*********** staff - Membership

<p>Recently advised BestMed that due to circumstances we were changing our membership from Full Medical Aid, down to a Hospital Plan. They were advised in writing on about 6 occasions. - as you know , you cannot SPEAK to a living person at Bestmed !!!!!</p> <p>We also did a DIRECT DEPOSIT for the Hospital Plan membership at the beginning of the Month. I now receive an SMS saying my membership has been suspended, - the flippin idiots STILL tried to process my Debit Order for the Full Medical cover !!!!</p> <p>We are now 6 days up the road and STILL no communication. If nothing is done today - I WILL terminate my Membership </p>

Reviewer Update

This is ABSOLUTE nonsence.

How is THIS latest response from Bestmed !!!!

I am now advised by Bestmed that I CANNOT change my cover now to a Hospital Plan, as my wife was recently in Hospital with Pneumonia !!!!

SHE WAS BOOKED IN BY A SPECIALIST PHYSICIAN !!!

\

Apparently I am now FORCED to stay with a FULL MEDICAL until the end of this year, before I can change my policy ?? How does this actually work ??

Bestmed, you are extoring from the public !

You can now go and fly a kite - I will send my cancellation through and I request a refund of the payment done for February.

I will rather source another Medical Aid . Goodbye !
