Before you buy from Sanlam Allianz in Namibia

  1. Check that the policy is issued by one of the companies above — the licensed entity, not only the brand.
  2. For motor cover, check the insurer, and the agent or broker who sells you the policy, on NAMFISA's register of registered institutions and intermediaries, or call NAMFISA toll-free on 0800 290 500.
  3. Ask for the schedule and the exclusions in writing, and compare them with at least one other insurer.
  4. Keep in mind the claim rule that applies to every insurer: the Financial Institutions and Markets Act sets no general deadline for paying a claim, so ask the insurer for its claims timeline in writing and keep copies of everything you send.
  5. If something goes wrong, complain to the insurer in writing, then to NAMFISA's Complaints Department (061 290 5134, toll-free 0800 290 500, complaintsdept@namfisa.com.na).
