Absolutely horrific uncalled for

I am writing this review after applying for membership on yourvBoncap income based plan. Fiestly i am flabergasted and shocked that you impose a 12 Month specific condition waiting period on a PMB for COPD which i have not been in hospital for or treaded with any illment for the past 2 years only receiving Chronic Medication each month. Secondly, member contributions of R 9382.50 per month and my salary is only R 8862 per month ? My spouse is unemployed, and dependant on me, which i have sent all the relevant documents requested, Payslips, bank statements, employer retrenchment letters etc... this is totally rediculous and uncalled for.
