We call them 'the offenders' - Umhlanga restaurant owner on insurance giants
Loading player...
A deeply frustrated Duncan Heafield, owner of Bellezar Restaurant in Umhlanga, speaks to BizNews founder, Alec Hogg, about the bizarre state of affairs the hospitality industry has found itself in since the lockdown was imposed in March. Heafield has submitted claims against Santam, Old Mutual, Hollard and Guardrisk - referred to as 'the offenders'. All of these claims have been repudiated by 'the offenders' who are sticking to their guns that the lockdown was not caused by Covid-19, but rather that it was caused by the government. Having paid monthly premiums for business interruption insurance in excess of R8,500, Heafield cautions anyone considering taking up insurance to understand their policies very clearly and to ask the 'what if' questions. - Nadya Swart Learn more about your ad choices.
