As of 14 June 2025, Swann Insurance no longer offers new insurance policies and will continue to serve our customers who already have an insurance policy with us and provide further information at renewal time.

They were the go-to for bike insurance back in the day.
This is what happens with corporate consolidation, I guess.

Thanks for the heads up Bodø, I'm with Swann Insurance and have been for years, but I guess that is coming to an end.
Hopefully NRMA will offer similarly priced policies :X
Cheers

I jumped to Swann last year after the RAA's premiums took a massive hike so I equally concerned as to how this will go.

I'm with Shannon Insurance
They were brilliant when I had my off in 2018
But for some reason I changed to Youi Insurance
But swapped back to Shannon Insurance earlier this year
They were a little dearer than Youi but with the NT1100 and Spyder linked I'm glad I returned
Peace of mind I think
But hopefully I don't have to put in a claim
Just my 2cents worth

The ST1300 is with Swann, as it has been for a number of years. There was some difficulty with my claim after my 2023 incicent and their assessor declared it a repaible write-off, but everything was resolved to my satisfaction, so I renewed with them when all repairs were completed and it was back on the road. In the interim, the replacement ST1300 was with Swann.
I received an email from Swann last week. Checked my policy on-line, it's current to 25 May 2026, guess I'll be shopping around at some time before then.
-
I also have two policies with them.
Had a letter dated 3 June saying they are transferring my policies from their current insurer, being, ( Insurance Australia Ltd ) to ( Insurance Manufacturers Australia P/L ). Note the P/L.
This is, I guess, the underwriters of the policies, new or otherwise.
This is subject to A Federal Court decision, which they expect around July 31, 2025.
No other detail in the letter about a merger or a sale.
if you would like a copy of the letter, pm me your email, and I`ll send it through.
Another 2c worth.

No letters for me yet but then again I haven't checked my GPO Box since last weekend.

The advice to me was an email with a pdf attached.

Swann have always used Aus Post with me.
May have set that up at the start.
Been with them for about 8 years now. Always in the mailbox.

Could be that long for me too. Applied on-line, most have an option to receive correspondence via snail mail or email, I usually tick the email box.
