Hollard insurance - STAY AWAY!!!

Stay away from this insurance! I joined hollard on the 14th Nov 2023. Last week Friday driving on the highway the bakkie in front of me lost its load and damaged my car. I submitted all the documentation - only today to find out they โ€˜โ€™hollardโ€ changed my policy without notifying me. What a joke!! My access doubled - but guess what! My premiums stayed the same! And you pay double your access if you if you have a claim with in 180 days!! Wow it's amazing to have this kind of comfort from a insurance company and worry about a claim. And thebest of all.. to speak to someone you have deal with Cartrack and then Broker Buddy and then finally Hollard! I phoned broker buddy and they just said they cannot help! People stay away, if you love admin! Go Hollard!! Now I sit with a damaged car - not even my fault and plus I have the comfort knowing I'm covered with "best useless" insurance ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

All I can say is, hollard is the worst ever and for the 1st time in 19 years that I have this issue with an insurance company. This explains why Hollard have a 1 star rating.

I received a response now from my broker that even if hollard sent an email and you as the client is not aware of it - they can make any changes they want! What is just amazing, you change my policy but happy to ***** the extra money you take from my premiums with an higher excess. Shame on you Hollard! I will never recommend Hollard to anyone! Please go learn from leading insurance companies.

Look at my policy ***

So in Nov my access was R4000 and last week I had a bakkie lost it's load and a table hit the side of my car. I was very upset about, first time something this happened to my car in 5 years. I though it is okay, I have insurance. I stopped the bakkie and exchanged details. Only to find out they don't have ins - so here we go.. All is on me. I got all the ducuments ready and went to the police station. Got quotes on the same day because I HATE leaving something damaged. I submitted all the docs and quotes - one qoute was 28k and 2nd 18k. I even submitted the cheaper qoute.

With big surprise I was informed through broker buddy my policy changed in April - I didn't know. Here comes the catch.. My access is R7500. Because 3rd party doesn't have insurance - another R7500.. Wait there is more.. Because the claim is submitted in the 180 days ( you cannot claim in 180 days- this is news to me) another R7500.. But wait there is more!!!!!!!! 10% of the damage is added R1500. The damage to my car was only R15000. My access is a nice R24000!! This is absolutely discusting - I hope the rest of the Hollard clients will see this and check their policies - Because Hollard will change and nobody informed me about anything!!! Oh and the catch is.. Hollard won't phone you.. It will be car track! This is rediculous - no I'm.getting penalized for the damage to my car and the 3rd party guy is lucky!! I'm the one paying my premiums on time and think you doing the right thing - but get treated like this! I cannot see any bennifts in having this insurance with Hallord! Having Hollard as your insurrurer only comes with disappointment!! Good luck to all the clients out there!!!
