PATHETIC SERVICE - STANDARD BANK INSURANCE

My house was flooded on 11/04/2022 and I lodged a claim with Standard Bank Insurance on 12/04/2022. To date my Claim 22/139144 has not been Settled. My home was destroyed so badly that it was not livable. Assessors came to the Property 2 weeks later. I spent many hours for the past Couple months with numerous Consultants with not much Assistance and zero Empathy. I was given an Agreement of Loss to Sign. I enquired about the Settlement amount as it seemed much less compared to the damages occurred. Upon receiving a Breakdown from a Consultant I noticed that my 2 bedrooms Built-in Cupboards were omitted. I queried this with a Consultant. Called in many times and was advised that a Revised Agreement of Loss will be issued to Me. I was annoyed and frustrated as my so called handler Palesa Mbote did not find it necessary to advise me thereof. I realized that if my Bedrooms Built-ins were omitted what else was overlooked and even my tiles started lifting due to the water logged. So I suggested that a Registered Independent Contracter do a Quote which I submitted end of June 2022. I sent it to the Handler of my Claim along with other documents. After 6days she acknowledges my documents and then submits for Audit. I kept sending e-mails but was advised that it is still with the Auditor. What Pathetic Service, promises of call backs not received. No updates/ keeping Me informed. I was at my wits end and finally went for help to CRC -Customer Complaints Centre. They cascaded to SBIS Complaints Department. I was given a turnaround time of another 8 days for Resolution. My Complaint was Closed but I'm still waiting for my Claim Settlement. I have been more than Patient but it's now going for 4months and still NO RESOLUTION. The Service from Standard Bank Insurance is Deplorable and no-one seems to want to take Ownership of my Claim. Sent emails to Team Leaders but to No Avail. I have been Loyal to a Brand who doesn't even Care about Me. I know my home will never be the Same but the process of Settling my Claim should not be so tedious. I am THE VICTIM here....

I received an Agreement of Loss of R1950. Seriously!!! My home was destroyed to the extent that it was not livable and I'm suppose to sign an Agreement of Loss for that Amount. Is this a Joke???
