No response in claims from Discovery and

<p>After having a medical emergency whilst overseas, I contacted Discovery's international SOS team. I was assured I had cover and instructed which hospital to go to. I had to pay cash to get admitted to hospital. Upon my return to SA, submitted my claim, bug only 1 invoice was paid out of 2. To make matters worse, even though I was admitted, they still deducted $150 from the one claim that was paid.</p> <p> </p> <p>i have been trying now for 5 weeks to get my 2nd invoiced reimbursed as well as my $150 deduction. Discovery have basically just ignored me and hoping I will go away.. phone messages are not returned, emails not answered. I have no idea where to turn next other than contacting my lawyer regarding this case....</p>

Hello

I have checked my emails and have not recieved anything from Discovery. I did recieve a phone call last week, where I was told that the 2nd invoice was processed, however you have still not made payment as the claim is still not in my bank account. Further to this the $150 deductible is still not resolved. I really would like this matter resolved now as it is going on to 7 weeks....

I also have no way of contacting Discovery other than via Hellopeter, as you don't allow direct calls. So unless you call me, I cannot speak to anyone....
