Santam - bad attitude, bad business

I'm not surprised that Santam have such a low rating on reviews. This happened way back in 1986 and one would have expected them to have changed their attitude and policy towards clients, but it seems not. I was insured with Santam for comprehensive household insurance at the time. I made a few small legitimate claims for some garden furniture that was ****** and at a later stage for clothing and other items ****** during a burglary. Months later I moved from where I was living, to the Johannesburg area and out of the blue received a letter from Santam to say that I was considered an "uninsurable risk" and my cover would cease immediately. I was about to go on holiday two days later, but had to cancel because I could not take the chance of being uninsured. As said - a long time ago, but I have never forgiven Santam for this and never will. They have earned their bad reputation.
