NET LIEG EN BEDRIEG

On, or about, 20th March 2024 we had a Leak in our Bedroom Ceiling. It was leaking onto 2 x Build-in Bedroom Cupboards causing extensive damage to the ceiling as well. The following morning, I lodge a Written Complaint to Messrs. King Price Insurance via their Official Website. Sadly, they chose to treat my complaint with contempt which, in my opinion, is rude – something I cannot and will not tolerate. On Monday 29th March 2024, and ONLY AFTER I CONTACTED THEIR OFFICES TELEPHONICALLY, did they send me a Claim Number which have proved to be NOTHING MORE than ‘a flush in the pan’. The rest of that day gave rise to several telephonic messages from numerous persons all promising to resolve my complaint. The VERY FIRST THING each one reminded me of, however, was ‘that I would be liable for R1,500-00 Access. I agreed PROVIDED THEY REPAIRED THE SAID DAMAGE. To even date the damage has not been attended to adequately or at all. Yesterday (Tuesday) and today (Wednesday) I received NO COMMUNICATION from King Price Insurance. If, however, I do not receive any WRITTEN UNDERTAKING from them by 10h00 tomorrow (Thursday) - that the said Damage would be repaired to my entire satisfaction, I would be left no alternative but to approach the Consumer Council for relief and post my ‘King Price experience’ to the Media. By-the-way, is THIS how they treat ALL their customers and how they deal with complaints? DAVE SASSMAN

'Discuss' WHAT????
It was S I X T E E N D A Y S ago that I lodged our claim and you still want to 'discuss'? Haven't you heard '..it is far better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt'?
PLEASE, just come and replace the ceiling and the cupboards!!! The last time you had to do the SAME JOB you just 'patched up the same ceiling'. A few months later it fell down on us. Did you see the proof of this allegation when you went to the site???

THANK YOU. They contacted me about 15 minutes ago.
NO REPAIRS have been done to our property yet. The 'discission' is still 'pending'.

I just had a call from your Sub-Contractor assigned to attend to the repairs on our property. They insist that they will come and do the work tomorrow. I told them that tomorrow in The Lord's Day (God's Holy Sabbath) and the Bible is VERY CLEAR, " Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.9Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy ****servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it". We will NOT ALLOW anybody to trample on God's Holy Day on any of our properties. If your company is in the habit of FORCING your staff to desecrate God's Holy Day we will not be party to it.
Unless the work is carried out on Monday we will be left with no alternative but to approach the Ombudsman of the Consumer Councilor relief.
