The Woolworths Comprehensive Car Insurance policy offers cover at a price tag you’ll love. Not only does Woolworths give you a number of ways to save on your premium, including up to a 15% discount on your first premium when you apply online and via the Woolies Drive Less Pay Less option, it also provides an extensive range of cover for your car. It's no wonder this car insurance policy took out a 2020 Mozo Experts Choice Award for Exceptional Value Car Insurance!
Woolworths Comprehensive Car Insurance covers you for damage, loss or vandalism for your car, and the personal items in it. You’ll have cover up to $500 for personal property and up to $1,000 to replace stolen keys and locks. And if your car is written off within 24 months of rego your policy will cover you for a new one.
In an emergency, this policy allows for up to $500 in emergency repairs without assessment, reasonable towing costs and up to $500 for emergency accommodation or travel if you’re stranded 200km or more from home.
Roadside assistance is available as an added extra, and so is the option to have cover for a rental car after an accident or to reduce your windscreen excess, each of which comes with an extra premium.
When it comes to paying your premium, you have the option to pay monthly, but it will cost a bit extra. You can also choose your level of excess – a higher excess means a lower upfront premium and vice versa.
There are also a couple of great discounts you can snag. This includes 15% off when you apply online and are over 25 years old. Plus, there's the option to nominate how many kilometres you’ll drive to limit the cover you’re paying for through the Drive Less Pay Less scheme.
Woolies Comprehensive Car Insurance is great for Aussie drivers looking to bag a bargain. And if you’re someone who only uses your car on weekends or doesn’t do that many kilometres, then the Drive Less Pay Less option makes this one even more wallet-friendly.
One big drawback with this policy is that there’s no option for safe drivers to score a no claims discount. But the other thing you might want to keep an eye on is the excess for unlisted, inexperienced or young drivers, which can range from $800 to $2,600.

They were very fast in raising the premium no thinking that majority of people either have lost their job or working reduced hours

Worst service ever. Waited an hour on the phone to speak to someone and still no response; could not get through on online chat at all; sent an email and no response for 48hours, when responded did not answer my question in any logical way. Would give me Car Insurance for a property where the car is stored in a B3 Basement, but would not cover me for Contents insurance on Level 17 as I am in a flood zone... seriously? I cancelled and still my payment was taken, still waiting for a refund. Worst Service Ever.

Always friendly to talk to and nothing is a problem when I talk to them. Their premium is excellent compared to other companies.
