Is this policy for me?
Hijackings, accidents and theft happen, especially if you often travel through high risk areas. You never know when you might be a victim of crime.
When the unfortunate happens, Adcover will make sure you don’t pull on the short end of the straw.
This policy will settle the shortfall between what your comprehensive car insurance pays out and the debt you still owe to the finance house (bank) in order to pay off your car. We will not pay more than R500 000.
This policy has your shortfall sorted.
Is this policy not what you’re looking for?
What is provided for?
This refers to the shortfall amount between your debt to the Finance house (bank) and the amount paid by your motor comprehensive insurer for a total loss claim.
If the amount paid by your motor insurer is less than the market value of the car, we will pay the difference between the market value and the outstanding debt due at the date of the loss.
Maximum of R500 000
Where we have agreed to settle your shortfall claim, we will also contribute towards the excess under your motor comprehensive insurance policy for which you are responsible for, up to a maximum of R6 000
Maximum of R6 000
In the event of your accidental death or permanent total disability caused directly by an accident involving the car noted in the schedule, we will pay up to a maximum benefit of R20 000.
We will pay up to a maximum of R2,500
If your comprehensive motor insurer rejects your claim due to your unintentional failure to comply with a policy condition, we will pay for the reasonable repair costs. We will pay the market value or the sum insured shown in the schedule, whichever is less.
If the car is beyond economical repair or is stolen or hijacked and not recovered within 30 days, we will pay the market value or the sum insured shown in the schedule, whichever is less.
