Discovery refusing to pay claims.

Discovery is the master of doing everything they can to not pay claims. I had a medical procedure which i had to pay upfront for and 3 weeks later we are battling with to receive a refund for a procedure that was approved. Not only are they delaying payment, they are now saying they will pay less than 20% of the funds. Furthermore, we have double paid because they were greedy enough to take money from our savings account depsite us having made a co-payment. They have absolutely no respect for their clients when you do eventually get sick, and instead you deal with people from the call centre who make up silly excuses to not process your claims. Treating customers fairly is something you clearly don't know how to do.

The reference number ********** 671. As i metnioned, less than 20% was on the table and that has been refunded without reason or proof from your side. We are just expected to believe that is the equivalent value of what we footed upfront.

I spoke to someone, not satisfied with the response or reasoning. Upon further investigation , no pre-assessment form was communicated to us between the numerous consultants we spoke to and frankly this disconnected form of communication is as an easy way for you to duck and dive from taking responsibility for your oversight in the matter.
