Wrong Claim sent by 1st for women to panel beater and wrong car part fixed

WORST INSURANCE COMPANY.

I claimed and took my vehicle to the panel beater and they decided to send the panel beater the wrong claim.

This was after I had specified the claim I was going to take my car for however they decided to send the claim with the biggest excess amount that I paid cash for. Thenjiwe Zwane and Nomhle Lelia were in contact via email and still sent the wrong claim to the panel beater.

What is the point of calling and sending emails when you''ll still send wrong information to panel beaters.

2 days later and no one contacted me.

I ended up contacting VALUE ADDED PRODUCTS DEPARTMENT myself. My case was handled by Ziyanda and she left it hanging after the panel beater tried to be in contact with them. She said she spoke to Thenjiwe Zwane who was the one who sent the quote to the panel beater.

My issue is still not solved. 1st for women VALUE ADDDED PRODUCTS DEPARTMENT instead of solving my issue ended up dropping my calls.

VAP then went on to telling the panel beater that they will write a review on HELLOPETER whereas they are the ones who sent the wrong quotation to the panel beater. I am sitting with a car that the wrong part was fixed.
