Best contact route by issue

• Billing & Payments: Enquiries regarding premium deductions or payment updates should be handled via the customer portal or dedicated service team.
• Disputes & Complaints: If a query is unresolved through standard customer care, formal dispute channels must be used.

Complaints

If you encounter an issue that standard support cannot resolve, South Africa’s structured consumer protection and insurance framework applies.

1. Direct Resolution: Contact Auto and General’s dedicated complaints and dispute resolution tier via email at [email protected] or call 0860 07 23 27. Ensure you record all reference numbers, dates, and copies of correspondence.
2. External Escalation: If the provider fails to resolve the matter satisfactorily within the prescribed statutory timeframe, you have the right to escalate the dispute to the Ombudsman for Short-Term Insurance (OSTI) or the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA).

Fraud or escalation routes

Safeguarding your policy against fraudulent activities is vital. If you suspect insurance fraud, policy impersonation scams, or unauthorized debit orders, report it immediately.

Never share your banking PINs, passwords, or sensitive personal data over unverified communication channels.

• Exact dates, times, and reference numbers from any previous interactions.
• Supporting documentation, such as incident reports, photos, screenshots, or official correspondence relevant to your case.
