ABSA idirect worst insurance ever when you need to make a claim.

I have the wort service ever from ABSAidirect. I did a chip repair on the windscreen and they registered it as claim for replacement. For the past 3 months I have been phoning them daily. You hold for over 20 minutes before answer, once they answer, they go and check with their claims department you will hold for over 20 minutes again until you give up and they dont have any decency to come back to you. If you lucky they tell you the issue is resolved when you check again for no claim bonus, you are being told of the same issue and they tell you they resolving it again, you must call after 4 weeks, you call again after 4 weeks you hold for over 30 minutes with answer, when they eventually answer you are told that your issue is not resolved. This is the worst service I ever heard in my life and they dont care. You lodge a complaint they don't respond on your email you only get acknowledgement of receipt.

After review on the 6th of November I received a call from a very polite lady, who gave me a reference number and promised that my issue will be resolved in 10 days. A month later still the issue is not resolved and ABSA went back to their Shenanigans of not answering my calls. Its really so frustrating that it can take almost 4 months to resolve such a minor issue worst part they were the one who made the error.

Thank you to the guy who phoned me this morning and transferred me to another consultant. Unfortunately again that consultant made me wait for 37 min than they dropped the call, I'm still not assisted and they did not an audacity to come back to me. This is really exhausting and no willingness to resolve this 4 month long issue.

REF No. C***9
