Watch the small print

Dont be fooled by Discovery. They hide things in their policy and don't disclose things. They don't tell you, you can't have more than 2 water related claims in a year and they also have a R50000 limit on water claims. I had a geyser replaced then got 3 water leaks in a month. Only one was paid due to their limit of 2 water related claims, so I was under the claims limit but can't claim. Thinking twice about this as where else have they hidden limitations in their Policy

Good day John, 

We're really sorry to hear about your experience with Discovery. It sounds incredibly frustrating to deal with unexpected policy limitations, especially when you need support the most.

We have made the relevant management team aware of your distress regarding the claim.

Hi. Things have got even worse. The Accessor now says I only have 2 water related claims per year (again hidden somewhere). My issue with him is his interpretation is 2 claims in total while I have cover on two properties. In my mind its 2 per property. There is no way this is correct so if he is wrong, he needs to be retained.
