We are continuing to feel the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 and the financial pinch more than ever. However, a new year means new goals and making new and positive changes in our personal lives or careers.
Financial Goals
Financial goals are often on the top of our new year resolution list. Planning for the future, saving, and paying off debt, sound familiar? Clearing existing debt and remaining debt-free means planning and being responsible to avoid unnecessary financial strains.

How to avoid excess
Rodel4U understands life can be uncertain, accidents happen, crime is a reality, and some things are out of our control. Being responsible and putting the right precautions in place means you will not need to claim unnecessarily.
The different types of insurance cover mean the amount of excess payable when claiming excess will differ. Rodel4U is here to provide some essential tips and advice you can do to avoid putting in a claim.
Let us look at each policy cover with some helpful and easy to follow tips

Remember the benefit of an insurance policy is to cover you in your time of loss when you cannot afford to pay for repairs/replacements yourself. However, one does not always have funds available for the excess portion payable of the claim.
