When comparing insurance quotes, check that each quote covers the same risks, sum insured, excess and optional extras so the prices are genuinely comparable. Read the product disclosure statement (PDS) for exclusions, limits, waiting periods and claim conditions, rather than relying on the headline premium alone. Consider the insurer’s financial strength, claims process and customer service, as well as whether a higher excess or bundled policy suits your circumstances. A comparison website can help you gather options, but confirm the final cover, price and eligibility directly with the insurer or a licensed insurance adviser.
