Lapsed policy due to incorrect feedback

I've been with Elixi since 2018. Always paying my premiums. My husband passed away July 2021 and I informed Elixi that I am not sure if my bank account will be frozen as well so I asked if I can pay my premiums via EFT or a third party account. I was informed that this is not possible but that they will keep my policy on hold until such time my account was sorted and then I can catch up on the missed premiums and they will reinstate my policy. Today I phoned to find out how much I must pay to get this sorted just to be informed the policy was cancelled due to it not being paid for more than 3 months. I need to go for an operation this year and will need my policy in place but if they open a new policy for me it will show as a pre existing condition which will not be covered. How is this fair as I wanted to pay my premiums but could not ???????

Our customer support thoroughly investigated the query we have contacted you and has offered a solution, we can offer you a new policy and provide you with the same benefits you had previously however waiting periods will apply.  In the light of the policy remaining unpaid for more than 3 months we are unable to reinstate the same policy.

We regret that our response is unfavorable however we trust that you will find it to be in order.
