INSURANCE RIPOFF

This insurance company is a ripoff. It took 3 months to process a claim only to reject it later after that long. Then fix the car without contacting me and yet the claim is rejected. How does that work.

Dear Gavin

As has been previously communicated to you, once your claim was submitted and damages were assessed, it was found that the cost of repairs to your vehicle would be less than the excess payable on your policy. Your claim was therefore repudiated as ‘within excess’ (the more cost-effective alternative).

We understand that one of our representatives has been in extensive contact with you on this matter. We remain on hand to assist as far as possible, but remind you that it is within your right to approach the Ombudsman for Short-Term Insurance if you remain unsatisfied (www.insuranceombudsman.co.za).

Regards
Western National
