DON'T USE LOOM

Do not insure with Loom no matter how easy it may seem. When it comes to claiming they do not replace your item they give you a voucher to use at a store called Excellular which does not stock your insured item. you need to pay in double your phones worth.

Hi Ryan
I'm sorry to hear this. Unfortunately your device was underinsured. As per our T&C's underinsured devices will receive vouchers as cash is not offered as a settlement option. If you would like for us to source an alternative device for you we are more than happy to do so.

As per your email below, my claim was approved with no mention of being under insured. Your supplier was not able to source my phone and you provided me with a voucher for the Excellular. i also have the email from Excellular stating that they do not have stock of my phone which was sent to Loom yet you still issued a voucher knowing that the store where i have to redeem the voucher doesn't have stock.
Good afternoon Ryan

Your claim has been approved. i am just following up with our suppliers on stock of your device, I will be in touch with you soon.

Kind regards,
Ronit

Hi Ryan 

Thanks for your reply. Your device (Huawei p20 lite dual sim) is insured for R4500 and the replacement quote from Excellular is R5999. Would you like to pay in the additional R1499? We have sent you an email - chat soon.

2 things
1) you only issue vouchers for Excellular, which charges R5999 for a Huawei p20 lite dual sim) however its only valued at R4500 at Take a lot , Game stores and at vodacom directly.
2) I have canceled my policy's with Loom already, cut my losses and sourced a Phone with Excellular and paid in the additional cost just to be rid of both of you

Hi Ryan 

I'm sorry to hear this. The R4500 seen on Takealot is for a single sim device, your insured device is a dual sim resulting in the extra R1499. Please let us know if we can assist with anything else.
