Untrained staff and assesors

<p>25/09/2016 I claim because a massive storm damaged my building. A lazy assesor comes has a quick look and says SUBSIDENCE. No proof, no factual data, it was just a word that popped inti his mind and my claim was repudiated. I asked for proof of subsidence but none has been provided, I askd on what basis subsidence is claimed, none was provided. The fact that 2 days befre the damage there was a massive storm was not taken into account, the fat that a airpocket due to wind could have formed inside the ceiling causing damage was not considered, climbing into the ceiling to porperly inspect the damage, not done.</p> <p>4/12/2016 - My toilet breaks as something was dropped on it, lodge a complaint and I get told my excess is R 2300, have a fight about that, do not claim anymore and under the impression my excess is reduced to R 1000 for future claims.</p> <p>27/12/2016 - Arrive home after a few days away, at the time a few severe storms happened were I live. When I got back my gate nmotor did not work and a tree had fallen over. had the gatemotor repaired and as they were already there had the tree removed, total R 4800. Phone Outsurance, low and behold, excess R 2300, another fight, this time it gets reduced on the 29th and I was promised a call back by a claims consultant.</p> <p>3/01/2017 - After attemting to register the claim on tha app twice, again being promised a call back, after registring a cliam on the website and being promised a call back I call and am told that I have to pay a R 2380 excess???????. It takes a week of no response to lodge a claimand more then a month to have excess reduced but then still have to pay the higher excess.</p> <p>Outsurance, i work with insurance companies as a building accesor every day and you are BAD, your service is BAD, staff attitude when you want to complain is BAD, requests are not proccesed BAD</p>

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. Sorry for the inconvenience. Cardo our claims manager has been in contact with you to get the matter resolved. The refund has been processed and we will only take the R1000 and refund the rest. Cardo discussed this with you and you were happy with this.
