I'm with Suncorp, and actually they are Pi$$ing me off at the moment because they refuse to do a simple thing lake an address change over the email because it as they say could be a security threat, so the reply came back with my original email containing the policy number and old and new address attached , I only have a Mobile phone and it would cost heaps by the time one presses 1 for this, press 2 for that , press 3 for a consultat....oh were sorry , all our consultants are busy right now and you know how it goes on and on,feel like letting it go

Doug- a smart guy would phone ther 1300 number from a payphone for 50c and all you need do is quote your ins number your name and your b day (sometime inthe 1800s) and make all the changes you want

I know full well what I could do but they do it my way or loose a customer, I am a customer am I not , I'm not just an object making the email contact , In this day and age we have email , it's fast, it's cheap , and why not make the best of it, anyhow that's my choice, they either come to the party or some other company will get the job.

It's your interests that they are trying to protect.

Hi GeorgieGirl,

These items are listed on policy as well. NRMA is my provider.

NRMA told me that they do not cover camping equipment including fridges.

So does my home and contents. I rang AAMI this morning and it does not cover the waeco or the annex that I might carry in the back of the car or on the roof of the car. Same as RACV for the car it does not cover me for the anything extra that is not a permanent fixture on the car.

It cover things like cameras, ipods, sporting equipment.

GeorgieGirl

sorry should have added that I also asked if the waeco and annex could be added to the policy and they said NO. They didn't know where I could get cover from so they referred me to the Insurance Omanssons (sorry incorrect spelling).

They didn't have an answer for me either. That why I started this thread.

GeorgieGirl, I'm also with AAMI (house, contents & car).

In June, I asked them about insuring my camping equipment just before our trip. They said that our contents insurance covered $1,000 outside the house, but that it doesn't cover camping equipment that is "in use".

Their example was that if the tent is packed up on the roof rack and the car crashed, it would be covered. But if the tent was up and was burnt down in a bushfire it wouldn't be covered.

Likewise the fridge, being always "in use", was not covered at any time.

I took my chances. There are others who will insure for camping gear (TCIS I think is the group that my brother-in-law uses).
