EDGARS CLUB POLICIES

<p>In January 2016 I took out funeral insurance in response to a marketing call from the financial services department of Edgars. At the time I was 58 and my husband 65. After not having received the documents after 30 days, I called and requested them, each month until the they arrived in April. His date of birth was incorrectly stated and I requested they amend this. I was informed he was not covered as he was 66 and the cut off date age was 65. I pointed out to them that in January he was 65 - he turned 66 in April. It has taken a year of calls, some lasting for 30 - 40 minutes behilst being put on hold and still there is no end to this. Each time a different person takes the call, I go through the whole explanation and receive the same answer - he is 66 and the system does not allow them to change that. I have in the meantime being charged and am pying the full premium. Also, each time I requested a copy of the call recording and each time get told it will be requested from the "third party". Guess what - no recording yet either. This lack of service from the so called servce centre is totally shocking and infuriating - I have reached the end of my patience with this. </p>

Thank you for your response. However, I do not want to cancel the policy as it has already been in force for a year, which is the waiting period. However, I do want the correct details noted on the policy.
