Cancellation of Medical Aid

I can bever get to speak to a consultant and this useless medical aid company.Everything is directed via voice prompt and I just keep getting cut off.This is a tactic that this BS company is Using.I am really in financial difficulty now and my salary has been drastically decreased due to Short time and Pandemic.Last months debit order bounced and i received a message that my medical has been stopped.I am experiencing the same issue this month where I need to speak to someone that can advize me or I can temporarily put my account on hold for a few months but i just cant get hold of anyone at Discovery and this month they double debited me for R6000 yet they cancelled my medical aid last mont.This is really bull**** and ********** transactions by the medical aid group.Can anyone help me get in touch with someone at discovery medical aid so that I can cancel my Account.This is really pathetic service.

Reviewer Update
This is really an urgent matter regarding my health Plan.I was told by the discovery representative that They willing to change my plan to a cheaper hospital plan instead of the full comprehensive plan. I am waiting now for a response before the next debit order so that my new plan can be deducted at an affordable rate.My concern is that what discovery is doing is that when your debit order bounces you receive an sms mentioning that your cover has been stopped and no cover will be authorized or pay by them. They then double debit you and say you must back pay as it was temporary.So I asked the question if I got sick and went to hospital I would not be covered but 30 days later you bill me for that specific month that bounced.It doesn't make sense to me.Then I get told that the supervisor will decide whether to waive that amount if I take a cheaper plan so that is what I am doing.I feel as though they are ambush marketing me here..You not suppose to be debiting me in the first place.I really dont know wat to do because i feel that discovery is exploiting me.Im not sure if I should speak to my lawyers and let them deal with matter as well as other social media outlets.
