Capitec Funeral Plan_SUCKS!!!

I've submitted a funeral claim yesterday at 8h06 and since yesterday I called several times to ensure that the correct documents is attached. The call centre agents is giving various feedback and today I was told that documents including the claim is still being reviewed/assessed. The is almost finished and we have a funeral to arrange and no Capitec does not seem to be bothered. Other institutions such as Old Mutual have already paid out family members. Nevertheless, the response I get is that they payout takes up to 48 hours, seriously!! I recommend that specially Muslims should NOT consider Capitec.

You promise between 24 and 48 hours payout. However, I'm still waiting and it's more than 48 hours.

I called to follow up, and it seems that the claim is still under assessment and it's more than 48 hours. Totally unacceptable as my Father died of natural causes in hospital, and I provided all the required documentation. Also, I want to refer to Capitec's response via email, it was just a confirmation of receiving my claim and nothing else.

I would not recommend anyone to take Capitec Funeral cover, the service is appalling and they are even oblivious to complaints raised on public platform. In my opinion they are a corporate company who take advantage of the vulnerable majority of people.
