King Price - King of Frustration

I am re-posting this review with a revised rating:

Original review: Claim was approved quickly, Major problems getting approval from King Price to repair the car at the Mercedes authorised repairer

Claim was approved quickly, Major problems getting approval from King Price to repair the car at the Mercedes authorised repairer. 7 phone calls so far and lots of broken promises. Today, Samukelisiwe Nkosi was extremely helpful and kepy her commitment to call back, hopefully this is now resolved

Another day, no progress. Nearly three weeks after the incident the repair has not even started.

King Price was supposed to change the repairer to DALS since the are the only authorized Mercedes repair center. Dals knows nothing about the repair. The original assessor (automagic) knows nothing.

I have never had such a miserable claim experience in my life

Close of business today if there is no progress I am taking this to the NFO

I will update this review as the claim does or does not progress

Reviewer Update
I can't update the star rating, but within a few hours of writing this review, an assessor called and sorted the problem out.

It would be great if agents at King Price were better able to escalate when things get obviously out of hand beyond sending an email (which appears to have little effect).

Anyway, King Price has righted the wrong, thank you guys
