Do I need to submit a claim, or does the service centre handle it?
Just log into your Hoot portal, book a service at one of our Hoot-approved service centres, and when you arrive, let them know “I’m with Hoot”, then provide your details and Hoot Plan number. That’s it! Hoot and the service centre will take care of the rest, including the bill.
What additional benefits do I get with my Wear & Tear Plan?
Your Wear & Tear Plan includes a Minor Electrical Capped Benefit, which covers key electrical components up to R1 000 per claim incident. The number of claims you can make depends on the duration of your plan.
Covered components include:
✔ Wiring repairs
✔ Globes
✔ Fuses
✔ Remote batteries and key re-coding
✔ Diagnostics
For a 24-month plan, you can claim up to five times, while a 36-month plan allows seven claims, each up to R1 000.
This benefit ensures your car’s minor electrical fixes are taken care of when you need them.
How long does my plan last?
Your Wear & Tear Plan runs for a set period or until a specific mileage limit is reached—whichever happens first. The available options are:
✔ 24 months or 45 000 km
✔ 36 months or 60 000 km
Can I cancel my plan?
Your Hoot Plan runs on a monthly debit order, ensuring your service costs are covered when the time comes. If a payment isn’t made on time, there’s a 15-day grace period to catch up. If no payment is received after that, your cover will not be in force, and your plan will be cancelled.
If you need to update your banking details, you can do it yourself through the Hoot self-service platform, just be sure to do so at least 10 days before your next payment.

Is there a waiting period?
