Non-Compliance

<p>On July 5th I submitted proof of payment to Discovery as I have cancelled my Debit Order on the account and requested them to appropriatte and allocate the payment as per the previous month.</p> <p>Exactly the same email format with proof of payment etc. On Friday 07 July I received a notiifcation saying that my benefits have been suspended on both Vitality and Medical Aid???</p> <p>This is after I have sent them in total of 8 emails confirming payment, with the attached proof of payments, and received a system generated responce from them. On receipt of the email (Suspension) i rep****, and attached again the paper trail and requested immidiatte action and allocation.</p> <p>To date, nothing was done nor did anyone respond and / or reply to the emails sent.</p> <p>This is poor customer service for such a huge organisation, and it seems that the service level has dropped significantly!!</p>

Thank you for the feedback and the call.

Im very dissapointed in the fact that I had no medical cover for almost 6 days as ANYTHING could have happened where I ended up in Hospital and would have been refused adimission due to incompetence from such a huge entity as Discovery Health. You are certainly not the cheapest of medical aids, and promote yourselves by the Vitalities, and the Parkruns, yet we as members need re-assurance that MEDICAL COVER is there when we need it. Not your fancy little browny points, as that is a waist when you end up in hospital!!!
