Discovery Insurance - THUMBS DOWN 👎🏻

Disappointing and bad service by Discovery Insure.. after years of belonging to Discovery Insurance and going back to them recently, I made a claim for a back window of my Toyota Hilux’s Bakkie canopy only to be informed that this is classified as an accessory. I bought the vehicle with the canopy and was never informed that it had to insured separately. But that also reflects the typical misinformation or omission to inform that seems part of the protocol to get clients and present cheaper quotes for insurance yet not disclosing such essential and material information.

The response from the Claims team is factually incorrect. They stated that the canopy is not covered and that I could not claim for the canopy window and to state that I opted Not to continue with the claim is a misrepresentation. I was not given the option to continue with the claim. The canopy was purchased with the vehicle and can definitely not be regarded as an accessory.. then everything attached to the vehicle could be an accessory.. this is still pathetic and misleading service.
