BANKMED'S ********** SERVICE!!!!!

On the 11th of August 2018 I called Bankmed to find out which Hospital I can use for a sonar scan that I just received a referral for. They agent gave a bunch of Hospitals and when I got to the Pretoria east Hospital I was given they wouldn't help me as they Emergency room Doctors are separate from the Hospital and not contracted with Bankmed so I left because I could not risk not having this treatment covered. I booked an appointment with a normal gynae and my claim was rejected because I do not have radiology benefit. But the agent never told me that so I called Bankmed to complain that this was not communicated. After 3 days I am informed because I asked for a Hospital where the sonar would be covered and not whether I had benefit for the sonar they will not cover it. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I asked for a complaint to be logged. I spoke to Rufqa. Shocking complaint resolution s****s. But you welcome to listen to that call ( 12:45 05/09/18) I pay R4400 for this plan and you are suppose to add value to my life not leave me financially cripple!!

Wow! a 1 month investigation! And not a SINGLE word from Bankmed. This is Absolute Stellar service hey. So I am literally just being ignored. I am going to do EVERYTHING in my power to get off Bankmed. Moving my kids shouldn't be to hard they can easily go on my moms medical aid and at the soonest time my husband gets a new job hopefully out of the bank he and I are gone. He pays R2100 I pay R4400 so between my spouse and myself we are pay Bankmed around R73000.00 a year but that's obviously peanuts to you guys right... So I am sitting with a claim of R1000 because I said "which hospitals are on your network for a Sonar?" instead of "Do I have benefit for a Sonar?" one single word and bankmed gets of Scot free from your clearly lackluster service. I will pay but and as god is my witness I will make it my life's mission to tell every Soul about this Pathetic service and to deter anyone and everyone to Steer clear from Bankmed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
