Commonly asked questions

What are the different types of home insurance I can get with Huddle?
  • Home insurance
  • Contents insurance 
  • Home and contents insurance 
What does accidental damage mean?

Accidental damage means damage caused unintentionally to your home, if you have Home Insurance with this cover option, or contents, if you have Contents Insurance with this cover option. Accidental damage can cover things like your favourite vase breaking or your hallway wall being damaged as you’re moving your new couch in.

You will be covered for accidental damage if you choose the Comprehensive Cover option or Huddle Black for your policy.

Some things are excluded, like scratching, chipping or denting, caused by normal use. See the relevant Product Disclosure Statement for more information.

Under the Basic Cover option, you will still be covered for accidental glass breakage. Policy terms do apply.

Can I pay my premium monthly?

Yes. You can choose to pay monthly for your home insurance, or save by paying annually.

I’m going on holiday, what do I need to do?

It's important to let us know if your home will be unoccupied for a period of more than 100 consecutive days. If you tell us, we may be able to provide cover during this period subject to certain conditions for your home being unoccupied. See the section titled ‘Leaving your home unoccupied’ in the Huddle Home & Contents Insurance Product Disclosure Statement for details.

We do not provide cover where your whole home is rented out on Airbnb or similar shorter term rental (even if it's just while you're on holiday).

What’s the difference between Home Insurance and Contents Insurance?
  • Home Insurance is for homeowners who live in their home and want insurance for their building and fixtures. It covers the residential buildings, domestic outbuildings, fixtures, services like electricity, water and gas at the insured site, permanently installed swimming pools and paved driveways etc.
  • Contents Insurance is for homeowners living in their home or renters renting a home who want insurance for their things. Contents include things like art, watches, jewellery, sporting equipment, carpets, rugs, furniture, electronics, bicycles, portable musical instruments and more.
I’m a landlord, can I use this policy?

No, our policies are not designed for landlords.

  • Huddle Home Insurance is designed for owner-occupiers who want insurance for their home.
  • Huddle Contents Insurance is designed for homeowners, owners of strata-titled residential properties or renters, who want insurance for their contents.
  • Huddle Home & Contents Insurance is designed for owner-occupiers who want insurance for both their home and contents.
