just wanting to know everyones thoughts on the large increase in fees .its a big jump i think just for 2 claims? what happens if we get 5 claims against aksa?

The number of claims could be irrelevant if there were one big one. Fact is I don't want to lose my house if I take someone out so that insurance is worth a hell of a lot more to me than $65.

In the light of discussions on douche bag behaviour/bans/regulation etc in WA in particular I would be interested to know more about the types of claims that have caused the premium hike.

Is there anything that can be done to avoid claims being made? God forbid we have to start a Risk Management thread!

I agree even if it is $100 a yr its not much for peace of mind

if someone without insurance breaks ur neck wat happens there? U have to sue them?

A few things - yes. One the state rep board has initiated immediately is that all claims are to be lodged thru AKSA.
At least one possibly avoidable claim was carried thru by the insurer without our approval or input.
AND we had precious little time to investigate alternatives for this season without leaving members uninsured for a time - obviously completely unacceptable.
Every board rep is now making every enquiry possible so that we will have a complete folio of possibilities open to us before next seasons premium falls due.

Existing members who have - or do join or renew before 1/1/11 - should appreciate that AKSA and every state has contributed heavily to give them the opportunity to get at least this years cover at the previous enjoyed and extremely low rate.

Price go's up for 12g claim yet they say two 150+ are
In the pipe line cant wait to see the increase then

Thanks for causing this dumb ass

How much do you pay to insure your car every year???

ROFL- er considering how many people drive and the cost of some cars on the road, and the damage they can cause to public and private property, I think that has nothing to do with kiting even as a comparison.
