Still waiting on feedback on *****ing money out of my account without my permission
<p>I am writing this letter as a full feedback of what has happened and all my concerns of the company and company policies.</p> <p>When I first started querying about taking out a policy with Essential Medical it was great. It was great service from all whom helped. I was excited as finally a company that knows what and how to do their job.</p> <p>Both Sam (02) and I (01) have been to the doctor and 2 accounts were not paid which I queried and was sorted out quickly. Great service again.</p> <p>Then I phoned to state I would like to find out about what is covered which I also received great service. At the same time I upgraded as I noticed on your web page that the services were changing but I had to get hold of the company as I was never sent an email to state the plans were upgrading.</p> <p>The upgrade was sorted and an ELECTRONIC DECLARATION was sent and I signed it.</p> <p>I was aware of all the questions stated in it,as I had already gone through it 6 months prier. I was led to believe it was the same as before.</p> <p>I then phoned asking about dental treatment, which was also a great service until I was told I had to wait for another 6 months even though I had already waited.</p> <p>I then was told don't worry about the waiting period and I can go ahead. I then sent Brian an email stating that I would like it in writing and I also attached a quote.</p> <p>I am still waiting on a return email for the auth.</p> <p>I was then informed that I was actually suppose to pay a once off fee of R150 for a welcome pack.... Really??? Why do I need a welcome pack and why am I punished because I'm upgrading??? And a once off fee means exactly what it states so why do i have to pay it again.</p> <p>I was then told I signed in the ELECTRONIC DECLARATION that I would... that means I will also have to start all the waiting periods as well because it also states that in the ELECTRONIC DECLARATION. Which I was informed to me I do not have to. Only waiting periods I will have is ICU and funeral policy, which I agreed to.</p> <p>The service and I am now receiving is totally unacceptable as the correct information was not given to me and replies to emails from Brain is not happening. </p> <p>Please would you sort out that all information is given to the client that an extra "once off fee" will apply if policy is changed at all. Even though I find it very unfair seeing it's not a new client and the client has already paid all the "once of fees". A "once of fee" means as it states and not every time you change your policy.</p> <p>Please would you reply stating what is happening to my 2nd "once off fee" and an Authorization letter for the dentist.</p>

The problems were sort of sorted out and still in prosses of being sorted as more problems accored.
And once again more problems which has still not be solved as promised.
Payments which was suppose to be paid last year aug is still not paid and the promises from people that it will be paid in Jan 2017 is still not paid.
I am now being threatened with lawers because the promises in a contract signed by Essential and myself have not been upholded by Essential. If this account is not paid by the end of this month I will be taking you to court as this is not the only part of the contract you have broken.
I am not sure why I have to keep running after you guys like you are my children... if I wanted children I would have had some.
