Do not want to pay out valid claims

<p>I needed to put in a claim for own and similar occupation disability on my Absa life@ ease policy. My policy states sum insured for R500 000. I have been diagnosed with breast cancer and started my chemotherapy in January 2017.This treatment/s leaves you physically impaired temporarily and unable to work at my full potential. I called Absa life call centre and was told I cannot claim. Then I called ABSA branch to speak with Dominique Laurence on 1 February 2017 but he was busy with a client so I followed up with an email on the same day. I got no response. Today I have sent him a letter from my oncologist confirming my state of health and that I will be unable to work while on treatment. Why is it always difficult to claim but easier to sign you up and take your money! I am very ill and have no source of income to sustain myself and my boys</p>
