The worst Insurance Company to deal with!!

I can not actually believe the level of service I have received from Oakhurst! Submitted my claim 3 weeks ago and still no outcome! They tried to charge me double excess when the accident was not my fault. Had to send them a screenshot of my policy to tell them the additional R3000 excess does not apply because I was rear-ended -why I had to be the one to tell them that I still a mystery. The assessor was based in JHB doing a REMOTE assessment (I am in Durban) Only when I complained did they send an assessor out to view my vehicle. The lady dealing with my claim went on maternity leave, which resulted in delayed feedback. Took 24 hours + to return my calls or respond to my emails.

What an absolute nightmare. I do not recommend Oakhurst to ANYONE!!
