Hi,
I renewed my building/landlords insurance policy recently. I have both policies with the same insurer and am fairly happy with them so far.
In the post along with my annual renewal, there was a brochure for an add on component to the insurance - Tax Audit cover. It didnt have a price, and I couldnt be bothered calling up to ask, but apparently in the event that the insured person is audited by the ATO, they'll give you $1000 to cover costs relating to organising your tax affairs.
Is this useful to anyone in this country? I'm guessing maybe they just send it out and 1 in 1000 takes it on, and they make their money out of it. Playing the stats.
Anyone else heard of (or have) this?
