Silence is not golden

My cellphone fell and i took it to Edgars Westgate on 06 February in order for my insurance that i pay cash every month to pay out. To date i never received any feedback. Last week i called the contact centre and was advised that they did not receive my claim form, however they do have my phone. I then e-mailed the copy that was given to me by the store representative. I then called back on Thursday to enquire if they received my form and was advised that i should receive an SMS by latest Monday. Today i called the contact centre again as i never received an SMS and Khangwelo Tshikukuvhe who advised that the claim has been approved, however i will receive an SMS today or tomorrow. I then asked to speak to a superior as i have no faith in this SMS system, i was placed on hold and advised that the supervisor Thamsanqa Khubeka is busy with another client and wont be able to come and assist me. I then asked to speak to a manager where i was told that the manager Kenaope Mpofu is not in the office. I asked how many team leaders are working in the contact centre and Khangwelo advised 6, however 2 of them are on the line with other customers and the other 4 are walking the floor. Khangwelo then removed her headsets and said "iyo" when i said if i dont speak to a superior i will go to social media. I was placed on hold back and fro for the last 20 minutes with no superior to speak to. I am without a phone since 06 February and if i dont do a follow up, nobody contacts me. I would really appreciate some form of communication as to when will my phone be fixed.

Please note that i received a call today from Edcon and needless to say my phone only rang once and the call was hung up. Now Edcon will say that they tried to contact me with no answer. What is the story with my phone, are you going to repair it or should I collect my phone and consider my money that I pay for insurance a write off?
