What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Strata owners in Adelaide describe a service built around what happens once a claim is lodged rather than the policy wording alone. Several accounts focus on a vehicle crashing through a client's unit, with the state manager taking the call, authorising urgent repairs, arranging quality contractors and bringing in a loss adjuster to oversee the engineering work and reconstruction so the property was back on track within days. A detail many reviews return to is the value offered on strata cover, including one owner who had held cover elsewhere for years before a quote produced a substantial saving and switched as a result.

The core work is strata insurance for residential and commercial buildings, and the same themes recur across the feedback: rapid mobilisation after an incident, plain explanations of each step, and steady communication while repairs are arranged. The named state manager is singled out for personal involvement at the most stressful moments, and that direct handling shapes how the service is remembered by owners who have needed it during difficult periods for their buildings.

They are happy to raise your premiums and excesses when they want to, but don’t expect them to payout a claim fairly when it comes time. You will also need to deal with unempathetic claims managers who won’t give you the light of day to understand what you are trying to tell them, and if you want to raise a complaint to AFCA, don’t bother because SCI will just request them to throw out the complaint. Horrible company with horrible values, wouldn’t recommend this insurer for anyone.

We don't need insurance until the day we do! My Friday evening was interrupted by a vehicle driving through a clients unit and the only number I had on hand was that of the state manager who was truly wonderful in helping to get the immediate repairs authorized and underway with quality contractors and getting the loss adjuster in straight away to manage the engineering and rebuilding so that by Tuesday everything is on track to get back to normality. It is wonderful to be able to deal with people who truly care about their clients and thank you to Ben and the team for continuing to prove that the clients come first and while incidents will continue to occur, having SCI in your corner is a great start toward repair.
