Unhappy me.

Very good when taking out an insurance with them but when claiming, they will make you feel like they actually making you a favour. Had an accident on a weekend and I was told that I can only get a car hire from Monday to Friday during the day as people who are working on car hire knocks off Fridays ,mind you I'm in the bush and needed to get to the funeral, so which means I had to wait in the bush until Monday but paying for car hire .had to make plans ,luckily someone helped to fix the car so that it can be drivable which I stopped them from taking it with the tow truck , came back on Sunday, I got car hire on Tuesday and my car was at my house for 2 weeks before they came to fetch it to the penal beater, 30day of the car hire came and they told me that I'm on my own now and they can't extent car hire unless I pay that myself. Even today I'm still fighting for the car to be totally fixed because some of the parts that was damaged, they always told the penal beater that they can't buy so even now my car is not totally fixed since last year 2023 October until to date, so PMD is only good when taking insurance, but very bad when claiming from them.

Unfortunately, external factors beyond ours and the repairer’s control, like the availability of parts as well as further unseen damage to the vehicle following the initial assessment, can affect the duration of the repair of a vehicle.
