OUTsurance Anmeldelser 

Initially good. My premiums were in advance, I cancelled over 2 months ago, they have continued to debit my bank account, to date over R1000. Despite 3 emails plus a formal letter of complaint, I have had no response. I guess the next step is the Ombudsman, what a pity to ruin what was initially good service. However Outsurance clearly don't appear to care about poor reviews.

About a decade ago, Outsurance fired me as a car insurance client saying I was a serial claimer. 1. Someone hit me and admitted guilt. 2. My car was broken into.

So I left. Ten years later,.looking for a new quote on home content insurance, I thought let's give them another chance. I was.declined!

Is this even legal ? As an honest human who has never and would never commit insurance fraud, to me, this is unethical and not acceptable!

Im posting on behalf of my cousin who is struggling with outsurance

I tried to log in with ID number: 8304035220084. I have been trying to pay my outsurance funeral cover which i have been paying for a few months.I called twice today and the agents decide my verification is not up to standard.I want to cancel this funeral cover because if I am already having so much trouble with outsurance now I do not want my relatives to sit in the same boat when its time to claim.I want my premiums back so that I can go open a funeral cover at Standard bank.I stay on a farm and I cannot go up and down to go answer the exact same questions in a shoprite or checkers.And I have been in both shops to find out why I couldn't pay.I want my premiums.You are buying time so my policy can lapse and keep my premiums while i could be having an active policy at the bank that dont mess me around.If this isn't sorted out by outsurance I'm taking this to the ombudsman.Im tired now and you wasted months of my time with this policy

Wasted 20 minutes completing forms then get a can not give a quote reply nothing else no reason rubbish

I called in this morning to review my premium because they sent me an email that the premium was increasing as from January 2025.
I spoke with Ntokozo Mkhize this morning and he was able to reduce the premium for me.
I got on a call with another insurance company and called back to advise I want to cancel , I then spoke with Sabelo and he assisted me very well!! He managed to reduce the premium as from the 1st December already and managed to retain me as a satisfied customer.
Thank You to both Ntokozo and Sabelo.

Disgusting and appalling behaviour from Outsurance.Their client was speeding because he didn’t want to miss a flight and turned right at a robot operated intersection without taking note of my car which was already in the intersection going straight.There was only one independent witness who was behind their negligent driver and he gave his details to the police.I made a third party claim against their client and they rejected it saying they will only take the information given by the people in their client’s car and won’t consider the independent witness who saw everything.

My family and I almost died and this is how we are treated.The irony in all of this is they asked me to provide an independent witness and my witness provided them with proof that he was there when it happened but still doesn’t matter.

To anyone thinking of making a third party claim,DON’T,your time will be wasted they will not pay out instead file a lawsuit against their client.

To anyone considering insuring with this company DON’T,if you get in an accident the other party will sue you and Outsurance won’t be there. Claim number 381443361

Feedback:they called me again to just waste my time and not offering to look into the claim again.How can you consider your client’s family as the only credible witness.Why did you waste my time asking me to send documents when you knew all along you were going to used things given by your client.

I will see your client in court soon and I will get my money,actual fair principles will be applied there.

Terrible experience with OUTsurance where “You always get something out”.
All of my sons sporting kit, gym kit and school bag with his laptop got stolen out of my Ford Ranger with fully comprehensive insurance. After we tried to claim we were told we had to have extra insurance for the contents. When we bought the vehicle OUTsurance was recommended by the dealership and we went for fully comp and had no idea we needed anything else. It seems like so many people get caught out by this as we have discussed it in the sporting groups at school as well as other friend groups. It’s going to be very annoying at all the school rugby matches as the refs are all OUTsurance - but at least we will be able to share what happened to us.

AMAZING customer service OUTsurance life Team.
Dima went above and beyond, I cannot thank her enough for her excellent service. We need more 'Dima's' in SA. 10/10

Out surance is a good company that creates great deals insures affordable coverage for business owners and domestic , family plan that gives out great earnings if covered

I haven't even accepted the bank finance offer or test driven my chosen vehicle before I've started being harrased by Outsurance. Not sure where you've gotten my number from but I absolutely will not be taking outsurance for the car if this is how you are going to harass me. 12 calls in one day? As early as 6:30 in the morning?

We tried to make a claim on our geyser (first claim we have tried to make in 5 years of having a policy with them) and they wouldn't pay the mere R4000.00 to have it fixed. We have paid over 125k in total of insurance for the past 5 years, right after we called them and they acknowledged that it was a fault on their side for not paying, they just asked "Must we put you through to cancellations " to cancel our insurance, instead of trying to fix the problem. Imagine taking R125k for someone to screw them for 4k amazing. People running it must feel so good about themselves.

Edit - Their response to us, after giving them bad reviews was to send us a new policy that would cost more..... great apology, try to take more money from us.

Dear Outsurance Director,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am writing to express my concern and dissatisfaction regarding the recent interview process I experienced with the Bellville branch. On 27 june 2024, I traveled from Milnerton to Bellville for an interview, and despite my efforts to follow up, I have not received any communication or feedback regarding the outcome.

I have sent multiple emails and attempted to reach out by phone, but unfortunately, I have not received any response. This lack of communication has been both disappointing and unprofessional, particularly given the time and effort I invested in attending the interview.

Due to this experience, I have decided to cancel my insurance with your company. I believe it is important to be affiliated with organizations that uphold high standards of communication and customer service, and I am concerned that this experience reflects poorly on your company’s values.

I would appreciate it if you could provide an update on the status of my application and any further steps I should take. Additionally, I would be grateful for any feedback you could offer regarding my interview.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.

I am still waiting on a refund from May month for insurance cover on a car I never received they keep asking for a bank statement every time I have to follow up

All I want to do is cancel my insurance as I have sold my house. Sibusiso who has a record response rate when signing up, now can't even be bothered to respond or acknowledge emails requesting a cancelation. I have been trying since 01 July to get in touch, but there has been nothing!! I got a short email saying someone would get in touch then silence. Corporate thieves in my opinion. The cancellation attempt is still ongoing, is this even real? Outsurances current store has a 1.1 rating, considering all the other ratings I have now read, that is very generous. Get your act together, the least you can do is have an ounce of respect from the people keeping you alive.

All just a scam to get customers by telling them they will pay you out if they can’t beat your current insurance. Received a call they couldn’t beat my current insurance and you get absolutely nothing from them, don’t get caught by those calls.

I have a business insurance with Outsurance,I'm not happy at all with the service that they are providing, I'm actually disappointed. It's been over 3 years now them. My claim was unsuccessful because they claim it was not an accident, really??I'm doing the cleaning business I'm not even getting a cent for my claim after being a client over 3 years with them. I want to cancel my policy and I will never ever recommend Outsurance to any one.

I recently had a very poor experience with OUTsurance when requesting a quote for building insurance. After entering my details into their online quote form, I received an email from Fabio Rodrigues asking for more information. I politely told him I was no longer interested in proceeding.

Instead of understanding, Fabio responded with a rude and unprofessional email questioning why I had requested a quote in the first place. When I explained again that I was no longer interested, he sent another insulting message mocking the way I constructed my email. He made sarcastic jokes and was generally disrespectful.

As a customer facing employee, Fabio Rodrigues should never have responded in such a rude and condescending manner. His emails were completely inappropriate and unacceptable. It seems OUTsurance has hired the wrong person to handle customer inquiries and quotes.

I would not recommend getting a quote from OUTsurance based on this terrible customer service experience. If this is how they treat potential customers, I can only imagine how they would treat policyholders who need to file a claim.

Fabio Rodrigues needs to be retrained on how to communicate with customers in a professional manner, or OUTsurance should consider replacing him with someone who has better customer service skills.

i went online to enquire for life cover. i am an existing client of outsurance. my car insurance and pet insurance is with outsurance.
an agent called me. she could not speak English. I had to repeat and spell everything to her. I eventually told her I cant speak to her anymore and put the phone down. Another agent called me. He asked me the same questions, I had just answered. I just gave up speaking to your customer care line. Please give your staff training. I cant even imagine the day I have to submit a claim with outsurance. What dread full people to deal with. Im moving my car insurance and pet insurance.

I’ve been with OUTsurance for about 6 years. In February this year I was struck head on by another driver who was looking at his cell phone and drifted into my lane. It’s now over three months later and I am still without my vehicle.

My primary complaint is that OUTsurance assigned the repairs to my vehicle to a hopelessly incompetent body shop in Cape Town. It took them nearly a month to sort parts for the body work. Then, when that was done, they belatedly informed me that there was a problem with the tensioner on the Serpentine Belt, which needed to be replaced. The body shop claimed they had one on order but six weeks later it still hadn’t arrived. So I ordered one myself from overseas and gave it to them. When I picked up the vehicle, engine lights were flashing all over the place, so I drove it right back to the shop. When they called me to pick up the vehicle again, within 30 minutes of driving, the serpentine belt came off, and it was with great difficulty that I managed to drive it back to the body shop. I subsequently insisted that OUTsurance pay to have the vehicle towed to a proper mechanic for assessment, who confirmed that the work had not been done properly, and that in any case the belt tensioner was easily obtainable. They had one the same day I took the vehicle in.

Now, as I said, this is mainly a problem with the panel beater. But OUTsurance insists on choosing for you in this regard. If you look for reviews for this particular company, you will find numerous experiences just like mine, indicating a long track record of poor workmanship and incompetence. And yet OUTsurance continued to insist that I had to bring the vehicle back to them.

Eventually I got so fed up that I decided to terminate my policy and move to another insurer. But the only way to do that was to speak to them on the phone. I filled out a form explaining exactly why I wanted to speak to them, but the person who called me had no idea that I was intending to cancel my policy. They then transferred me to an “financial advisor” who simply would not listen to me about my desire to cancel the policy, and tried for over 20 minutes to focus the conversation on why I wanted to cancel it, and to try to convince me not to do so. I finally got so fed up that I hung up on them and sent in a letter of complaint, threatening OUTsurance with a trip to the insurance ombudsman if they didn’t cancel my policy as requested.

Needless to say, the quotation I received from my new insurer was far better than OUTsurance, with much better benefits.
