RACV Home Contents Policy. I read in the PDS that there exists within the policy basic valuables up to $2500 and basic portables up to $10000. Anything in excess of these amounts may be insured for an optional additional premium. Could you please clarify for me ?
Hi Megan,
That’s correct. RACV offers separate optional cover for some items under ‘Valuable Items Cover’ and ‘Portable Items Cover’ if you want to insure them for more than $10,000 for Portable Items and $2,500 for Valuable Items inside the home.
If you want to insure any one item for more than the said amounts, you’ll need to list the item and its sum assured. You may be asked by RACV to provide a written valuation for each item.
Please reach out to RACV directly if you want to increase your level of cover for these categories.
I hope this helps,
Cheers,
James
