Insurance premium increase inconsistency

Chris from Mairehau

Hi all, I recently got my annual contents insurance renewal, and let out a few words that cannot be repeated here when I read my premium had increased 23% for the next year, now 40% in 3 years. So I looked at what I own, and calculated I could drop the insured value by 30% - I rang the insurer and … View moreHi all, I recently got my annual contents insurance renewal, and let out a few words that cannot be repeated here when I read my premium had increased 23% for the next year, now 40% in 3 years. So I looked at what I own, and calculated I could drop the insured value by 30% - I rang the insurer and asked them to recalculate based on the new number, and they advised that they could reduce the premium by only 9%. I do not accept that a 30+% reduction in insured value, equating to only a 9% reduction in premium, is arrived at using their standard calculation tables - I believe they are applying non linear "adjustments" (lets call them "spite adjustments"), to spite us for wanting to reduce upward spiraling premium increases, AKA to keep sucking us dry. I'd like to hear the stories of others who have tried as I have to reduce their premiums but have been offered what is frankly an insultingly measly reduction in premium for such a significant decrease in insured value - EDIT - the insurer made over A$100M in profit in the prior fiscal year, I'm with AA

Watch out for SCAMS

Neighbourly is aware that online safety is front of mind for members, and scams are getting more tricky to spot. So we thought we'd share some tips from Netsafe to keep you informed about what to avoid and where to get help.

Where do scams take place?
Over the phone, via text message, via email, online or even in person.

What red flags should you be looking out for? Ask yourself these questions...
- Were you expecting this message? or was it out of the blue?
- Are they saying there's a problem which you didn't anticipate?
- Are you having to give money over?
- Are you being rushed?
- Are you being told to click on a link or go to an unfamiliar website?
- Are you being asked to share personal info or passwords?
- Are you being asked to pay in a strange way like wire transfer, gift cards, etc
- Does something not feel right? Do you feel confused?

If you answer yes to any of these questions, it's best to stop communicating and seek support. But if you've already given over money, contact your bank immediately.

You can check if it's a scam by contacting |Netsafe|:
- Toll-free on 0508 NETSAFE (0508 638 723) or +6496660840 if calling from outside New Zealand
- Emailing help@netsafe.org.nz

If you're pretty sure it's a scam, make a report at netsafe.org.nz

Remember Neighbourly is a free service for neighbours so we won't ask you for money or for your password. All emails will come from noreply@neighbourly.co.nz - so feel free to get in touch if you're unsure of something!

Hope this helps you, neighbours!

Poll: What could the Christchurch City Council fund if it didn't have to pay GST on rates?

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Christchurch mayor Phil Mauger says GST on rates, currently taken by central government, would be better spent locally.

The comments follow an Infometrics analysis that found over $1.1 billion of rates revenue nationwide was collected by the Government in 2022 as GST.

Christchurch mayor Phil Mauger says GST on rates, currently taken by central government, would be better spent locally.

The comments follow an Infometrics analysis that found over $1.1 billion of rates revenue nationwide was collected by the Government in 2022 as GST.

According to Infometrics, $88.5m of that came from Christchurch city ratepayers. It would be enough to save the Christ Church Cathedral from ruin; restore the Dux de Lux seven times over; cover both the Art Centre and Orana Wildlife Park’s request for regular public funding for over 26 years; contribute to light rail in Greater Christchurch; or get the South Library rebuild completed.
