I have a cell c insurance that is meant to cover my phone for theft and damage which I pay every month. on the 24 April 2017 I took my phone in for repairs (damaged screen) at Maponya mall Cell C outlet, they then made me fill in the claim forms and they e-mailed them to Cell C surance, I do have the proof of that e-mail. on the 28th of April I called to follow up with Cell C surance to check if they received the claim forms as I was advised by the store agents. I was told that they did not receive my claim documents, I then resent them using my own e-mail address ([protected]@sttb.co.za) to [protected]@finrite.co.za and I also received a "read confirmation" from a SYS CELL C. I again called their number which is [protected] which you hold for about 30 minutes without any answer and when they eventually answer, I was still told that they did not receive my claim form, seeing that we not reaching any conclusion on the matter I requested their physical location so I can personally drive the forms, the address provided by the phone agent was 390 ontdekkers, roodepoort, I drove to that location only to find out that is a shopping complex (florida junction). till to date I am struggling to confirm the receipt of my claim form. I also wonder those people who does not have or afford airtime to hold on for 30minutes if they ever receive help.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.
It's so frustrating to be a cell c customer lately I have a cell c insurance then I made a claim earlier last month till today I haven't got anything back
It's is possible to pay the outstanding installments at once n cancel the contact?

HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE SERVICE! THE WORSE CELL-PHONE INSURANCE THUS FAR!
I do not actually understand what the use of c-surance is. My screen cracked a few months go, I was told I had to pay a ridiculous amount for the access fee. I disputed this, took my device back and still the monthly deductions were continuing as usual. I then realized I can't be paying for nothing and letting c-surance get away with my money and not actually doing what they claim they do in their pamphlets and home pages(which is never doe by the way, atleast not without a fight) My phone went in on the 23rd of August 2018. I was told I approximately have to wait a week before the process. This is the third week without my device now, I have to be the one who makes the effort to follow up on the progress(or no progress actually cause it seems like it will take forever to get to me) .The device I handed in was an Iphone 6s, last week when I called to do a follow up I was told the only available devices they have are samsungs. I DO NOT WANT ANDROID! I don't even get why c-surance feels customers should take less than what they submitted. I was told t wait again, another week. This is the third week without my device, I called in today spoke to one of the rudest call center agents by the name of Koketso(a guy) who hung up on me when I requested to speak to the manager. The service this cell phone insurance company offers is disappointing, I would NEVER recommend c-surance for ANYONE. It has been such a tedious and its VERY inconveniencing. I have sent an email to c-surance as well as sm@cellc.co.za with my the ID number and Claim Number. If I don't get my phone by the end of this week I am cancelling ALL this rubbish plus my contracts with cell C. I will broadcast the poor service in all my social media platforms as well. I cannot be dealing with such. Contact number [protected]/[protected].
Hi
Just had terrible experience with C-surance. You pay insurance premium for specific mobile equipment value, but if they can't repair the phone they want to replace it with cheaper phone for the value at the time of loss, this is rediculous as the phone is damaged! what value do they want to derive from a damaged phone? This means that if you take good care of your phone and after two years it gets damaged it will be replaced with a phone around 10% or less the value it was 2 years back. Your insurance premium does not decrease over this time. What is the benefit of having insurance? If your phone gets damaged or stolen in the first couple of months, there's a hefty excess payment required. They still deducting the same premium for a phone worth next to nothing. Cancelling it this month and no more C-surance as well as Cell C. I am done, and would advise friends and foe to rethink dealing with these two... Insurance claim was for [protected] and I can be contacted on [protected].

Hi my name is Kedibone.My phone's screen was damaged and I took it to cell c waterfall mall in rustenburg.Even today my phone is still there and it's almost 3 weeks now.The forms were filled and my ticket number is 511110.Everyday I've been phoning C surance to find out why is my phone not collected from cell c store and they always promise to send the courier guy to collect it.The courier guy when he arrives at cell c he doesn't my phone but collects other phone's, simply because of the poor service from C surance as he wasn't told to collect it.How am I supposed to deal with this, every month I'm paying for the insurance for what?
[Ticket ID: 764924]
I have contacted CellC Newmarket and advised that they I have waited 6 months for the claim to be approved.
In the meantime, I have already purchased a new phone, as one could expect.
Please advise the following:
• Why can this amount not just be deducted of the amount that Cell C / Csurance will pay out
• This amount will be paid in cash, as the claim took 3 months to receive any feedback and still not resolved. And cash is what I have already paid for my current phone
• What is the amount, as it should be equal to what I would have paid for my handset if bought it new cash? i.e. REPLACEMENT VALUE
• When will this matter be resolved?
It has been 6 months, CELL C advised me to go for CSURANCE. Cell C are the ones I pay for this cover! The reason is to have it replaced if lost or stolen - WITHIN A DAY or TWO MAX!
CELL C cannot blame CSURANCE as I ONLY dealt WITH CELL C!

It's very frustrating as client whereby you have phone insurance and they are unable to assist you in regard for claiming your phone. I've tried to contact the cell c surance several time I keep on hold more than 30 minutes no consultant will up the phone. C surance it is failing clients, since I submit my claim in 02 Feb 2017 and also paid the access fee I'm struggling to get hold of them please contact me on this number [protected]
