Title: Extremely Disappointed with Santam's Poor Service Delivery

I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and frustration with the service I have received from Santam regarding my car insurance claim. My vehicle has been at TCJ Auto Body for nearly four weeks, and despite numerous attempts to resolve the issue, I have been met with incompetence and a lack of communication from Santam.

The issues began when Santam incorrectly noted the wrong vehicle on my policy, leading to delays in processing my claim. I was asked to provide an invoice from MFC, which I promptly sent to Santam. However, the mistakes continued, and I was shocked to learn that Santam had instructed TCJ Auto Body to remove my vehicle and take it to Renew It, without my consent or knowledge.

As a result, I have been without a vehicle for over three weeks, which is unacceptable. I did not opt for car hire on my policy because I believed that a claim would be resolved within a reasonable timeframe. Instead, I have been subjected to a prolonged and stressful experience, with no end in sight.

TCJ Auto Body is still awaiting authorization from Santam to begin working on my vehicle, which is a clear indication of the company's ineptitude. As a client, I expect a certain level of service and efficiency, especially from a reputable insurer like Santam. Unfortunately, my expectations have been shattered, and I am left feeling frustrated and disillusioned.

I urge Santam to take immediate action to rectify this situation and provide me with the service I deserve. Until then, I will be forced to share my negative experience with friends, family, and online platforms to ensure that no one else suffers the same fate.

Good day still empty promises from the great Santam insurance i have been told here on hello peter and still no one has contacted me, i have been told that Sheldon Alias will contact me regarding my claims now to my surprise after Authorisation was given to repair my vehicle was given now I'm informed that Sheldon Alias is making everything difficult by removing life parts that needs to be replaced on my vehicle's suspension that was damaged in the accident and that tells me that my safty and my life does not matter to the Santam team i am truly unhappy with the service I'm receiving from the useless Santam team, like i have mentioned before that i was **** to as a customer that TCJ does not have a opening to take my vehicle in and TCJ was told that myself as a customer wants my vehicle to be move and repaired by renew it which was all lies from a person called Ishrina who was never in contact with me at all then to my surprise while i was sitting in the office of the manager at TCJ i heard Ishrina telling lies, now my vehicle was taken for wheel alignment at super quick and the report was send to Sheldon Alias which he was not up to his standards he then now arranged for my vehicle to be towed again for wheel alignment at his people so now i feel that this team of Santam that is working on my claim which is "Emma Meyer, Ishrina and Sheldon Alias" is working together to make this process difficult because my vehicle did not go to the a Auto Body shop that they working with and possibly gaining something out of it. I'm so angry and disappointed with Santam insurance and i feel that no one is doing anything about my grievance as a customer it's week number 4 now going on week number 5 and still the Santam team is failing to do their jobs as they should, all they are doing to prolonging everything regarding my claims and making my life difficult as a customer this is really poor service delivery on it's best WELL DONE!!!!! "SHELDON ALIAS, EMMA MEYER AND ISHRINA" and Client Service of the Great SANTAM INSURANCE!!!!!!!!
I can see that i will be without a vehicle for 4 more weeks
