Shocking service

My mother passed away on 17 March and on 18 March I sent an email quering a policy ***, as I found a document with this number in her file. I got a response on 23 March. My query has not been answered. I was given a quote by her undertakers which expired yesterday. From today a higher ate applies. I called twice yesterday and only on the second call did I get clear information. The first person said (1) the delay was probably because that section had lots of deaths to deal with and that (2) I needed to complete a form - sent an email with no form attached. Second agent said that in the case of natural causes, no form is applicable. It is sad and shocking to have to deal with such ridiculous delays when dealing with the death of a loved on. I've sent in the requisite information and hopefully her policy will pay out. She was cremated this morning.
