MTN Insurance and General Turn Around Time Inadequate

<p>I sent an insurance claim in 29/09. Since then I have sent 6 or 7 emails to insurance ********** (no reply) I have sent messages to Facebook (no reply), I have sent messages to Twitter (no reply), I have gone to the MTN shop in Hyde Park where the staff there could not get hold of anyone, I have called about 30 times to ********** only to hold and having my calls dropped. I eventually spoke to someone on Thursday who said she had escalated the claim and promised I would have a response my Friday... of course not.</p> <p>What am I paying insurance premiums for if you are not willing to even respond to emails never mind replacing my hand set, it is completely ridiculous!</p> <p>My reference number is ********** 1 and my account number is A ********** </p> <p>Please ensure someone gets back to me today</p>

Reviewer Update

This does not help my situation, WHEN can I expect substantial feedback on this claim? Who is going to get back to me? Is there someone from Guard Risk that I can call directly?

Still not one person has emailed me although on your "customer care" line you advise clients to rather email than hold for an operator, I have emailed you literally 10 times and have been blatantly ignored, I do not have time in my day to be chasing MTN to do their job. I wouldn’t have a job if this is how I treated my customers.

It says in your declaration in the claim form “The claim will take 24 to 48 hours after all information is supp**** and received by MTN Insurance administrators” this is clearly untrue.

Please advise when I will get feedback. I have been patient, but my patience has a limit. I do not want to have to take this further, I do know my rights as a consumer.
