Auckland, 22 November 2021 – Outstanding customer service has helped AA Insurance secure two golds in the 2022 Reader's Digest Quality Service Awards (QSA).

With scores of 74 out of 100 for its home and contents insurance (three points up from 2021), and 73 for its car insurance, the general insurer topped the rankings in the insurance category for these products.

“This is the eighth consecutive year we have won gold for car insurance, and our second consecutive year in the top spot for home and contents insurance, after winning gold and silver in equal measure since 2015,” says AA Insurance Chief Executive, Chris Curtin. “It’s a reflection of our team’s absolute commitment to providing exceptional customer outcomes with every interaction.”

The awards highlight companies that go above and beyond their customers’ expectations, asking respondents to score (out of 10) their experience across different industry categories based on five key pillars of service: personalisation, simplicity, consistency, understanding and satisfaction.

“Our focus at AA Insurance is on caring for and looking after our customers, so to be recognised and appreciated by them in this way is incredible,” says Chris.
