Cancel Farmers Insurance: Easy Method
What is Farmers Insurance
Overview
Farmers in New Zealand is a retail department store chain that sells clothing, homewares and other goods. It is not a New Zealand insurance underwriter or insurer.
In New Zealand context
If you see the word "Farmers" in relation to insurance, check the policy schedule. The insurer or broker named on the policy is the correct contact for cancellations or policy changes.
How to cancel Farmers Insurance
If you hold an insurance policy
- Check the policy schedule to confirm the insurer and contact details.
- Contact the insurer or your broker by phone or email and state you want to cancel; ask for the cancellation process and effective date.
- Request written confirmation of cancellation and any refund calculation or fees.
If you mean a Farmers.co.nz retail purchase
- For change-of-mind returns: you can request an exchange or eGift card within 14 days if the item is in original condition with proof of purchase.
- For faulty items: report the fault and seek a remedy under the Consumer Guarantees Act (repair, replacement, or refund).
- See Farmers’ returns information: Farmers returns policy.
What happens when you cancel
Coverage and effective date
The insurer or broker will confirm the cancellation effective date and any outstanding obligations. Coverage normally ends on the confirmed cancellation date.
Access to records and renewal
After cancellation you should receive written confirmation and final documentation. Keep your policy schedule, cancellation confirmation, and any claims records for at least several years.
Will I get a refund?
Retail purchases (Farmers.co.nz)
There are no cash refunds for change of mind. Farmers offers exchanges or eGift cards within 14 days for non-faulty items in original condition.
Faulty items are covered by the Consumer Guarantees Act and may be repaired, replaced, or refunded. See Farmers returns policy.
Insurance policies
Refunds for cancelled insurance depend on the insurer's terms. You may receive a pro‑rata refund less any applicable fees, or you may not be entitled to a refund if short‑period or cancellation fees apply.
Always request a written refund calculation from the insurer or broker before finalising the cancellation.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA)
Under the CGA, goods must be of acceptable quality and fit for purpose. If an item is faulty, you are entitled to a remedy such as repair, replacement or refund.
Retailers, including Farmers, must comply with CGA obligations for faulty goods.
Change-of-mind and store policies
- Change-of-mind returns are a store policy, not a statutory right; Farmers offers exchange or eGift card within 14 days for non-faulty items.
- Always keep proof of purchase and your original packaging to support a return or exchange.
Customer experiences
Overview of feedback
Online review sources show mixed feedback for Farmers New Zealand, with few substantive positive reviews on Trustpilot or ProductReview NZ.
Common complaints
- Customers often report dissatisfaction with the no-cash refund policy and receiving eGift cards instead.
- Some users report delays or poor experiences contacting customer service about returns or policy issues. See community reports: Reddit thread and Trustpilot.
Documentation checklist
What to have ready
- Policy schedule or insurer name (for insurance cancellations).
- Proof of purchase or receipt (for retail returns).
- Identification and bank details if a refund is expected.
- Photos of the item and any fault details, plus serial numbers or tags.
How to submit documents
- Send documentation to the insurer or broker by email or their online form and request a confirmation of receipt.
- For in-store retail returns, bring the item, tags, and proof of purchase to your nearest Farmers store.
Common mistakes
Mistakes when cancelling insurance
People sometimes contact the wrong organisation because a policy references "Farmers"; always check the insurer named on the policy schedule.
Another common error is not requesting written confirmation of cancellation and any refund calculation.
Mistakes with retail returns
Assuming you are entitled to a cash refund for change of mind is a frequent mistake. Farmers offers exchanges or eGift cards for non-faulty items within 14 days.
Failing to keep the receipt or original packaging can also make returns more difficult.
