Help & support for insurance

To make an insurance claim you'll need your policy number and the time, date and details of the event – whether it be a car accident, home damage or lost/stolen property.

For car insurance claims, you'll also need the details of any other people involved in the incident including their name, address and registration number, contact details and any relevant documents.

With insurance through P&N Bank, you can choose to pay your premium fortnightly, monthly or yearly – the choice is yours.

If you want to pay yearly up front, you can choose to pay by direct debit or BPAY. If you choose to pay fortnightly or monthly you can pay by direct debit. 

You will choose your payment method and frequency when you take out the policy.

You'll receive your insurance policy renewal in the mail a few weeks before your policy is due to expire. Please make sure your contact details are up-to-date and advise us of any changes to your personal circumstances or the insured asset, as this may require changes to your policy.

If you're making monthly or quarterly direct debit payments on your policy, and are happy with your policy renewal information, you don't need to do anything. Your policy will automatically renew  at the new premium amount advised. If you pay annually, you'll need to arrange payment of the premium amount quoted.
 
If you would like to speak to someone about your policy renewal, or make changes to your policy,  please call us on 13 25 77 and one of the team will be happy to help.

The price of car insurance is based on several factors, including the likelihood of a claim being made on your policy in the future.

There are several factors considered when calculating premiums including:

• pricing factors, for example: the value of your vehicle, the age, make, and model of your vehicle, where your vehicle is kept, and what it is used for. Your premium is also affected by the age, driving experience and claims history of the drivers, 
• policy options,
• minimum and maximum premium amounts,
• government charges, such as Goods and Service Tax and stamp duty, and
• any discounts you may be eligible for.

This is not an exhaustive list of our pricing factors and we may add or remove factors at any time.
