Discovery Life caused my death
I've had a life insurance policy with Discovery Life for 10 years, which includes severe illness and disability coverage. Recently, I was diagnosed with epilepsy. After trying four different sets of medication, I'm still experiencing seizures, some of which occur two at a time. As a result, I am no longer allowed to drive, forcing me to walk 15.23 km to work every day.
I used to receive additional income for certain duties I performed at work, but that has stopped because of my condition. When I approached Discovery Life to submit a claim, I was told by their clerk that I am not considered ill and that my claim was declined on that basis.
I can no longer afford my medication or medical expenses due to the loss of income, and I fear I won't be able to survive much longer. I want to warn everyone: do not take out a policy with Discovery Life. You will regret it. Do not expect any help from your broker either.
