Outsurances panel beater damaged my vehicle
My vehicle was 'repaired' by a panel beater instructed by Outsurance, but in the process they damaged my dashboard.

More than a month after the damage that was caused by their negligence, I am still struggling to get this damage repaired.

This has cost me numerous telephone calls and a lot of unplanned time out of the office, not to mention the emotional strain. Outsurance, their assessors and the panel beaters have not been helpful and have instead been wasting my time. They seem to forget that I am the customer, the aggrieved party.

Instead of rectifying their mistake, I am being further inconvenienced by the incompetence of all parties involved here, being Outsurance, their assessors and the panel beaters.

Avoid this consultant like the plague
Had an accident (my fault I'd admit), submitted claim, Grace kept on referring me to Legal for the other persons's claim, then she sent me to an assessor for my vehicle. She then called telling me my damages, my excess and where I had to take the vehicle for repairs. During this telephonic conversation which I had difficulty hearing and understanding, she suddenly tells me I have limited cover and the claim is being cancelled - suddenly she will sort the other party out. Because I was confused I asked her to email me all the details - she did not, and I sent her a reminder because I am more interested in sorting the other party out. She sends an email back saying the other party must deal with the legal department. Having objected to this contradictory info, I threatened escalation - no response.

I have had occasion to deal with Outsurance on more occasions that I should need to and I have always been happy with the service. This experience with Grace makes me wonder whether Outsurance has dropped its standards. And they don't have a channel to escalate complaints!

Truly disappointing with such incompetent staff
We had a storm last year and had outsurance send some fly by night builders to fix the leaking. Anyway come January, we have another storm, and guess what, it starts leaking again everywhere where they fixed. So we phone outsurance and after numerous calls, eventually get someone out who claims we did not maintain our roof, etc, if that be the case why fix it the first time. Jackosn, who by the way is the most rude person you can ever find, he forgets we pay his salary, with as much attitude as you can find tells us outurance will not be fixing the leaks.

Anyway my husband phoned the manager, Trevor Naidoo, who assisted us and asked us to get a quote and fax it through, which we did, and my husband phoned twice and confirmed approval. Builders have started working alreday, only to get JACKSON calling again, saying it was not approved, and they will not be paying for the work done. We have already signed with the builder to start the work because we got approval twice from you, now the builder wants to take legal action against us. We have stopped all work, please can you come back to us urgently.

I haven’t even started and already I was having so many trouble with them
At the end of Oct2009 I was contacted by Outsurance. I have accepted the new insurance quote with them. After waiting for the stuff in the mail I phoned them in min Nov2009 asking them to delay the start date from the beginning of Dec2009 to Jan2010.

The first payment went of the 1st December 2009. So I phoned them and asked them what is going on and why they have deducted the money from my account. Was then told I need to go to the bank to stop it or get bank statement and sent it to them and they will pay me back. And again money was deducted from my account on the 28 December 2009.

So I had to phone them again. And every time there systems was updated with the new details but every time they f%#$up and I had to do all the work of sending them the stuff and phoning them. And to date I am still waiting for some of the money. I have also told them that I am canceling the whole incurrence policy. I haven’t even started and already I was having so many trouble with them.

Thank you very much Oustance for not saving me any money but doubling my installments
Last year October I contacted Outsurance for house cover, granted only if they would cancel my SAHL insurance. I was promised that this was done. I have just received my annual policy update from SAHL and it was never cancelled. I have had double insurance for a YEAR! I spoke to Sipho at Outsurance and he confirmed that my details were never forwarded to SAHL as promised. I must now take time and effort to complete 3000 forms to have my SAHL policy cancelled and was also informed that I would only get a refund of 50%! Thank you very much Oustance for not saving me any money but DOUBLING my installments.

Billing me when I haven't even asked for insurance
It all started with my mom asking for a Quote . The consoltant said to her that my bank details where needed in order to create an quote and he promised that my account would not be debited . My mom then said than you and the consultant said he would phone me then to confirm if i wanted the insurance or not needeless to say he never phoned my mom then later that week got an sms saying thank you for choosing outsurance. When my mom told me this i then phoned them and asked how is it possible for somones mother to agree to insurance for me when nobody even phoned me to ask if i even wanted insurance !!! The guy then promised me that he would cancel it and then went on to say that he would wait for my call to confirm that i sould not want this insurance the cheek to ask the customer to phone him back otherwise they will debit my account ! I did never the less try and phone him but never got trough to him .After all that guess what they still debit my account after i said i did not want insurance!!Then Anthony phoned me and promised to credit my account and write a letter to my bank to statement that it was not my fault and it was there mistake .To date nothing has been done!!!

Outsurance does not perform like advertised
My geyser burst during the weekend of 13 October 2009. I were away and when I got home the Sunday night, the house were completely under water. I register my claim on Monday monrning at outsurance - Naome answered the phone and I deal with her eversince. Late that afternoon Outsurance send a company to replace the geyser. These people damaged my bathtub (by letting the copper pipes fall into the bath more than once from the ceiling), the made a hole in my facebrick wall between the bathroom and my passage, only to fill the hole with cement (that looks terrible), they made another hole in the wall to my front door. Then they bumped two holes in one of my bedrooms door with the pipes when they removed it from the bathroom. I phoned Outsurance the next morning, explaining that since they have sent that survice provider, they have to sort this out. Well NOTHING happened yet. No damage fixed, carpet not replaced and they do not phone back as they promise. Every time that I have to take time off, it cost me a lot of many since I am a contractor and do not get paid if I am not at work. I suggest that they conclude this claim as fast as they advertise. This is already more than a month.

I am so disgusted in the way my call was handled
A month ago my wife had the unfortunate luck of having a car roll into the back of her brand new 2 month old car, since the car that caused the damage was insured with outsurance I called them to odge a third party claim, I asked the consultanat what to do and she advised that she would take all my details and a person from the legal team would give me a call... I supplied all the info and waited ... and waited 2weeks later I have just phoned them to find out what is the story and was now given a pretoria number to call... WOW what attitudes do these people have, I am so disgusted in the way my call was handled, firstly the lady that was talking to me I dont know what her problem is but she has a real big terrible attitude ... now I am told that I must fax the docs, my id drivers and all of that to another number, I dont have a problem doing this but why was this not told to me the first time I phoned and not 2 weeks later when I had to phone again, and then the biggest complaint is the way they talk to people, it is absolutely disgusting... I was i the process of signing up with Outsurance through Vivian but after that call NEVER will i be assosiated to such rubbish!

I want my money back as it was a lot that i paid for no service received
I have been with outsurance a few years back and had paid my premiums and then cancelled my policy and have never claimed and know they wont refund what i paid when i called to enquire what went on i spoke to a lady who was rude and had no manners what so ever.

I want my money back as it was a lot that i paid for no service received.

This a severe inconvenience, a big waste of my time and not to mention the petrol costs
I am very unhappy with the situation regarding a claim with Outsurance. I have a Mini Cooper, which is still under motor plan, so can only have it panel beaten at an approved BMW panel beater. Outsurance recommended that it be fixed at Auto Helderberg BMW, which is in Somerset West. I did not think too much of this, until I went today to deliver the vehicle to be repaired. I live in Rondebosch and it took over 2 and a half hours for me to drop it off and be dropped back. This is completely ridiculous that Outsurance recommend a repairer so far away. Does everyone who owns a BMW on motor plan have to drive out this far to get their car fixed?!

Not only is this a severe inconvenience, a big waste of my time and not to mention the petrol costs. I am very unhappy and hope that Outsurance will ease my dissatisfaction by organising to have the car delivered back to me in Rondebosch, including petrol.
