A consumer who signed for more than three years may cancel at the end of the third year and each later year with one month's notice (section 8(3) VersVG).
Give your policy number, your name and the date, and ask for confirmation of receipt.

Complaints about Niederösterreichische Versicherung AG
The complaints office does not list Niederösterreichische Versicherung AG separately in its 2025 report: companies with less than one per cent of complaints are grouped as "other".
Where to complain
Write to the insurer first. If that does not help, the insurance complaints office at the Ministry of Social Affairs accepts complaints about insurers; the FMA checks whether a company keeps to supervisory rules but does not decide individual cases. If the insurer rejects a claim in writing, a one year deadline to go to court can start (section 12(3) VersVG).
