PMD is failing me

it seems as if this is the only solution for this insurance to respond because even last time for my claim I had to write here in order to get your attention. my claim was approved on 23 December 2019 I nominated the panel beater from the list I got from the insurance there was a shut down for December holidays.the panel beater opened on 2 January 2020 but the lady who was assisting me did not approve the towing of the car to the panel beater. I called I was told she was on another call and i left a message for her to call me back she never called the towing was approved on 6 January 2020 when the car arrived in the panel beater the quotation was incorrect the panel beater sent an email to correct the quote of which took a while to be corrected by the time it was corrected days had gone by. now the issue is the quotation from the assessor had items missing when the panel beater informed them on 13 January 2020 of the additional items to be repaired. since then nothing has been done if i phone the lady does not answer my calls nor my emails. last i heard was from the panel beater saying that the insurance submitted an email on 20 January 2020 to say they will send an assessor to assessor the car again since then the assessor has not arrived. I have a car but i had to ride taxis to work

Dear Nhlanhla N,
 
Thank you for taking the time to bring your dissatisfaction to our attention. We appreciate all client feedback as it helps us improve our internal processes to ensure complete customer satisfaction.
 
A review of your claim confirms that an assessor has assessed your vehicle and our claims department has been in direct contact with your repairer to guarantee the swift repair of the insured vehicle.
 
We are of course, pleased to re-confirm that unlike with many other insurers, with PMD the excess payable when you claim under comprehensive cover reduces to absolute zero - and in a remarkably short period of time.
 
Assuring you of our continued best endeavours on your behalf.
 
Kind regards,
The PMD Team.

This toss and turning is unnecessary simple because the panel beater is listed in the list that you provided but now it seems as if you guys are of the view that they trying to reap you off. The reasons behind taking the car to another company for another opinion while the car has been assessed twice already now shows that you guys are trying to delay the process and not thinking about me as the client. it three months now I am paying for a car that I don’t have
