Discovery insure is *********** an NOT client-centric don’t use it

They are not client centric. Claimed for hailstorm damage that I am rightfully covered and they have written my vehicle i20 2019 motion because according to them, my car has passed their threshold according to the assessment they did the cost to fix the car is 53% of economical value however they are assuming the cost might go up to 65%. They continue to try and full me by saying I can buy my vehicle back from the for 85k. They do not want me to cancel my claim or reduce my claim, instead they are saying they will sell my car back to me then will down grade my claim to only fire and theft. They do not do follow up thy call or email you on average 4 days later. My car has been taken away from me for 5 weeks! Therefore my next instalment payment I will be paying for a car that I am not using and is kept away from me.

Good day,
I have been on the call with the Specialist for more then an hour with the progress. The specialists don’t even know the threshold value for a write off. The publicly available information from discovery is saying 70% of economical value, and the estimated cost to fix the car is 52% economical value.
Kindly note that your responding on my review is of no assistance.
I would like the matter to be escalated immediately to Management who are well experienced please

It is insane that my claim took almost TWO months to process my claim, after processing this claim Discovery insure has the audacity to tell me they will cancel my plan and should I consider insuring with them (which I won't) my premium will go up and only be covered for fire and theft. Mind you they said they will CONSIDER. the manner in which the specialists addressed me was appalling, to quote, verbatim I was told "we are in a business of making money". The last time Discovery insure sent communication was 6 December 2023 which resulted in me having to contact them almost on a daily. I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE TO BE COVERED BY DISCOVERY INSURE. I REGRET IT.
