STAY AWAY !!!!!!!!

Very quick to take their monthly premiums, but please do not dare to put in any claims. Had a mechanical failure with my vehicle, on a Sunday. Finally managed to get the mechanic to come out and fetch the vehicle. Immediately paid R1000 over towards the towing costs. When I received the invoice from the mechanic, it was only R950 for the tow. Insurance rejects the claim, because I am not claiming R1000, but only R950. I will now cancel my insurance with you, as well as other policies I have with Lombards.

This back and forth correspondence with the brokers/Lombard insurance, is not getting anyone, anywhere. The point is, you have still not paid for the towing costs, which, by the way, is in the policy I pay for EVERY MONTH. You leave me with no other choice, but the test the market and get quotations for other insurance firms. Again, you are quick to take your premiums, but please do not dare to put in any claims !

There is nothing to investigate further. I have sent you all the information and explanations. Its a case of you stretching this out, hoping that I will forget about it. How long do you want to "investigate" this? You have everything. Sorry, you have lost my business. I am in the process of getting quotations. As soon as I find another insurer, I will let you know
