Discovery Medical aid Sucks

We pay so much for medical aid in South Africa, yet we get so many difficulties when we go to hospitals from the discovery. I have been with discovery medical aid for over 15 years and hardly used the medical aid. i moved from one plan to another plan when i got retrenched and got the new member ship number and discovery says i am not on medical aid for a year and they can not authorize me to join the hospital on pre booking. how hard is it for them to see my details on the system. i really pathetic and shame on management

Discovery suppose to email pre authorization letter to my GP and they emailed to non existing email address. i called my GP and asked him if he changed his email address and he said he did not and he could see correct email address on discovery system as well. i called up discovery this morning to rectify their issues. i pay every month and i correct their mistakes, calling them and waiting on the call for hours. i dont get help when i needed. I urge south African govt to cancel discovery license from health care industry
