No giving good service.

My name is Archie, I was involved in an accident . The driver of the other car drove in one way facing oncoming traffic and he hit me at intersection on the front driver side. I did a claim with my insurance PMD, I sent them pictures and everything regarding incident. The driver of other car accepted he made a mistake and we did statement at police station. PMD instead of sending their investigators requested that I go back to the scene and send them pictures to give them a view of place , so that they can assist me quickly. I did that . I kept doing follow up with them , eventually my claim was authorized. They sent it to a panelbeater of their choice that they recommended without asking if I recommend any close to me. The panelbeater Nuwagon I did call them to ask about status of car they told me car is close to a write off and they still communicating with my insurance, the insurance did not bother to inform me as to what is happening unless I call them , now I had to call nuwagon and insurance doing follow ups. The insurance told me they awaiting feedback from insurance to hear what they say. The next day I call panelbeater they informed me that the car is a write off and the insurance decided to take it to another panel beater without informing me. Have I not called I was not going to know what they were busy doing. They recommended a panelbeater, now the same panelbeater write a car off and they decide to take it somewhere. The operators at PMD when you call them they busy only trying to convince and protect the way they dealing with us. Insurance companies should abide by their policies and give us good service. The car remains to be my car , they are just the insurer . They are not giving service that is worth what they say.

I just think you know how to play with words, you want to tell me the reason you taking car from Nuwagon is because you taking it to better repairer, whereas I know very well that is because you dont want to pay. You want to stick to the 63k that you want to fix car with even if they say otherwise. The driver of other car did not dispute to his mistake or wrong doing we made statements at police station, you went on to ask him if I was drunk and if I did not ask him money to fix car. He has an insurance that you should deal with. Nuwagon from the word go said car is close to a write off, your operators said should Nuwagon say car is write off you will do that, now you take car to another repairer, when I questioned about you taking my car to a repairer of your own you told them that it is because they do the best job , they certified and all those, now the same best and certified repairer says pay then you take car to another place ?? ?? What makes it difficult for you to write off the car?? What makes you not to pay the amount they asking for? The operators told me should Nuwagon say otherwise that will be it. You never even called to say we taking car from Nuwagon to somewhere I only happen to get that information from Nuwagon. Please do the right thing and write off the car, should you fail then pay Nuwagon to fix . I am not going to allow you to take my car anywhere , besides to where it is going to be a repairer of my choice

Thank you very much for your bad service and sending my car to backyard mechanics in Lens. I am not happy with both Prime Meridian Direct service and technispray your panel beater. Your cheap prices really means cheap and poor business. Consider me out. Let's call it quits.

The cover for mirror wires in windscreen is not fitted , they fitted reject windscreen. .
Bye bye
