Oakhurst Insurance company gives you a Raw Deal

<p>I was involved in a car accident that was not my fault.I had a displaced retina and my childs leg was broken.Oakhurst dragged their feet with paying out and to add insult to injury took off in excess of R5000 for towing ...I was never given a sticker or anything for in case of emergency who to call as a back up...They are not to be trusted and I will never ever refer them to any poor suspecting person!</p>

Dear Oakhurst, As you will see by my correspondence to your company I was in no way able to contact your office as I had a displaced retina...and I have repeatedly asked for your company to furnish me with the proof of said sms's AS I CAN ASSURE YOU AND I HAVE ALL THE RECORDS TO PROVE IT THAT SAID SMS WAS NEVER EVER SENT!!! You sent me an email saying you were investigating my complaint well I have sent you several asking how far it is to NO AVAIL???? ALL I CAN TELL FUTURE CLIENTS IS THAT THEY SHOULD DO THEIR HOMEWORK BEFORE JOINING OAKHURST INSURANCE
