Our complaints process

We care about your experience

If you aren’t happy with your product or a service you’ve received from Allianz Australia, our partners, or our suppliers, let us know.

We’re here to work with you to reach a resolution.

We care about resolving your complaint in a fair and transparent manner. Here’s how you can make a complaint and what happens once we receive it.

If your concern is about a CTP claim, we have a different process. See our CTP claims complaint process.

The first step is to contact us and let us know your issue.

Choose a contact option below to make a complaint:

Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 9 PM AEDT
Saturday and Sunday, 8 AM to 5 PM AEDT

Allianz Australia Insurance Limited
GPO Box 4049
Sydney NSW 2001

If you need to make a complaint about CTP claims, we have a separate process.

Once we hear from you, our team will:

  • Acknowledge your complaint within one business day or as soon as practicable
  • Give you a complaint reference number
  • Update you on the status of your complaint at agreed times using your preferred contact method
  • Work with you to resolve your complaint within 30 calendar days

We’re committed to resolving your complaint within 30 days. If you don’t agree with our decision, one isn’t made in time, or it's simply your preference, you can seek an independent review.

Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA) is an external dispute resolution scheme, which is independent and free to you, subject to relevant terms and rules.

To get in touch with AFCA, you can:

Note: AFCA won't consider a complaint or dispute unless it is lodged before the earlier of the following time limits:

  • within two years of the date of our final IDR response; and
  • within six years of the date when you first became aware (or should reasonably have become aware) that you suffered the loss.

However, AFCA may still consider a complaint or dispute lodged after either of these time limits if it considers that exceptional circumstances apply.

CTP Insurance differs per state. For information on how to make a complaint about your CTP claim, select your state below.
