You need to know what you are paying for when you get a bill from your insurer. If your insurer is charging you a levy, they must show it separately on the bill. They must not mix it with the premium or other costs. You do not have to pay any extra fees for the levy. This means no one can charge you brokerage, agency, or commission fees for the levy. Your insurer must follow the rules set out in section 89 when charging you the levy.
