Very slow response to a reasonable request
Currently my insurance is via Integrisure as broker with Santam. Santam is my insurer for more than 40 years. On the 22nd January 2024 a Mediclinic vehicle crashed into the rear of my car at a stop street. I went to hospital for xrays, etc at Mediclinic expense as they have accepted full responsiblity for the accident. When I reported the accident and claim on 23.01.2024 I requested Integrisure to upgrade a courtesy vehicle (as covered in my policy) from manual to an automatic. The reason - I had major surgery on 08.01.2024 and it will be easier for me to drive an automatic vehicle (my own car is automatic, but must go in for repairs on 29.01.2024 after my claim was approved) After a few follow-up calls to Integrisure, the only progress on my request was: My request was forwarded to management and later 'we are still waiting for Santam'. On 29.01.2023 a manual courtesy vehicle was delivered to me. And then at last Santam informed Integisure at 09h46 on 30.01.2024 that an automatic vehicle was approved. This is POOR service Santam. My request took a week to respond to. It was effectively too late as my car will probably be repaired by 02.02.2024. It will be interesting to see Santam's response to this post.

There are a few factual errors in the feedback from 'management' in respect of the car rental.
1. I never changed cover after the accident. I requested an upgrade on merit to automatic based on my major surgery 2 weeks ago and the fact that I am with Santam for more than 40 years.
2. I did receive the manual rental vehicle on 29.01.2024, but only after I had to contact the CEO of Integrisure on the Saturday afternoon. At that stage no courtesy car was successfully booked for me.
The very long process to consider my request for an upgrade is just unacceptable. The approval at last on Tuesday 30.01.2024 is an indication of a lack of proper communication between Integrisure and Santam.
Thank you
