iWYZE sucks

I submitted the claim on wyzeHUB on 27 June 2021 and also requested a callback. iWYZE promised to call me back within 48 hours. They did not keep their promise. I then called them on 29 June 2021. It was then discovered that my claim that I submitted online has not been attended to. Nevertheless, claim was lodged. The representative promised me that I will receive feedback every 48 hours. Few minutes later, I received a phone call from the assessor, who requested photographs of car. I handed over all the required documentation. Once again, I heard nothing from iWYZE. Two days later on 2 July 2021 , I contacted the assessor. The assessor informed me that they have handed over all information to iWYZE and are awaiting authorisation from iWYZE. I then contacted iWYZE once more. The representative apologies and said someone will contact me. Another promise that was not kept. On 7 July 2021 I contacted iWYZE yet again, and the representative informed that the person handling the claim will contact me before end of the 7th July 2021. Yet again, no one contacted me. It is rather troubling that iWYZE offers insurance products, and yet they do not want to fulfill the claims.

Reviewer Update
I received a call on the 8 July 2021 following the review I posted. My claim was approved. However, I was informed that there is an additional excess I need to pay. This is due to the fact that the value of my automobile exceeds a certain amount. This is deception on IWYZE part. I took insurance with IWYZE instead of King Price and IEMAS because they were offering me an excess of R4500. I was not well advice that by default, due to the value of my automobile my excess is actually R9500. They labelled the excess of R4500 as a basic excess. This does not make sense, because every time I claim for anything other than a windshield, I will be paying an excess of R9500. This is omission and deception on IWYZE. Needless to say, I will be looking for a new insurer.
