medical aid

I am so fed up with discovery health. I, like thousands of others, have pay-as-you go-phones. Trying to speak to somebody at Discovery Health is a very time-consuming effort, especially when you finally get through to the correct person, there is just noise and people chatting in the background. I need hospital authorisation and I have no funds left on my phone. You can't even email them with a query or authorisation. My other recent query about gap cover for Keycare Core was a unhelpful 'speak to your broker'. I just wanted to know why, why, does discovery not offer this option for keycare plans. They just say they don't offer it, they will not say why! Grrrrrrr to Discovery health!

Reviewer Update
I can't believe it, I went on the chatbot and the agent was very helpful. He asked if he could put me through to authorisations dept., I said I wish they would call me back. The agent then asked if I would like to email them. I said yes indeed. So, I emailed them and got a reply to say "this email channel is no longer in use" Please call ***which is what I have been trying to do all morning. I am really p*ssed off now.
