SA Home Loans Insurance

Disappointed on SA HOMELOANS

If you want to buy a house and SA homeloans gives you a full package on insurance, less interest rate, think about your peace of mind. I'm suddenly expected to be a building expert and know that my roof has bolts and so on. How is it my fault cos I've never been inside the ceiling? Their insurance always avoid to pay at all costs. I want to move my bond and everything to another bank. When interest rates go down, they review 6 months later. It's a mess. They refused to pay for rain damaged because there are no bolts, that's weired.

Rejection of my claim for my outside ceiling area

This is the worst insurance ever I put the claim for my outside ceiling few days ago that was damaged by the weather and they reject the claim.. and yes they are always looking for the reason to reject the claim and I've been trying to cancel them since I am not happy with their services but they refused for me to do so they are the worst insurances company I don't want to work with them anymore

SA Homeloans the biggest ******

This is the worst company to be insured with. They look for reasons to reject with the help of a horrible loss adjustor. I thought an assessor supposed to first assess but they send a loss adjustor to basically question tenants that moved in days before the damage was done. They look for reasons to reject. There were before and after pics of a DB box and an invoice to show it was fixed but it isn't even in this loss adjustors report. What happens to that? Are they even allowed to say it's in a previous claim when it's not, I've asked for proof of this but don't think they will send. Worst company to do business with, they used to send Assessors but to save costs I'm assuming, send people who don't even know what they are looking for. Will definitely change insurers, this is the worst company I've ever dealt with.

Leaking pipes in the wall

The geyser pipes leakage in both bathrooms right inside the walls. Reported to SAHL Insurance and we told that they do not cover the pipes now the tiles are falling off due to this severe leakage.

Diamond In the Rough

I took home insurance with SA Home Loan. I followed all required steps to cancel the insurance; this department did not act on my request and left it unattended for 2 months. This department did not even take the time to respond to my calls when I called to inquire about the progress on the cancellation. The sole individual who accepted my case and made sure the issue was settled was the Helpdesk Supervisor, Mandisa Nyaba. The most disappointing aspect is that even the accounts department could not process the refund promptly and to the right account. If Helpdesk Supervisor Mandisa Nyaba had not intervened to fix the complications created by these two departments on my account, I would still have an unresolved issue and be left waiting for my money, questioning why these departments are unable to fulfill their responsibilities and be left frustrated. These are the reasons why I will be leaving the business. The customer retention team ignores these issues, but they continue to contact me to check if I'm still satisfied with the service I'm getting. I want to express my gratitude to Helpdesk Supervisor Mandisa Nyaba for her excellent service and assistance; I hope she gets promoted to a higher role as she is an invaluable asset to SA Home Loan. I appreciate all your efforts in resolving the issues created by the other departments regarding my account. Keep Shining.

Dispute of rejected claim

Dear SA home CEO "I'm writing to express my disappointment with the rejection of my recent claim. I believe the decision was incorrect by the assessor who didn't even seem interested RI Jo Builders My garage roof is badly damaged by the rain we have been experiencing but the assessor was just rude and gave false report that it needed maintenance while it's very clear and I pay my premium very well but the service is bad I hope you'll review my case again and reconsider the decision.

Being targeted by SAHL insurance

My SAHL insurance claim is rejected as I complained about their lack of communication and claim taking almost 25 days with no communication from their side

SAHL Insure bad service

I have logged a claim on the 5 of December 2025 and today on 7 of January 2026, i haven't received any feedback, when i called I'm been told that is the delay because of the festive season and later on the story change to the contractor's delay my advice to you don't insure your home with SA Home loan

SA Home Loans Insurance

Good day. My complaint today is with SA Home Loans Insurance! I made a claim on the 13 Jan 2026, against 2 aircons not functioning. Aircon 1 in the bedroom 2 yrs old, and aircon 2 in the lounge. This is the sequel of events regarding the claim :- 14 Jan - Digiair visited. Assessed 16 Jan - Audnet visited. Assessed 20 Jan - Vukani, the claim consultant emailed saying the claim has been rejected. 20 Jan - I rep**** to Vukani, informing him that I am not happy with his decision, and i want the manager to contact me. This did not Happen , and so I decided to call Manager on ; 21 Jan - Spoke to Manager . She said she can't help and I must appeal. 21 Jan - Vukani sends me email , saying that they have suspended the rejection of the claim 26 Jan- Audnet ,Loss Adjuster and Digiair came out for an assessment again. 26 Jan - later in the afternoon, Digiair came and Came and removed the out unit. Up until today 3 Feb 2026, I have no feed back from Vukani and SA Homeloans Insurance . About aircon 1 , it's 2 yrs old and been serviced , how can that be wear and tear ? This is very frustrating. I have been with SA Homeloans for some 33 years and to think that I have made approximately 5 claims, this is very disappointing. As we are aware the heat in the last 2 weeks have been unbearable... My husband and I are both chronically ill with a cardiac condition, hence we are really struggling with this scorching weather . Will appreciate your assistance in this matter. Mrs N Naidoo.

Unhappy with SA Homeloan Insurance

I submitted a claim to Sa homeloan insurance, several companies were sent to assess the damages, and I have been following up on the progress status, because up until now there’s no proper feedback. I don’t know what going on. I’m frustrated and annoyed. There’s no sense of urgency.

Bad service provided

I lodged a claim last year on the 11th of December 2025. There were storms and heavy rains days before and water came into the house. Before Christmas I tried to call the person who is handling my case but he did not answer my calls. Just to find out how long does it take to finalise a claim after sending the people to assess the damage. First week of January tried again with no avail until I sent a complaint to their complaint centre. To my surprise they send another evaluator. After they came I was surprised to get a letter of increase two times whereas my annual increase was already done in November 2025 so it means three increases within 12 months. Today I received a call saying that future claims being prejudice. The person who called me of which I didn’t get her name was so rude and condescending. I also don’t understand why an outside toilet can affect my claim as I made a claim for only the house as it was affected. I am not happy with the service as I feel I’m being given the runaround for a month and a half.

Pathetic unsimethetic service from the WORTS house insurance company

I submitted a claim for storm damage .Cl **********. Very strong wind uprooted trees. It also damaged the flashings protecting the parapits of my house. Jerro Enterprises came to inspect the damage. On 19/01/2026 recieved an e mail rejecting my claim . The reason according to the loose bolts. Fact of tha matter Flashings were ripped of with the anchors still intact. The ones that the flashings were torn from are still in the wall!!!!!. Makesyou wonder what tipe of contractors are on their panal. Never claimed from them for 20 years

SA HOME LOAN INSURANCE IS INEFFCIENT

Extremely Poor Service and Lack of Urgency – SA Home Loans Insurance Claim I am deeply disappointed with SA Home Loans, specifically Marcel Masitry and Priscilla Malindi, for their complete lack of communication and urgency regarding an insurance claim submitted in December after severe hail damage to our home. Since the claim was logged, SA Home Loans has sent six different assessors to inspect the same damage, repeatedly taking measurements and reviewing identical issues. This caused unnecessary delays and disruption, especially over the festive season. As a result, our home was left in a terrible condition throughout December, despite being insured and repeatedly begging for the process to be handled timeously. As of 16 January 2026, we are still waiting for quotations to be finalised. Instead of the team leader holding third-party service providers accountable for excessive delays, SA Home Loans has allowed this inefficiency to continue unchecked. The lack of ownership and follow-through is unacceptable. Summary: We suffered a severe and traumatic event due to the hail damage, only to be met with indifference, poor communication, and slow, inefficient service from SA Home Loans. There is absolutely no sense of urgency, empathy, or genuine care for the client. This experience has added unnecessary stress to an already difficult situation. SA Home Loans has failed us at a time when support and efficiency were critical.

Dispute on my house claim

Dear CEO of SA Home Loans, I am writing to you directly because I am extremely disappointed and frustrated with how my recent insurance claim has been handled. After the severe thunderstorm that struck my area, my roof and ceiling were significantly damaged. Despite the obvious severity and nature of the storm, my claim was rejected on the basis of “roof not maintained.” I find this reasoning unacceptable and deeply unfair. The storm was exceptionally destructive, and no level of maintenance could have prevented the damage that occurred. Even fully maintained roofs in the neighbourhood were affected. To use “lack of maintenance” as the justification to deny my claim feels like a deliberate attempt to avoid assisting a paying client in a moment of genuine need. I have been faithfully paying insurance premiums month after month for precisely this kind of unforeseen disaster. Now, when I need the very protection I have been funding all these years, I am being told to shoulder the financial burden alone. This not only defeats the purpose of having insurance, but it also reflects poorly on the integrity and reliability of SA Home Loans’ insurance offering. I am requesting your immediate intervention and the following actions: A full and urgent reassessment of my claim, considering the severity and unavoidable nature of the storm damage. A new independent inspection, conducted by an assessor who will evaluate the damage objectively and fairly. A clear explanation of how the “maintenance” argument can be used to reject storm-related damage that could not have been prevented regardless of upkeep. This experience has seriously shaken my confidence in SA Home Loans, and I am hoping that your office will step in to correct what is clearly an unjust outcome. As a client, I expect transparency, fairness, and accountability. I trust that you will treat this matter with the seriousness it deserves and ensure that I receive the support I have been paying for over the years. I look forward to your urgent response and resolution.

Insurance claim rejected for what i don't know

hope this email finds you well. I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the service I received from SA Home Loans regarding my insurance claim. In 2023, our area experienced a earthquake that caused significant damage to our house, including cracks in the structure. Unfortunately, my insurance claim was rejected, leaving me extremely unhappy with the outcome, especially considering that other banks in the area have fixed houses affected by the same incident. I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter and provide an explanation for the rejection of my claim. It is disheartening to see other institutions supporting their customers while I am left to deal with the aftermath on my own. I believe that my case warrants reconsideration, and I hope that you can assist me in resolving this issue. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response
