Frequently asked questions

  • The Home Building Calculator makes it easy to estimate the cost to rebuild the current building at a specific address.

  • If you pay by direct debit (via BSB and account number or by VISA/Mastercard), your general insurances will automatically renew unless you cancel your policy. CGU will provide you a renewal statement 14 days before your policy restarts, to allow sufficient time for you to make updates. 

    If you pay your policies via BPAY, CGU will send you a new biller code with your renewal paperwork, 1 month before your policy ends. You must pay this before the due date if you wish to renew your policy.

  • The quickest and easiest way to make a claim for my general insurances is to contact CGU directly on 13 22 94. Claims can be lodged 24 hours / 7 days a week.

    Enquiries on existing claims can be made from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm local time.
