Am I covered if I am overseas?

What is the Premium Rate Freeze?

Generally, life insurance premiums go up each year as you get older – but with Aussie Accident Plan™, the rate at which your premium is calculated is frozen at the age you are when your Policy starts, for the first three years, if you continuously hold your Policy during that time.

This means that just because you get older, the rate at which your premium is calculated will not increase for those first three years. Plus, the Premium Rate Freeze™ will also apply to any optional benefits that you take out at the same time as your Accident Insurance, and for any automatic sum insured increases you accept.

Please note that the Premium Rate Freeze™ is not applicable if you apply for a higher benefit amount, or if you add an optional benefit after Accident Insurance has commenced. Actual premiums payable are subject to increase each year with CPI. Please refer to your Product Disclosure Statement for full terms and conditions.

Can I decide who receives the death benefit on my policy?

Yes - you can nominate up to 5 beneficiaries as part of your Aussie Accident Plan™ policy, simply by downloading, completing and returning a beneficiary form.

Can the insurer cancel my policy if I get sick?

No - your Aussie Accident Plan™ policy can continue until age 75, no matter what changes with your health or lifestyle.
