You’ve found your way to some of the most important documents we’ve ever written. Insurance is a tricky little thing and we try to make it as simple and easy for you as possible, but the law says we have to give you all the specific details of it in a Product Disclosure Statement (or PDS for short). You’ll soon find out they tell you everything about what’s covered, and what’s not, under Essentials by AAI’s car or contents insurance policies.

If you owe us money and you are experiencing financial hardship, you can ask us to assess whether we can give you assistance (this does not apply to payment of premiums under your policy). To access our financial hardship processes please contact us. We will ask you to complete this form detailing your financial situation.
