Popular Post perconrad Posted March 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 27, 2023 After having my Fortuner insured by Roojai for 2 years they informed me again this year that they would charge my card for the renewal. Several days after the renewal date I noticed that the premium were not charged to my account and I contacted Roojai. The excuse was that since I now was over 75 years they could not renew my insurance. And then I was on holiday 600 km from home with an expired insurance. Roojai did not inform me before the insurance expired, that they would not renew. One month later the insurance with Roojai for our Pick-Up in my wife's name (she is not 75) were up for renewal and that we did not renew with Roojai, but also found a new insurer for that car. So if you have insurance with Roojai and are near 75 years of age, then take care that you one day don't have an insurance on your car. 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etaoin Shrdlu Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 One of a professional, independent insurance broker's obligations is to inform their client of upcoming renewals and any changes in terms, conditions or premium that are expected. Non-renewal due to age is something that should be caught by a good broker well in advance and advised to their client and alternative insurers' products offered. After all, an insurance broker is the agent of their client, not the insurance company, and has obligations towards their client. I am not sure how an insurance broker that has an insurance company as one of their owners and who has only that one insurer to place their clients' auto insurance with could be expected perform in this manner.

No i thought you said that Roojai said you were not covered by your voluntary class 1 insurance because of your age so what I am saying you would still be insured while still valid by date on the CTPL it is a separate policy.

OK then. I asked Roojai if they could issue me another insurance, but they declined and did not offer me a compulsory insurance. But now I have the insurance with AXA and they laughed when I told them that Roojai would not insure my car because I was more than 75. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigelforbes Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 If you make changes to your policy, such as where you take your vehicle for repairs, a new video inspection is required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the AXA premium compared to your last roojai premium. Did AXA honour any discounts (NCB or non-claims bonus) from your previous roojai coverage?

nigelforbes Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 The big thing for me about Roojai is that they offer 5 mill. third party coverage for death whereas all the others only offer 1 or 2 mill., that's a really important part of the policy for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I did not get my 50 % discount from Roojai with me to AXA. FWIW the insured value of my truck is 75K more using Roojai than any of the alternatives, it's worth far more dead than alive! Also, the death liability is 5 mill using Roojai and only 1 or 2 mill. with all the others, that was the clincher for me. Finally, my premium under Roojai is about 5k cheaper than the alternatives. The things I don't like as well are that Roojai starts issuing reminders to reinsure, three or four months before the expiration date, SMS and email. Even if you agree, you still can't stop the messages. We fell out badly on this point but I couldn't find a better deal elsewhere. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
