Good day, I just spoke to a consultant and the manager/supervisor. You gave me a quote for over R900 then brought it down to R828. My friend spoke to you on Friday. Her car is a 2006 model and her house content is R300 000, mine is a 2004 model and content of R200 000, but her monthly payment is R548 for everything. How can you quote me double? Delana
MiWay’s response on 07.02.2012 11:19
Hi Delana,
Thanks for your comment and the opportunity given to respond. During the quote process, we ask a series of questions to determine your premium. This means that even if the value of your insured items are less, you may pay a higher premium based on other factors that affect your premium. Anthony has been in contact with you to discuss this in more detail with you and we urge you to contact us should you require any further assistance.

My vehicle reistration No. is *. Why my premium is encreased from R355.00 to R 392.12 without informing me in advance. This to me is a concern regarding communication. Secondly, due to my financial constrains I am deceiding to cancel Netstar. What will be my premium based on the suggested decision?
MiWay’s response on 07.02.2012 9:44
Hi Sehlapelo,
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Pamela has been in contact with you to discuss your concerns with you in more detail and to answer any questions you had about possibly reducing your premium. To reiterate, your premium may be increased annually on the anniversary of your policy and an increase is based on factors such as inflation, non-payment of premium and your claims history over the last twelve months. We notify you of the increase in writing thirty days in advance and we’re sorry to hear that you did not receive yours.
Pamela has confirmed the correctness of the e-mail address we sent the notification to and she has sent your updated quotes to that same address as well. Should you require any further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

I am a very diappointed client who feels that i and my partner have been subjected to harassment, neglect, foul play and sabotage. I entrusted my vehichle (claim no. 360550) with glasfit Pietermaritzburg to replace/repair the windscreen on our vehicle. to our disappointment we had to take the car back four times to have damages, caused by them, repaired. on returning the car the forth time at approx. 15:15 pm. the car was retuned friday at approx. 12:00 pm my partner phoned to tell me that there is damage to the cloth part of the roof where the damages where covered up to hide the damages which where not there prior to us leaving the car in their care. when i returned from work at 14:00 pm i noticed after thorough inspection that there too is scratches on the right side mirror, a black substance on the front left bumper the panel beating and respray they had to do is not up to standard. i then went back to the manager of the pmb branch on the same day to report this and he said they are not at fault as the tapes can prove it. he said that he watched all the fortage from wednesday the 1st of jan 2012 till friday 12:00 when the car was picked up and did not notice any foul play. Please help me as i feel like a victum who is helpless in this regard. Please note that i have requested not to have the car taken back to glasfit the second time and miway said they should fix the damages they caused . i also after the third mess up requested glass fit repair the damages at our trusted family panel beater, whom we have trusted for years with all our vehicles, to thave the car repaired there but they refused and said we must trust them yet again to fix the problem. thanking you in advance.

I had a claim this week – my car was broken into and my driver’s window smashed. I phoned early in the morning and within 10 minutes had been given the approval and contacted by the repair company to set up a time for me to bring my car in. There was a slight problem as the mechanism had also been damaged and was not supposed to be part of the same claim, James could not help me with this as I was insistent that I felt it should be, but his team manager Monique did and at the end of the day I am a very satisfied customer. James and Monique did a great job, thanks.

Dear Miway, I wouuld like to express my disappointment at the service I recieved from Miway. I gave Miway cancellation notice on my policy on 01/11/2011 for my policy to be cancelled as at 30/11/2011. On 10/12/2011 I sent through a reminder as I did not receive any confirmation. I then received a call from a consultant requesting the reasons for cancellation etc. I then noticed that an amount of -756.75 was deducted from my account on 01/12/2011. when I queried this on 26/01/2012 I recently received a call from your consultants advising that only a refund of 676.75 will be refunded as life cover was provided for December i.e. after I cancelled the policy and took up insurance with another insurer. I do not accept that I should be charge for December as I had given sufficient notice of cancellation and I should not pay for life cover on a cancelled policy. If this is the way that Miway treats its clients then I will not do any future business or recommend your company to any of my friends or family. Disappointedly yours, Ling Mandrie
MiWay’s response on 06.02.2012 10:28
Hi Ling,
We need to unconditionally apologise for any inconvenience we have caused you. Mammuso has been in contact with you to confirm that we have cancelled your policy and refunded you the amount for the MiPersonal accident cover that was kept active.
Thanks to your feedback, we have been able to identify that this is why your premium was not previously refunded in full and we thank you for being patient while we sorted out the hiccup. We appreciate your comment and the opportunity given to respond and we urge you to contact us should you require any further assistance.

How thank you so much. In August 2010 my car got into collusion with another car and it was repaired in a good way coz I never experience any problem resulted from the collusion.
Today 03 February 2012 I was called by MyWay and they told me that I will get half of access fee that I paid and the balance will be paid on settlement of the total amount that was paid to the garage.It was a suprise coz i didnt expect this although I was told but i thought it will take some time.
THANK YOU SO

I have one car insured with MiWay and on Sunday I bought myself a secondhand bakkie and I would want to insure through the same insurer. Midday Monday this week I phoned MiWay, got through to the Call Centre and spent at least 20 minutes on the phone with one of your agents. He was slow, did not speak clearly and he was obviously new as I was put “on hold” a few times whilst he asked questions from colleagues on what to do. Eventually at the end of our 20 minute, tiresome conversation he quoted me R370/month which I was very happy with. we agreed that he would mail me the quote, etc so that I could read and confirm. It is now Thursday and no further word from MiWay. What can I do to sort this
out, I dont want to go to another insurer

I agree with Nichola, the process of getting a quote is just far too long. No less than 15 minutes. Why cant details be captured online like on HIPPO? Why must all the T&C’s be read telephonically? It can be provided and accepted online together with the quote.
2. Retail value is defined as the value a dealer will give you for your car according to the mileage, condition and age – should clients therefore not be able to specify the cover on their cars? Why are clients forced to be covered for an average retail amount that could be way above the true retail value, which contributes toward high premiums?
MiWay’s response on 03.02.2012 9:56
Hi Ellen,
Thanks for your comment and for asking the questions that allow us to interact with you. Anthony has been trying to call you, but he has unfortunately not been able to reach you. In the interim, please be advised that we have an online facility you may use to obtain a quote if you prefer to do so rather than to be quoted while on the telephone. Our telephonic quote process is designed to ensure we obtain all relevant information from you in order to provide you with complete and correct information and an accurate premium. We’re sorry if the time it takes has caused you any frustration.
We make use of the auto dealers guide to establish what the average value of a vehicle is based on its model and year of manufacture. Most insurers make use of this guide to determine the value your vehicle is insured at. Should you require any further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

I am very impressed with Mi-Ways service! I have been with another insurance company for over a year but during my time with Mi-way I was involved in an accident whereby it was not my fault (someone drove into the back of me) and I had to pay the excess. You would think that most insurance companies would collect the monies from the other party and never refund you, especially if you are no longer with their insurance company. Today i got a call to say the monies have been paid and a transfer will be done to my account! How unexpected!! if i ever change insurance again i will definately go back to Mi-way because they truly offer fantastic service!
MiWay’s response on 02.02.2012 16:31

I would just like to say that I am very disappointed by the service that I have received. I had a car accident last week wednesday and as yet have not received any further information. I have phoned the agent and left message after message as well as sent an e-mail but I still don’t know where my car is or where it is going to go to be repaired. I am currently lending a car from my brother and I can’t even tell him when I will get my car back. I called again this morning and I am still waiting a call back. I have to say that the woman helped me on the day of the accident was excellent because she was very helpful and organised that my car got towed. So to go from that to having no service at all is disappointing to say the lest.

ek het reeds einde November ‘n eis ingedien teen u klient C354027. nogsteeds wag ek vir die eis om goed gekeur te word.Christelle du Plooy beskuldig egter deurgans haar klient om nie op haar oproepe te reageer nie. volgens u klient het hy reeds al 9 Januarie met Christelle du Plooy geskakel. na ‘n foon oproep Vrydag 27 Januarie, het Christelle gese sy sal vandag (Maandag 30 Januarie 2012) my antwoord. dit het ook nie gebeur nie. dit is patetiese diens. hoe lank nog moet ek wag, en wie gaan vir my ‘n motor gee terwyl my motor in is vir herstelwerk. ek het u maatskappy die opsie gegee om my voertuig in die tweede week van Januarie (tot voor die skole 18 Januarie heropen het) te herstel. ek het skoolgaande kinders wat vervoer moet word en my beroep behels dat ek ‘n voertuig moet he. swak, swak diens!!!
absolutely the worst service ever from the MiWay claims department. I’ve been strugglins since end of November to get a claim finalised. poor poor service!!

Hi Irma,
Please accept our sincere apology for any inconvenience you may have experienced and thank you for taking the time to comment. We have received the two quotations from your broker to repair your vehicle and we have since made an offer. Your broker then returned the offer unsigned as the quotation had a typing error.
We have since received a new quotation and we have forwarded it to our assessor to clarify the extent of your damages as your broker insisted that we pay a higher settlement amount. Our legal department has called your broker to discuss the process in more detail and we assure you that we will provide you with feedback as soon as we’re able to.
Should you require any further assistance in the interim, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards,

I made requested a call back as I wanted to ask something on my policy.
The consultant who called me back asked me to hold while transfering me to client services.The person who answered @ cleint srvices kept on chatting to the people @ the backround,while I was busy saying halo halo he said halo placed me on hold again then hung up.Personaly I feel it was rude & unprofessional.I am highly irrate right now as my query is still pending.

Good Morning,
I have just taken out a new policy with MiWay, and must admit i am very impressed with the level of service as well as the competitive premium i was offered.
However i have had one problem.
When i initially took out the policy i explained in detail as to the immobiliser fitted to my vehicle. I was helped by Morne, he then listed the immobiliser as “Factory Fitted”. However I was not entirely sure as to whether it was or not and nowhere in the conversation did i state that it was factory fitted.
I then phoned back to try and find out whether or not it was considered “factory fitted”. I was asked if i fitted the immobiliser myself and stated that I did not fit the immobiliser myself and received the vehicle with the immobiliser already fitted.
When i phoned back i stated that i was taking the car for the necessary inspection soon i was told that i must just ask them to clarify the details around the immobiliser for me.
Now initially the only option for an inspection center i was given was a GlasFit.
And when i arrived at Glasfit i was informed by them that they are not allowed to check the security system as part of the inspection. So this morning i phoned to find out what exactly i am supposed to do, as well as to why i was told initially to take my vehicle to glasfit and that that was fine, the respone i received was that If the immobiliser is viewed as “factory fitted” then it does not need to be tested and the inspection may be performed by glasfit. And that if i am unsure i need to take my car to be fully inspected again at a different inspection center that can test the immobiliser.
I must admit though that the fact that i now apparently need to take my car somewhere else, again, to be inspected fully, again, Is rather irritating. With no clear indication as to what i should have done in the first place, because even when i phoned to query whether my immobiliser should be listed as factory fitted or not i was told to query it at the inspection(with glasfit). The different answers i have been receiving are not comforting.
I feel that me taking my vehicle to inspected at a Glasfit as directed appears to have been a waste of my time, but i was told this morning that “the inspection doesn’t take very long”. Now that is prefectly true, however organising to get there and have the time especially during the week is not a simple task when one works full-time as do most people.
Now I simply wish to know what exactly i need to do to as this point to ensure that my vehicle is covered completely and everything that needs to be checked has been checked. Whether or not i need to get my immobiliser tested or if it is not necessary due to the fact that it is working and that i received the vehicle with the immobiliser and did not fit it myself.
I do not want something to happen and then to be told that I am not covered because i didn’t do something or the other. I hope you can understand my predicament and help me clear this up as simply and easily as soon as possible as my cover comes into effect on the 1st of February 2012. Hence a fair degree of urgency.

my car has been with the panel beaters select by you for me in Richards Bay, this if the 3rd week now.They are telling me that they are still working on it.How sure can i be that they wont strip my car to fix other cars. i was told that it was going to take Marvic panel beaters only 1 week to get the car fixed but its taking longer and i want the car back.the panel beater cant even tell when i will get the car back or at least tell me what they are doing with it. I went to their workshop on 25th and found that the car has never been touched and phone Rosy to complain. she told me she was going to phone me back the didnt Im still waiting for her call.this is the worst service i have ever received its quite the opposite of what the advert says about you as a company.what criteria do you use to select the panel beater because it doesnt look like you know them. if your consultant can tell me to deal with them because she cant see what they do when i complain that shows incompetency of your staff because they should know how to deal with your suppliers, that what i actualy pay for not to deal with the issues myself.tell me how to deal with this kind of stress because I dont know what to do now. tell me when I will get the car back and if it can be checked before i take it back that all the parts are still the same parts that were in the car, that the car was never tempered with because i am not paying until I am sure that everything is still right. you really need to find other panel beaters otherwise you will loose customers.

I called in this afternoon to report my car accident – I was shocked to hear that I needed to give permission to be check with ITC for my claim to be logged especially since I have been paying premiums for so long and have never faulted on my payments. I just feel whether or I have a judgement should’t have nothing to do with my insurance cover. I disagree with the principle!!!!
