Premiums paid, no hospital cover!

My mom was admitted to Unitas on the 29th of Nov 2025. She was there until she passed on the 21st of Dec 2025. Today I get a bill from Unitas for over R600,000.00!

Why am I paying Discovery if there are not hospital benefits on the Essential Smart Plan??? You better get back to me asap. I am furious.

You can gladly explain to the hospital that I will not be paying any of the fees 'due'.

Your Whatsapp system to chat is also pathetic and evem if you reach an agent, you do not even have time to press 1 to chat to them, then you are back in the queue.

You have debited me for 2 members, even though I semt you the death certificate for the second member in January. Why is doing your work SO difficult?

I expect a refund within today.
