Discovery Insurance the worst insurance company you can insure with

I was involved in an accident in July, yes July the 27th whi my claim was approved by Discovery. It took renew-it Sandton from the whole August and September for them to fix my car only after I had made hello Peter complaint. On the 28th of September. Immidiately I alert them to the right hand side of the vehicle that was not fix, my aircon no longer working, back whiper was removed. They advise me to lodge with Discovery because the assessors had not authorized those repays. I lodged a complain same day. Behold from that day I received every excuse you can think of for why the repairs where not authorized. After a month of numerous calls I send an email informing them I am going to the ombudsman man on the 1st Nov I got a call from Renew it stating I must bring the car in for repairs, you would think the least after all that I have been through the would have prepared a courtesy car while they finally decide to repair my car. But the did not and because I requested courtesy car I have not heard from them since I guess it another month I have to wait while the decide if I deserve some decent service. How the hell do you keep my car for 2 months not fix a ll the damage take another month to decide to fix the damage you should have in the first place.!!! Now after requesting for a courtesy car you I am again given the silent treatment joining Discovery was the worst decision I have ever made. I AM CANCEL MY CAR AND LIFE INSURANCE WITH THEM AND I DEFINITELY MEETING THEM AT THE OMBUDSMAN. THANK YOU FOR TAKING MY MONEY FOR NOTHING

It's been a total of 10 days since I wrote my complaint. Yes I did get contacted by Natalie and Thani who promised to rectify the problem. Thami promise me feedback by on the 8th of November which never came today its 16th and still no one has bothered to sought out my complaint. It's has literally been 17 weeks since I claimed a whole 4 months and I am still driving around with vehicle that is incomplete and the whole 4 month the have been happily taking my money. It end here this is not the end of my complaint I will see you at the ombudsman thank you for *****ing my money

How can you authorize 2 third party claims for the same accident one car Is damaged on the right (Jimmy) and the other is damaged on the left (Polo)? How did the Polo get damaged if my car did not get damaged on the front right? That must be a miracle I damaged the left side of the Polo from the rear all the way to the passenger door and my car? Please investigate let me know when you done I will wait I have been waiting for months already
