Bad service

Sometime in early September a medical reported was submitted for assessment and for claims. Affinity outright claims that the condition is pre-existing and will not acknowledge the claim. A dispute was lodged on 15 September and to date no response was received. Not even an acknowledgement of the complaint. When I called to follow up I was told feedback will be given, the consultants could not even provide me with a turn-around time. Almost two weeks has passed and still nothing. I am disgusted and horrified at the appalling service I have received. I intend to cancel all dealings with Affinity if this is a taste of the service I can expect to receive. One will swear that they are doing you a favour by doing business with you. Companies like is are a dime and dollar and I really don't need to accept this disgusting service from you.
