Putrit service unreliable insurance

I had a flat tyre, Saturday , I am covered with Budget insurance _ Comprehensive cover which entails break down assist. This happened along the R44 Stellenbosch. My son and daughter was accompanying me. I contact my insurance reassuring them to not panic as we felt quite unsafe. I contact budge only to be told that I do not have road assist and I need to pay cash upfront for assistance to be towed. They told me they couldn't access my policy to confirm that I did have this benefit , however upon joining and reason for joining insurance is to have tow and emergency assist benefit. I spent 30 minutes on the line lodging my complaint I then was transferred to someone who told me they will provide a email address for my complaint, in other words this is just another complaint, irrelevant. We may be out of danger now but , things could have been worse. There is no reassurance from Budget insurance, its all about the money, and its in the past so why bother to take me and my complaint seriously.

Yes like I was told Saturday you will escalate and come back , nobody came back to me we were left in the middle of know where in danger, you called back 1 hour later to tell me you made a mistake and I am covered. I was too traumatized to take the call request a call back in 30 minutes nobody called me back .You failed to deliver / render a service, a crucial service emergency assist , it was the past and nobody cared to follow up. Juts like my complaint via telephone was not of any importance because its in the past not your problem
