COTA (Council on the Ageing) exists to enhance the quality of life and well-being of older Australians. Within each State and Territory there is a COTA office dedicated to this cause, providing benefits and services for their local constituents. For over 60 years, COTA has been the peak body advocating for seniors' rights and interests to all levels of government, business and in the community at large.
The funds raised by COTA Insurance support COTA's work in these important areas, along with programs that can improve the health and wellbeing, social connectivity and participation of older people. The COTA network entered into the insurance business in the 1980's, after recognising clear gaps in the insurance market for older Australians.

Rang today for a quote on a caravan to find they do not offer AGREED VALUE anymore. Shame; if they had they may just have got all our insurance business - 2 vehicles, caravan, home and contents. WARNING: if you value your possessions and take care of them, then DO NOT accept MARKET VALUE for anything you insure. Doing this puts you at the mercy of… a company assessor and they usually take the lowest mean value of the product you are claiming on and I for one, do not trust insurers in this area. Make sure you insure only for AGREED VALUE. You may pay a little more but you have the peace of

Today I received first class help from Rebecca in Hutt St Office. She was attentive, interested, helpful and knew her product well. It took me about ten minutes to read her email and decide to accept the quote. It was excellent to work with a friendly, helpful and polite real person. A job well done.👯♀️👍⭐️😇

I recommend COTA insurance as I have been with them for the last 20 years for house and vehicle insurance, they have always been very helpful with any enquiry I’ve had especially in keeping the premium cost down to help suit my budget, a special thank you to Karen that spent a few hours with me last week in changing my insurance to help suit my budget better really appreciate all the help you’ve provided me 😊

Today I received excellent customer service from Rebecca at COTA. My automatic payments had stopped and I was three months behind. Rebecca went above and beyond to be negotiable with helping me catch up and restart my policy.
Another reason that I choose to stay with COTA is because it’s a non-profit organisation which keeps premiums very competitive.
Thank you Rebecca for having my back and for being delightful to work with. I’ll be letting my friends know how satisfied and relieved I am that my insurance is with you.

I have just rearranged my home insurance due to a move back to Victoria from NSW. Tom was friendly, efficient and careful in explaining precisely the transactions required and to explain each step. This was all completed so well and the documents arrived in my Inbox to confirm the transactions. I then went on to purchase Travel Insurance for our… holiday overseas in a few months time. A very different requirement, but again proficiency and friendliness shown. The policy is excellent and well laid out. All conveniently paid by credit card on the spot and once again all the documents arrived

Absolutely discusted and appalled with COTA, i rang to change my policy ( to remove one vehicle but replace with another) and update to full comprehensive on both my vehicles plus i had home and contents as well only to be given a quoted amount for all 4 policies, then for the girl to turn around after i said yes to the quote that no i cant have… it as she made a mistake and will not honour the quote... well that mistake is her mistake and not mine so i should have been able to receive the cover at the quoted price.. but no you wouldnt honour it.. bad form & business COTA will never

Great cover and service! Unfortunately I had a fall on a broken step at a market and broke my hip. I had to spend 10 days in hospital which dampened my trip to say the least. Thankfully all my medical expenses were covered by your travel insurance. I was even upgraded to business class for my return trip to Australia! Thanks again, I will never leave home without my COTA travel insurance!!
