Poor customer service, actually disgusting customer service by both outsurance and SMD

So last year I had an accident, car was written off. The claim was submitted to outsurance, the bank was paid off . During the year I tried to renew my car disc on a different vehicle only to find out the car that was written off still showing under my name even though I was told by outsurance that everything was sorted out . This happened last year, this year again the same thing is happening, I have sent numerous of emails to outsurance ***, ***, *** and to the claims department. I was told that SMD is handling this matter but till this very day I am still struggling to renew my disc and I'm also told that interest will charged due to the late payment not sure who will be settling this bill . I Have been running after outsurance and smd to sort this out but no one seems to know what's going on. *** has been giving me excuses after excuses. How does it take 2years to resolve such a matter? Are you guys that ***********?

Hello Efilwe

You have our sincere apologies for the entire service experience and thank you for bringing the matter to our attention.

Itumeleng from SMD contacted you and confirmed the license was renewed and also apologised for the delay. Itumeleng further informed you the bank still needs to send the duplicate document in order to finalise the matter on their side.

Regards
OUTsurance

Reviewer Update
I have been the one literally running after Itumeleng and OUTsurance, I do the following up if I don't do that no one bothers to give me feedback despite the fact that it's been more than a year since this issue started. How long does it take to finalize, how many more years should I wait ? This issue started last year not even this year, I have to literally drag information out of Itumeleng. What kind of customer service is that ?

Hello Efiiwe
Our claims managers, Marisa as well as Danie tried to contact you to discuss the matter.

Marisa has since sent you an email with the update of outstanding documents and proof attached that the license disk on the written off vehicle was paid this. This should allow you to renew the license disk on the vehicle currently in use.
We agree, the very long time this matter has remained unfinalised is unacceptable, which we again apologise for.

We will appreciate the opportunity to discuss the delay with you.

Regards
OUTsurance
