I believe in their service but they let me down
On the 5th November 2017 I had a mechanical problem with a car as it did not want to go to gear 1. I called Budget insurance to assist in towing the car and we agreed with the consultant that it will be towed to the nearest dealer which was The Glen mall. The car had a small dent in the front, I don’t know who decided to take the car Renew It penal beaters. When it was realized that the car was sent to Renew It by mistake no one wanted to take responsibility in terms of releasing a car to the dealer. 13 November 2017 the car was finally released from Renew It. 15 November 2017 I called the dealer to check on the progress of the car and I was informed that the front bumper is messed up, it has straches. I called to inform Budget insurance of the situation, I was advised to write an email and direct it to ********** for investigation. The investigation was done and it shows that the damages were done by Renew it on the car and was advised to contact my insurance Budget. Since Monday the 27 November 2017 I have been sent from pillar to post no one is directin me to the correct Department for assistance. I want my car to fixed that is what I am asking. I am highly disappointed with Budget insurance as I trusted the insurance to help me when I needed help. I regret signing up with this insurance. Simple task tow the car to dealer and they decided to take it where they want without reading why is the car there. I want my car to be fixed so that I can part ways with Budget because I am not an important customer to them. Going forward I will write to Insurance ombudsman reporting this matter. Bad bad service from Budget insurance.

Update:
As discussed with our Customer Relation Specialist, we sincerely apologise for what transpired. When you had the mechanical failure and the vehicle was towed to the dealership, the vehicle was supposed to be left at the dealer and not towed to one of our repairers. When the vehicle was delivered at the repairer, they have stripped the bumper to establish the damages, which was also not necessary as you did not lodge a claim for the dent in the bumper.
As agreed, we are giving the matter urgent attention, further feedback will be provided to you shortly.
