call back the next day as requested by me to finalise my paperwork.

New Credit Card Details

We were required to renew our Credit Card by our Bank and advised Real accordingly. The change in card details was handled seemlessly by Real staff, who were very friendly and helpful.

A must have

published

I would have lost everything without my income protection/bill cover. I had no troubles with my claims through the year.
With a newborn baby and moving into our new home I was struck with a serious medical condition, bed ridden for over a year an absolute disaster. Real insurance came through for me every step of the way. Thank you deeply.

They take your money but wont pay out!

published

Husband had injury at work. Unable to work due to chronic pain. Applied to Real Insurance once workcover payments stopped. Real insurance wont pay out bill cover as there is apparently evidence of pre-existing injury from 5 years ago that hasnt caused any ongoing problems.
Congratulations Real. Youve left our family in the gutters!

thanks Jasmine

Jasmine was amazing, patient and understanding
however, i feel for her and your staff having to read the entire policy on the phone, people don t have time to listen to all of that and surely it can be done online.

Excellent service, I was serviced by James and he is a star. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the service provided.

published

Good value for the cover
Very lengthy process to get there but worth it.
Excellent service provided by James, he was attentive and extremely professional, I am actually very surprised that he is not a customer manager, you are under-using his skills.

hi Ayveril,Taking out funeral insurance is a very personal choice.for my wife and i, it is an expense we can do without at the moment.
With regards to taking out your policy with real insurance-i say don't.they are shifty.they lied to us and ripped us of to the tune of $4000.00.
you would be well advised to take out your policy with a large and well known insurance company and one that is reputable.gp.

It depends on how old you are. Work out how much you pay per year and multiply that by how many years you might live. It could work out to cost more than the funeral itself would cost. You could just put that money away each month into an account you don't touch so that it is there when you need it. If you have a mortgage offset account you could put in there to save interest on your home loan.

Funeral insurance is a total rip off. Better to go with a pre-paid funeral plan with the funeral company, where you can know it is paid for and that your family won't have to be jumping through hoops to get financial assistance when you die. The small print on funeral insurance is breathtakingly confusing - and deliberately so. You must remember that the whole purpose of insurance companies is to NOT pay claims, and they will go to whatever lengths to make sure you have either 'breached' the conditions and voided the payout, or they make it so hard you just give up and go away. It's reprehensible how they treat grieving people who are already under a lot of strain, and if my husband hadn't been so persistent - and ANGRY - I'm sure we would never have seen the money for his father's funeral.

Why is my policy payments going up when in theory it should be going down? Funerals are getting cheaper aren't they? I'm doing a comparison quote tomorrow.

Thanks for your feedback. If you could please send us a private Facebook message including your policy details here: https://www.facebook.com/Real.Insurance we would like to explain the cause of the premium increase. Usually it's a result of underwritting changes. Thank you
