Claim no. ***- Forgotten 3rd party claim

I was involved in a mini car accident with a woman who is covered by Discovery insurance. The accident took place some time in late March or early April I can’t recall. We exchanged details and dealt with our own insurances until I was told that my claim is a third party claim and Radichaba Machaba will be handling my case and all communication will be handled by him. I was asked to submit all the necessary documents and even took the car to their registered dealer for assessments . All these were submitted in April and I was informed that the case will be finalized in 30 days time. (TAT). 30 days came and went with no communication from Radichaba. I tried calling and sending mails since with no response whatsoever from him while I drive around with a bumped car. If this is how discovery handles their claims I’m glad I did not take up their insurance cover that they offered me. I’m frankly disgusted by the manner in which this is being handled!

Discovery has since been in contact with me and have agreed that this claim should have been resolved a long time ago. To cut the story short , traction has been made and the last time I checked last week my claim was sent to finance for processing . Still awaiting the payment . Thanks for getting back to me and ensuring that the claim gets attention .
