Refund- gone astray
I retired in Dec2014. In December before I retired I notified discovery to cancel my membership and to refund any funds owing to me to my bank account i gave them my bank details. They responded saying that the refund will be made with in 5 months. So in May 2015 I contacted them to find out if the refund was made. Well thatha when my troubles started with Discovery. To cut a long story short , they refunded a bank account that was closed. I was ****ed off, who refunds an account without confirming bank details ? and what happened to the new bank details that I gave them in December 2014? So after many many emails phone calls ( that I made to their office) I am still waiting for my refund. The phone calls have costed over R800. One of the agents in May told me that they will do a recall of the funds and asked me to fill in the bank details change forms again. I did this and sent them the forms several times.Today again my call to them costed R65. and I still dont have my money. The service is most annoying and I am so disappointed and angry. I have asked for a manager to call me several time to no avail. Is this going to be resolved or am I going to lose my funds due to bad service
Thank you for your comment.
I investigated your query and confirmed we rely on members to ensure that all their details are updated and that we are notified of any changes to banking details, contact details or addresses. We did not receive any request to update your claims banking detail in December 2014 on record. I have sent you an email requesting further information. I confirmed we are unable to recall the funds as it is outside the 30 day period of when the payment made.
I do understand this is not the outcome you had hoped for however I do await the proof of submission so I may assist you further with your query.
