Santam Insurance PDF Print E-mail
Santam Insurance is part of the Sanlam Insurance company and offers a full range of short-term insurance policies from 'all risks' to homeowners, home content and vehicle insurance.

Vehicle insurance

The vehicle insurance offers comprehensive insurance, limited insurance(fire and theft) and 'theft exluded' insurance.

Santam warn that the most your insurer will pay out is the value for which your vehicle is insured, or the reasonable market value of your vehicle, whichever is LESS.

It advises you check the current value or your vehicle at least once a year with your insurer or broker to avoid paying a premium that is greater than needed.

Over-insurance does not lead to payouts above the current value of your vehicle. Instead it leads to money wasted on excessive premiums.

Homeowners insurance

In respect of homeowners insurance, Santam warn that your house or building must be insured for its replacement or rebuilding value, not its market value. Failure to do so can lead to your being unable to replace or repair the damaged building.
