Terms and Conditions

Summary of the Seetsa Finance Terms and Conditions

The insurance cover is underwritten by BrightRock Life Limited, a licensed financial services provider and insurer (Registration number 1996/014618/09, FSP Number is 11643) administered by Executive Underwriting Managers CC.
Your spouse or your other nominated dependants can keep this cover after your death: If you were to pass away, your surviving spouse or your other nominated dependants can choose to carry on with the policy and become the main member. They must contact the parlour within 31 days of your passing if they want to make this change.
Maximum entry ages: The maximum entry ages for you and your dependants are 65 and 21 for children (25 if the child is a full-time student).
Number of dependent children allowed on your plan: Up to six own children are allowed on the contemporary benefits included in your premium as the main member.
Waiting period: Your policy has to be in place for a specific waiting period before you or your dependants can claim. The waiting periods on this cover are six months for new dependants and re-joiners. No waiting period applies for reinstatements, unless you were still in your waiting period when your policy lapsed. You will then have to complete the duration of the waiting period still outstanding.
How you pay your premium to the parlour: You can pay your premiums using a debit order, stop order, cash, Pay@ or Flash. Premiums must be paid by the 15th of each month.
How to claim: You must submit your valid claims to the parlour within six months from the date of death. You must provide the parlour with all the required documents before BrightRock can process your claim.
You must provide the parlour with accurate information: BrightRock will cancel your policy immediately and will not pay any claims if it is found that you intentionally gave false or inaccurate information.
Maximum cover amounts: The amount paid out under this policy is limited to a maximum rand amount. This will depend on the plan you selected, which may not exceed R30 000 in total.
Grace premium period: BrightRock will cancel your cover and that of all your dependants if you don’t pay your premiums within 15 days after the due date.
Lapse of cover: Your policy will lapse if you fail to make two consecutive premium payments. The policy may be reinstated by resuming premium payments within 3 months of the last premium payment so long as all arrear payments are made. No waiting periods will apply for reinstatements.
Cancelling or replacing your policy: You can cancel your policy. You’ll lose all of your benefits if you cancel the policy. You must give the Parlour one month’s written notice before the effective date of the cancellation.

How to make changes to your policy: Please contact Seetsa Finance (Pty) Ltd if you would like to make any changes to your benefit or change your contact information.
Premium guarantee period: BrightRock guarantees that your premiums and benefits will stay the same for the first 24 months. After that, BrightRock reserves the right to review and adjust premium and premium growth patterns at policy anniversary. Seetsa Finance (Pty) Ltd will send you written notice of any changes to your policy at least 31 days before any changes are applied.

If you’d like to add additional dependants: The number of additional dependants you can add to your policy will depend on the plan that you’ve chosen. Please contact the parlour for assistance with adding additional dependants.
When your cover will start: Your cover will only start on the first day of the current month if we receive premiums between the 1st and the 15th of that month. If premiums are paid after the 15th of that month, then the cover will start on the 1st of the following month. You won’t have cover if we don’t receive your first premium. Any waiting period that applies to your policy will start running from the day we actually receive the first premium. If your policy has lapsed due to non-payment, the waiting period will start running from the first premium after the reinstatement of your policy.
BrightRock reserves the right to decline your application within 31 days of you applying for cover. If we have accepted your application for the policy and you change your mind about this policy, you have 31 days from the start date of your policy to cancel it. If you cancel your policy within this period, BrightRock will refund your premium. Contact Seetsa Finance (Pty Ltd at primrosemakoloi@yahoo.com or call 082 782 6866 for details on how you can cancel your policy.
The master policy provides additional information on your policy and is available at the office of your appointed intermediary or can be requested from BrightRock.
