Claim Repayment

Good day,<br> <br> I am very disappointed in the service from Discovery. My claims are generally paid efficiently and now suddenly that changes.<br> <br> My first claim that is meant to be paid back to me was not done as advised.<br> <br> The claim was meant to be paid out to me on the 05/03/2016. I had updated my bank details prior to the payment and received nothing yet. I called the call centre and the consultant advised me that there was a problem with the payment it was proccessed incorrect. I.E processed as a cheque payment instead of EFT.<br> <br> An inquiry was opened to rectify this and was advised it will take up to 72 hrs for feedback. I cannot wait that long for someone else's mistake when the payment should have been done as an EFT in the first place.<br> <br> ***<br> <br> Regards<br> Miss F Bhabha

Hello F.Bhabha,

Thank you for your comment.

Your initial application form included no claims reimbur*****t banking details, therefore your reimbur*****t method defaulted to cheque payments. When you updated your bank details, the payment method was not updated with this, therefore we were unable to make an EFT payment. We have now updated your payment method, and this should not occur in future. We have also confirmed that you have been contacted and your concerns addressed.

Regards
Norman
