Centriq Life Contact Details
The Centriq Life contact number is +27 11 268 6490 and the general email address is info@centriq.co.za. Centriq Life Insurance Company Limited is a South African life insurer and a Santam group company. If your policy is from The Unlimited (TUG), call The Unlimited on 0861 990 000 first. It is worth being precise about which Centriq entity your policy sits with, because two separate licensed companies share the same offices and contact details. Everything below was read from the Centriq website on 31 August 2026 and checked again on 26 September 2026.

- General enquiries: info@centriq.co.za

Centriq’s footer now lists two complaint lines, and choosing correctly saves a redirection. A dispute about a claim decision goes to claimscomplaints@centriq.co.za, and a dispute about the advice you were given when the policy was sold goes to faiscomplaints@centriq.co.za. The Unlimited’s list of insurers gives complaints@centriq.co.za and 011 268 6490 for Centriq Life complaints.
What this organisation provides
Centriq publishes two licensed entities in its own footer, and the distinction decides which company your complaint names:
- Centriq Life Insurance Company Limited, FSP 7370 – an insurer conducting life insurance business
- Centriq Insurance Company Limited, FSP 3417 – an insurer conducting non-life insurance business
Check your policy schedule for which of these underwrites your cover, and quote that company and FSP number when you complain. They share a switchboard and an address, so the contact details are the same either way, but a complaint must name the right licensed insurer, and naming the wrong one delays the file.
Centriq works largely through cell captive arrangements and underwriting managing agents rather than selling directly to the public. A cell captive is, in Centriq own description, a kind of virtual insurance company owned and controlled jointly by the client and the cell captive insurer, created by issuing a separate class of preference shares alongside an agreement.
That matters practically. If you hold a policy underwritten by Centriq, you probably bought it from another brand entirely, and the day-to-day servicing – quotes, claims, statements – is usually handled by that brand or its underwriting manager rather than by Centriq. Contact whoever is named on your policy document first. Centriq is the licensed insurer standing behind the product, and is the right destination once the administrator has failed to resolve something.
Centriq Life TUG contact details
TUG is The Unlimited Group (Pty) Ltd, FSP 21473. It sells and administers The Unlimited policies whose death, accident and disability benefits are underwritten by Centriq Life. The Unlimited describes itself as the administrator of your policy, your membership and other non-insurance benefits, so servicing, claims and cancellations for a Centriq Life TUG policy go to The Unlimited first: call 0861 990 000, Monday to Saturday 07:00 to 19:00, or email customercare@theunlimited.co.za. The Unlimited also runs a 24/7 WhatsApp chatbot linked from its Talk to us page. See Centriq Life Unlimited contact details for more.
Under a section 50 Insurance Act transfer, the insurer on The Unlimited products covering death, accidents and disability changed from Centriq Insurance to Centriq Life. The benefits did not change.
Centriq funeral cover
Centriq does not sell funeral cover to the public and publishes no funeral line of its own. It underwrites for funeral and church schemes through cell-captive partners, so funeral cover underwritten by Centriq is sold and serviced by the brand named on your policy, for example The Unlimited on 0861 990 000.
Centriq Life cancellation
Neither Centriq nor The Unlimited publishes a cancellation procedure. Cancel through the administrator named on your policy; for The Unlimited, call 0861 990 000 or email customercare@theunlimited.co.za.
Address and operating information
- Address: The Oval, Second Floor, West Wing, Wanderers Office Park, 52 Corlett Drive, Illovo, Johannesburg
Centriq does not publish call centre operating hours, which is consistent with a business whose counterparties are mostly other companies rather than individual consumers. The +27 11 number is a Johannesburg geographic line, charged as a normal call.
Before contacting Centriq, have your policy number, the name of the brand or administrator you bought the policy from, and the date and reference of any complaint you have already lodged with them.
Support and escalation routes
Work through the administrator named on your policy, then Centriq using the correct complaint mailbox above, keeping references and dates at each step.
State clearly whether your complaint is against Centriq Life Insurance Company Limited or the administrator that sold and services the policy. In a cell captive arrangement those are different companies.
