Miway treats clients like *********

I had a claim for a power surge on my TV. I had explained to the consultant that the service provider I initially submitted my TV for assessment to (on a personal basis) indicated there was a power surge and then changed his story once I wanted to submit a report to insurance as I would no longer require him to fix the TV. I was treated as if I had something to hide. I was investigated, had a drive around my home whilst I was in work as well as had the TV at the service provider's premises already inspected even though I had made arrangements with the consultant to have the service provider inspect the TV the next day at my home when I had picked it up. I was interviewed at my place of work with a tape recorder and was told that indeed under 'special circumstances' this was the process. Further to this I was called again to reiterate the conversation the consultant had with my initial service provider and how he mentioned that under no circumstances there was a power surge. I indicated I would await feedback from MIWAY assessors. I also made it known that irrespective of the outcome of reassessment I would not continue using MIWAY as my service provider. I question what my special circumstances were. All this for a total claim of R3850, excess of which I will be paying R1500. Yes the claim was approved as I insisted that your service provider inspect the TV and give a second opinion. Once all is sorted out, I will not continue doing business with you. The manner in which clients are treated is appalling.

Reviewer Update
The TV broke 2 weeks after it was repaired with the same problem it went in for. You guys had the same company pick the TV up and repair again only to give me a 3 month guarantee! I have requested from Miway, Roxy as well as the service provider proof that the board in the TV was replaced with a new board with serial number and details of the approved LG repair company so that I have this in my possession. I have yet to receive this! I reiterated the fact that I was not happy paying a premium diligently to receive this service as a 3 month guarantee especially after breaking again so soon was not good enough. Also mentioned my disgust in the fact that after a repairs which costed you only about R3800 you immediately increased my premium. I mentioned my dissatisfaction with Miway taking the cheapest route to solve my TV problem when I was adequately insured .
