Absa Shortfall Insurance is TERRIBLE

I signed up with Absa Shortfall Insurance on 29/10/2020 and had an accident on 14/11/2020 where my vehicle was written-off. My vehicle Insurer paid their portion and there was a shortfall whereby Absa Insurance needs to settle. I am being told that I need to pay my first premium before they can process a claim, and I offered to do that but Absa says that I must first wait for my first vehicle installment to go off and the premium will be allocated from there. Its totally frustrating as this was never explained and now I am not getting straight answers at all and I am now stuck without a vehicle and I'm being told THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE, ITS PROCEDURE!!!!

Reviewer Update
This is utterly DISGUSTING SERVICE from Absa and Daphne, they don't bother to reply or resolve my issue, this is the worst Insurance, especially from such a big bank, to even think I have been banking with them you years.
