Not a good insurance company

Your Premium gets deducted every month, on time, but when a claim is submitted and they need to get your money back from the 3rd party, they drag their feet, while you out of pocket they just don't care, oh and you don't get your money Back. I was warned by friends and Colleagues but didn't listen.

My Claim was rejected by the 3rd party insurance, and my Insurance company will not even fight this???
What I would like to know, “is it not the responsibility of my Insurance Company to send an assessor out to the scene of where the accident took place and assess and argue my case?

Hello Sharon C,

Thank you for reaching out to us. 

We are delighted to see that your accident claim was approved within a short time. 

We understand that the recovery process is important to you, specifically due to the hope of recovering your excess, and we regret that the process has not met your expectations. Kindly keep in mind that this is a legal process involving the third party’s insurer. It can include litigation in court, which is why it may take up to three years to finalise, depending on the cooperation of the other insurer. 

While we cannot guarantee the recovery of your excess, we remain committed to pursuing this matter diligently. Our market conduct team will contact you to give you more detailed feedback on your query.

It will no doubt reassure you to know that Prime offers a 24-month fixed premium guarantee on all claim-free policies! Assuring you of our continued best endeavours

Assuring you of our continued best endeavours.

Kind regards,
The Prime SA Team

If PMD gave me a letter confirming my excess, to the company who's vehicle was involved, they I would not be out of pocket, But PMD refused, to assist with a letter. Now I am paying a loan, struggling to make ends meet, as a single mother and providing for a pensioner that only gets SASSA.
PMD will not fight your case if the accident is a minor accident.
