Pineapple offers comprehensive insurance policies, but even that coverage has limits. Some things just aren’t covered, like:

  • Fraud, dishonesty, or misrepresentation.

  • Deliberate damage.

  • Loss/damage from war, riots, strikes, or terrorism (unless you have SASRIA).

  • Nuclear risks, confiscation by authorities.

  • Consequential loss (indirect damages).

  • Theft via scams.

  • Unauthorised repairs.

  • Contractual liability.

  • Fines, penalties, pollution.

  • Data/software loss or cyber attacks.

  • Illegal activities.

  • Gross negligence, wear and tear, and breakdowns from poor maintenance.

  • Damage from pests (termites don’t take policies).

  • Keys left in unsafe areas.

  • Damage from domestic disputes.

  • Undeclared business use.
