Discovery Life Is Preventing Me From Joining Vitality

Discovery life has been giving me a run around for TWO WEEKS!! All i want is to add my wife as a dependent on my existing life policy so i can take up vitality family plan. Al the agents i spoke to told me there's an error on my profile which is preventing them from adding my wife on my policy and according to the last agent i spoke to, she told me im the only dicovery life policy holder who is affected by this "error". I was told this would be escalated to IT and that it will take 3 business days, its been over 10 business days now and none of the agents have contacted me though they promised to call me back.

A run around just to add a dependent on a policy and join vitality?? This is absolutely dissapointing. If discovery is failing to do such a simple thing, whats going to happen when my beneficiary put a claim on this policy. This bad customer service is worse than govement officials. My other issue is that discovery added a financial advisor on my policy called Craig Naidoo, i can never get hold of this Craig person, he does not reapond to my emails either, i would like to remove him as a FA on my policy, he has never contacted me ever since i took the policy, what kind of FA is this that does not service their client but they get commision everytime i pay my premium, pathetic!!

Thank you so much, I spoke with Nazreen and she resolved my issue, she was very professional and friendly; I appreciate your swift response.

There's one thing that's outstanding now and that is removing Craig Naidoo as a financial advisor on my policy, Craig is getting commission for free and i think that is ********* from his part.

I don't want to nominate any FA on my policy, so please kindly remove Craig and advise if by law i'm allowed not to have a financial advisor on the policy, I think its ******* for Craig to get 3% of my premium while he is not servicing me.

Its almost a month now waiting for discovery to add my wife on my policy. They have been sending me emails to tell me they are still busy with the process. This is the worst service i have ever recieved, i cant place why they have treated me this way.
