Incoherent, contradictory and inefficient ! Ghra
I called Liberty Life on 16 September 2020 to advise of the death of my mother, a policyholder and confirm the process i needed to follow in order to submit a claim in respect of funeral cover as well as the beneficiary of the policy. I was advised that I cannot be informed of who the beneficiary is, instead I must to fill out a claim form, return it to Liberty Life but that only on submission of the forms would i be advised on whether the correct person had claimed. I queried that but the lady insisted so I did as advised. I followed up a few days later only to be advised that i was not the beneficiary, i queried when this would've been communicated to me had i not followed up. I then resubmitted the docs on behalf of my father on 22/9 and received an automated email that i'd be contacted "shortly".
Followed up with Liberty AGAIN on 29/9 only to be advised that my claim would be escalated to the assessor. Followed up again this morning only to be told to wait for the assessor. When i lamented the process, the guy i spoke to this morning said that the beneficiary is only disclosed when a death certificate is submitted to Liberty, a compete contradiction to what was said to me on 16/9.
I am thoroughly dissatisfied with Liberty Life's incoherent, roundabout and inefficient processes and ZERO communication / professionalism.
What i have seen with Liberty in a time of grief has convinced me that i will NEVER have a product with them.

Update: 2 claims were submitted on 22/9 yet only 1 paid out this morning (2/10). I sent an email to Naome advising that no one had contacted me and could she get somebody to contact me, she has not even acknowledged my mail.
Since Liberty only responds publicly, could you please update the gender for Badumaze (it's incorrectly recorded as female - he is a male.). Additionally, could policy documents as well as the policy stance regarding continuation. Also advise when you plan on paying the policy for WS Mkhize whose documents were also submitted to you on 22/9
