Claim

I wanted to order contact lenses - the lady at Specsavers phoned Bonitas since I said it must be paid by the medical aid. She was told that I did not have funds available so I paid the R900. I sent NUMEROUS queries to Bonitas to find out what happened to my savings since the statement showed R4000+ accumulated savings. They said I should contact PPN because they do the claims, PPN says the available funds are confirmed with the scheme (which makes total sense) SO BONITAS WHY DID I HAVE TO PAY THE CONTACT LENSES WHEN I HAVE SAVINGS AVAILABLE?

Queries: 021019QN9FK1, 260919QN0PPP, 280919QN31L7, 300919QN4NKG

Reviewer Update
I don't really see the concern as addressed but I am not going to spend any more time on this. I also do not want to claim it since I have already paid the invoice. The problem is that the person from bonitas just said that I do not have benefits for contacts, did not ask the amount, tell them to claim so that if it is rejected from the normal savings (which is a BS story in my opinion since it is my savings that have accumulated) the accumulated might be used.
