Quick and helpful service!

Called to change the car on my policy as I had purchased a new one and the process couldn’t have been easier. Old policy was canceled and outstanding premium refunded and new policy created within 5 minutes.

the worst insurance I ever have

published

I been trying to sort out a claim for about 8 weeks, every time I speak to a person at real they give the same old story they are looking into my claim, but still not going anywhere and now it looks like they have lost important information I have given to real insurance. They say you only find out how good a insurance company is until you make a claim well REAL INSURANCE is TERRIBLE!

Charge you extra to help you on the phone

published

I called real car insurance today to help as the website would not let me log in and got told by the operator that my premium would go up because she is helping me over the phone. What a absolute joke you guys are. Im already paying for a service and you want to charge me to talk to someone on the phone.

Great service so far

published

I have only been with real insurance for a short time but when someone hit my car and I had to lodge a claim with them they were great to deal with. Very friendly and straight forward and since it was the first time I've ever been in an accident I was unsure regarding the process and what to do and they were really helpful and willing to explain the process. The panel beater wasn't overly close that they said I had to use however the service from them was great and they had my car fixed back to new within a few weeks after the accident. So far very happy!

Great Company

published

The policy I got was of good value, even changing policies was no hassle.
When lodging my claim it only took a couple of days before I received an email telling me that my claim was approved and that the excess has been waived.
I have been with Real Insurance for at least 5 or more years now and when I relocated to the country my pay by the month policy went down by half.
Didn't require roadside assistance.

Its so good not to worry if things are not covered safely

I have had only good things to say regarding the response that I have received from them on all of my several policies that I have had with them with the only hiccup being that I forgot to advise my change of postal address. definitely their fault for not guessing...….

claim was resolved

published

Very disappointing and frustrating experience. Waited for 6 weeks to get paid but turn out that we couldn’t agree with the amount because they refused to paid all the receipt provided. Now, we were told to escalate it to the dispute and maximum time is 45 days. Seriously? How long should we wait more? We have lost a lot of money from this accident and it’s not my husband’s fault. What insurance is for then? I thought to get us covered.( these are my previous review)

After a week

Our claim was resolved after 1 week in internal dispute. Got paid with all our receipts. Total waiting time is 7 weeks.

Hi Angela,
We are not happy at all.. I sent you the claim details and the complaint I’d as well. Please do as you say to make it quicker. 6 weeks is very long already, and another 45 days is not funny.

Why pay comprehensive insurance when you only drive 5000 kms annually? Pay as you drive will save you lot. Having been with Real Insurance for the last 10 years, I am very happy with their service
