For any number of reasons, there are times when our members need additional support and assistance. We’re here for you, and these are some of the ways we can help.

Our commitment is to you

We’re here to act in our members’ best financial interests and we’ve been doing exactly that for more than 90 years.

Sometimes, the support and assistance we provide goes beyond the basic products and services you might expect from your super fund. This extra support has the potential to make a big difference at a time when you might need it the most.

Speak with our team

If you’ve got any questions about your Equip Super account, the insurance you have with us, or how we can support you, our team is here to help.

Support with an insurance claim

Insurance claims can be complex, and we understand that the need to make a claim often comes at a time of great change and challenge for a member and their loved ones. Our team is here to help guide you and ensure the claims process is as easy and straightforward as possible.

Learn more about making an insurance claim, including how the process works depending on the type of claim you may need to make.

If you need early access to your super

If you’re experiencing severe financial difficulty, it may be possible to access some or all of your super early on the grounds of severe financial hardship or compassionate grounds. Obtaining early access to your super may provide you with some support at a challenging time. Just be aware that the government applies strict rules to early release payments, and you’ll need to meet certain requirements before you can access your super. 

Learn more about how to apply for early access to your super, the eligibility requirements and how the process works.

Do you need to arrange third party access or a POA?

You can enable someone to act on your behalf when it comes to your super by completing a Third Party Authority form. This allows the person you nominate to access your account, and also help you if you need to make an insurance claim.

A POA is a legal document that allows you to appoint an individual or an organisation to either manage or assist you with, your personal or financial affairs. There are a range of different options, and the rules may vary from state to state.

You can read more about POAs on the ASIC MoneySmart website.

If you’re unhappy with any product or service that we provide, or any other aspect of the Fund, you may wish to make a complaint.

We always try to resolve complaints quickly, to the satisfaction of all concerned, and in the best interests of all our members. If you need to make a complaint, you can call us directly, write to us, email us, or reach us via our website.

Supporting you with education and advice

Of course, if you’ve got any day-to-day questions about your super or retirement, we’re here to help with that, too. Here’s just a snapshot of some of the information and services we provide to help you build your confidence and understanding when it comes to super and retirement, so you can plan ahead with confidence.
