Savings refund not paid

I changed my medical aid option last year in November 2023 and have a savings refund due of R12200. I was told the usual story that it will take 4 months to process. In January 2024 I did a follow and was told to submit proof of bank account as well as filling out a savings refund form. To my surprise no payment was issued in April and I did another follow-up in May and was told to submit the same forms of which I did. On the 20th of May I received an email with a reference confirming that my payment will take 5-7 working days but now on the 4th of June still no payment. I wrote another follow-up email which was not responded to on the 3rd of June and now seeing the reviews on Hellopeter.com I see that Bonitas is famous for not paying savings refund as my complaint is not the first. I will be considering legal advice because I've been with Bonitas for years to be treated in such a way when I'm supposed to receive what's due to me

I just received a generic reply with a response that I must wait another 5-7 working days and I refuse to wait that long because I know it will be the same response again. Your call center is useless and no one from Bonitas bothered to call me. Please process my refund immediately, I've been waiting from the 20th of May
