Hollard Specialist Life. R99 ****?

I have had R99 debited from my bank acc for years. I have now traced it to Hollard Life Specialist Insurance. I contacted them by email on Jan 26th 2023 to ask them what it is I am charged for. They wrote back and said they cannot trace it. I gave them more info. They then said they had tried to call me but couldnt get through and were therefore 'happy to note the issue was resolved'. It isn't. I had already told them I am out of the country working away from SA and that they would need to call me on my local number, ir whatspp me or email me (I understand they want to ask security questions) Nothing has happened. It is 2 weeks. This is not good service. I suspect this is the R99 ****. Surely Hollard must be thinking it could be perceived to be such. You would think they would rush to resolve the issue and maintain confidence. But no. I'm still waiting. And so here I am resorting to Hello Peter. Next stop social media and ombudsman.

I have read through your responses to all the Hello Peter complaints and what you have sent to me is a copy and paste, the same as every other response. Now you are talking about 5, yes 5 working days. That will be more than 3 weeks after I initially contacted you! This is really poor. All you need to do is call me via Whatsapp or internationally call me. I told you this already so it should not take 5 days for you to do so. All you have done is convince yourself that it is ok to make me wait another 5 days. its pathetic. Pick up the phone and whatsapp call me. I will be available at 4pm today for a whatsapp call. Thats 4pm SA time. Don't disappoint me. I will publicise your ineptitude if need be and take you to the ombudsman. Is this a R99 **** or not. It looks like it. Convince me otherwise. I am not dropping this.

Despite several private messages assuring me that the case is being looked into, nothing has happened since I originally posted on Hello Peter. I was told that it would take 5 working days from 10th Feb but that they would try expedite. Well today is 6 days and I have heard NOTHING . If you look at other posts about Hollard, this is not new. I am becoming more convinced that Hollard are part of the R99 ****. They are just delaying and delaying.
