OUTsurance and the HELP@OUT Service

Posted by on Jul 7, 2009 in OUTsurance | 0 comments

If you’ve scanned this site before, you might know I’m a member of OUTsurance. The reason for that is because they’re way, WAY cheaper (for me) than ANY other insurance provider in South Africa. I know this because I phoned around for a couple of quotes recently and I ended up moving all my insurance to OUTsurance. You can read more about that here: “OUTsurance saved me R500 a month”As with most people, I am VERY quick to complain (read my Coricraft reviews), but not so quick when it comes to giving good reviews. But today, I just had to write another great...

OUTsurance and Vehicle Tracking Devices

Posted by on Apr 18, 2007 in OUTsurance | 0 comments

There’s an interesting story over at Wheels24 titled “Tracking devices explained“. In nice, simple English it explains the differences between the different vehicle tracking devices and how installing one can affect your insurance premium. They also talk about the benefits of each tracking company (such as Matrix, Tracker, Netstar, etc.), how much each one costs for installation and it’s monthly subscription. Here’s what they say regarding OUTsurace: Having a tracking system in your car also has insurance benefits. Outsurance will not insure your car if it is not...

Tidy Up or be Robbed

At least, that’s how the Urban Legend goes… To be exact (and to quote this news story: “The colour of litter, a code for burglars, insurer says“):In South Africa the colour of the litter on the pavement outside your house could contain clues as to whether your home is being staked out by robbers, according to an insurance firm. A green object, such as a beer bottle, could be a signal to thieves to ‘go ahead, the coast is clear,’ whereas a red object, such as a Coca-Cola can, could be a sign to ‘steer well clear.’Now, whether you choose to...

OUTsurance cancels cover

Posted by on Mar 7, 2007 in OUTsurance | 0 comments

Ok, not really related to much around here, but I just read this article about how OUTsurance cancelled a client’s insurance due to the person claiming too much. According to the article:There are 3 groups:Those who are claim free Those who claim within expected norms Those who claim excessivelySo, if you’re good, you pay less… Not really cool, but that’s life for heavy claimers, but that’s nice for the non-claimers, in a way. Hmmm… I just hope OUTsurance covers me properly when I need them. Share on...

OUTsurance proves themselves

Posted by on Mar 2, 2007 in OUTsurance | 0 comments

If you’ve read my post on how “OUTsurance saved me R500 a month” you might be thinking that I have a bit of a biased opinion about OUTsurance. Then you might read the comment by the other reader telling me that “if you pay for the cheapest product, you will be getting the cheapest cover“. The fact that he works for a competing insurance company doesn’t really help his argument. (I noticed this by his e-mail address he used to comment with).Anyway, you have GOT to read this article about how OUTsurance’s 24 hour assistance really beat out...
