PRACTICAL GUIDE

Compare the options before you choose

Choose the type of cover first

Compare the specific policy you need, such as motor, home, business, life or health cover. A group brand and its insurance subsidiary may have different names. Confirm the underwriting company and check its current authorisation with NAICOM.

Read benefits and exclusions together

Request the policy wording and compare limits, excesses, exclusions, waiting periods and renewal terms. Ask the insurer to explain what documentation is required for a claim and how to report one. A headline premium does not show the whole policy.

Compare like-for-like quotations

Give shortlisted insurers the same information and compare the same scope of cover. Use official company channels to confirm payment details and obtain policy documentation. Ask for written answers to questions before accepting a quotation.
