Not getting any help from Santam

Yesterday I called Santam to do a insurance quote for me. They refused to help me because my policy is through a broker. Then they give me the direct line number ***, and transfer me to the brokers. After on hold for almost 10min I hang up the phone. Then I went onto the Santam website and left my details in order for them to call me back, and that has not happened since yesterday. This morning I called the number they provided me with yesterday and was asked for an intermediatary code, what ever that is. So no getting through to Santam to do a simple quote. Time to move to an insurance that can actually help.

Good morning Johan,

Thank you for your post above. That is very unfortunate to hear and we really do apologise for that.

Once a quote request is submitted on the website there is an 8 working hour turnaround for contact with yourself.
We will however request a consultant to contact you and assist with a quotation.

Thank you and kind regards.
