Extremely Disappointed with OUTsurance's Claims Handling
This doesn't even desirve a 1 star rating. I would have liked to put a - star rating.
I’ve been a loyal OUTsurance client since purchasing my first car, but after my recent experience, I’m seriously reconsidering my relationship with them.
I submitted a claim for pothole damage to all four of my car's rims, which occurred over time. One rim and tire are severely damaged and need to be replaced. OUTsurance, however, has chosen to only cover one rim and tire, stating that I must submit a separate claim for each rim — which makes no sense given that the damage is part of the same ongoing issue. Instead of assisting me fairly, they pushed me through to the cancellations department, showing they’d rather lose a long-term customer than resolve a legitimate complaint.
This isn't the first time I've been disappointed. In a previous claim, OUTsurance instructed the panel beaters to super glue a broken headlight bracket instead of replacing it. Only after a drawn-out battle did they finally agree to replace the headlights properly.
It’s frustrating and disheartening to receive this kind of service after years of loyalty. I expected better from OUTsurance.
Thank you for responding to my original post — but unfortunately, the poor service continues.
Since your reply, I’ve made several phone calls to follow up. Every time I call, I’m told the manager is either "not available" or "not at their desk," and I’m repeatedly promised a call back within 30 minutes. It’s now been over 4 hours, and I’m still waiting.
This level of service is completely unacceptable, especially after being a loyal customer for years. It feels like I’m being passed around with no intention of actually resolving the issue.
Please escalate this matter urgently and have someone competent contact me with real answers — not more empty promises.

Thank you for your further feedback.
We can confirm that the claim was finalised yesterday. Our claims manager, Ntlhari, contacted you to discuss the claim in detail. As per our Ts and Cs, an excess will be applicable per incident. A decision was made to settle your claim on the amount you specified less one excess. Payment has been processed.
Thank you for accepting our apologies.
