Selective and biased investigation process lacking meaningful feedback and proper engagement with complaint.
M1672/17T
My matter has been with the OSTI since June 2017. It been over a year. In June 2018 i was told that the matter was closed and that the decision is in favor of the insurance company.After querying issues, that were part of my initial complaint, that were not addressed - the matter has since been re-opened???? How is this possible?
The OSTI "investigates" a matter for over a year, and reaches conclusion based on inaccurate/ limited information, whilst providing the insurance company every opportunity under the sun, to concoct some sort of baseless defense, and in some instances, the assistant Ombud, John Theunissen, investigating the matter completely ignores issues of proven ********* conduct by the insurer - " insurance company and the car valuation company are owned/managed by the same person/people - Ombuds response to this - NOTHING, IGNORE! That same car value provided by the insurance owned valuation company, is cR100k lessor in value than the Auto Dealers Guide ( An industry standard) - Ombuds response - car valuations is not an exact science and any source may be utilized by parties to an insurance contract" - SPEECHLESS - what non sense.
Vehicle extras - the insurance company does NOT address this and the assistant ombud also ignores this completely - when factual evidence is provided of the extra's - Ombud disappears, and stops responding to e-mails.
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE FROM THE OSTI OFFICE PROVIDE ME WITH A DETAILED STATUS UPDATE ON THE MATTER.
