TERRIBLE SERVICE.

I am very disappointed with the service I got from PMD last night. My car broke down near Oriel on the highway towards Germiston just before 9pm. I called PMD at 21:02 and requested Breakdown Tow Sevice, I waited there for about an hour after I was advised that a tow truck was on it's way. I called them again and I was told that the assistance provider canceled the trip and they are working on getting another one. I waited for another hour to 1 and half hours panicking, until I asked and paid someone to tow me to the nearest filling station where I will feel safe and wait for PMD's assistance provider. The tow truck arrived at 00:56 and I was told that I will be liable for the extra Kilo's as I am only covered for 30Km, so it was extra by 10km and bear in mind that was after they made me wait for about 2 and half hours on the highway at night. And I had to pay someone to tow me to a filling station for my safety. So it took PMD 4 hours to get me a tow truck! I could have been ****** or something bad could have happened to me had I waited for the tow truck there on the highway. TERRIBLE SERVICE! 😡 I VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH PMD!

Dear Sello M,

Thank you for your feedback. It is troubling to hear of your experience as we take the safety of our policyholders very seriously.

We regret to learn that your expectations surrounding the towing process were not met. The matter was escalated to our Towing and Roadside Assistance Team where a thorough investigation was conducted.

We are pleased to note that our roadside assistance team has been in contact with you and a resolution has been provided.

It will no doubt delight you to know that PMD in addition tour 24-hour nation-wide roadside assistance, unlike many of other insurances offer a transport benefit to see you safely home.

Assuring you of our continued best endeavours.

Kind regards,
