SANTAM INSURANCE A HORRIBLE SERVICE PROVIDER AS A RESULT OF PATHETIC EMPLOYEES.
I had an accident on the 9th of May 2018 caused by an employee driving Edge Technologies JHB Company Car. I put in a third party claim as l did not want to claim from my own insurer iWyze. I submitted all documents needed. My claim number is ********** 10. These documents were quotations for the repair of the car and also medical costs incurred.
Santam refuses to settle the consequential costs arising from their policyholder's actions. These include medical costs incurred and l supp**** them with receipts, costs of hiring a car from Bidvest for 3 weeks, communication costs amounting to R1000.
The legal consultant helping me was very arrogant and had no regard for the rule of law. Her name is Precious Madonsela. She said to me l should not tell her how to do her job when l asked her why she was not communicating with me about the progress of the claim after 18 days, The Insurer has an obligation from the SAIA to corresponding regularly at least every 14 days. She also had no regard for the TCF principles. I doubt if she knows them.
I escalated the matter to her immediate Manager Melvin Naidoo but he was of no use as well and initially refused to meet with me after driving for 400 km to meet with him. I have been trying to call Sydney their Manager but to no avail.
The offer given was very prejudiced and does not cover any consequential costs. It only covers the repair of the car.
