Making a complaint

We treat complaints seriously. If you have a complaint about any aspect of your relationship with us, including your policy, claim, or our service, staff or handling of a complaint, please let us know. We’ll acknowledge your complaint and attempt to resolve it within 10 business days if we have all necessary information and have completed any investigation required. If further information or investigation is required, we’ll agree reasonable alternative timeframes with you.

Stage 1: Let Us Know

We want to resolve any complaint or dispute for you as quickly as possible. The best place to start is to contact our Customer Disputes and Resolution Team using the form below.

If you require specialist services or would like to speak to a complaints officer over the phone, you can contact us on +64 9 887 9428 and we will arrange for someone to return your call as soon as possible.

Stage 2: Contact Our Insurer

In the unlikely event that this does not resolve the matter, or you are not satisfied with the way your complaint has been dealt with, you should contact our Insurer:
