No care whatsoever

Avbob has always been one of the companies I respected based on history. However it is going down fast. Sad because there is so much competition out there. If there is no value for your customers then what? I have an old funeral policy . I have recently app**** for a loan on the value available seeing that the interest rates are reasonable and I did not need a lot. They say they will get back to you within 5 to 7 days. I submitted my forms manually at the Edenvale office, that process alone is quite cumbersome when most entities have electronic systems. today its day 11 with 2 follow up phone calls which have no direction whatsoever on what is going on. You should not venture into new avenues if you are not prepared for them. This is disrespectful and I do not do business that take me for granted. When one starts a process, the cue is a need. Time is precious, we are all too busy to be playing games. When I submitted at reception I was told they were going to give the form to the Manager. Now when I call whoever responds is pointing to the receptionist.

Reviewer Update
26 March 2024. 18 days since the 1st day of this process and still nothing. Instead I recieved a call Friday the 22nd blaming me for submitting an ID copy that was not certified and yet in your website it says, bring a copy with the ID and an Avbob official will certify as an alternative to a commissioner of aoths. I was then told that the application had miraculously been submitted to Head Office. I will not back down, this is appalling service to anyone, worse when one has been a member for almost 20yrs trusting you with the most vulnerable part of our lives. Someone in your value chain just does not care. At this rate u will not exist as a company in 10yrs, which is then safe to break ties while one is still alive.
