Terrible service and dishonest agents caused my medical cover to be frozen

Horrible service from Discovery after being a loyal medical aid and banking customer for years. Asked them to switch my debit order date to the 1st for this month, which they did not do resulting in the debit order failing. For a whole week I've been requesting they do the debit order again, 4 times I have been told it will definitely go off at the end of that day and I am still waiting. Because of their incompetence my cover has been frozen. After requesting that they escalate, I was again promised a callback which did not happen. How is it possible that 3 different consultants are not well trained enough to resolve a simple query. I am considering dropping all my Discovery products.

Reviewer Update
Thank you so much, the debit order finally went through last night but I need to know urgently if my cover has been reinstated because I didn't get any emails about it yet. Also I want to know why the consultants kept giving me incorrect information leading to this issue. The woman I spoke to yesterday was rude and kept accusing me of lying, she told me the debit order didn't go off on Monday because I called after 12 even after I told her I called at 10.42. I went and checked my interactions in the Health app and it also says 10.42. She also promised me a callback and ignored me. Its really not acceptable and has changed my whole view on Discovery.
