Medihelp terrible medical aid

It has been over a month that a refund was supposed to be made. On 10/09 proof of payment was sent to the claims department. I followed up with them 2 weeks later only to be told that the payment will be done on the next pay run, which would be 30/09. On 1/10 I contacted medihelp amd asked why did they pay the docter when I had already paid them and the refund was supposed to come to me. Only to be told that there was no proof of payment submitted with the email sent to them. I was then told that I can phone the practice and they can pay it back to me. I was then told by the practice that the medical aid will reverse the amount and refund me. When I phoned again the medical aid said the next pay run will be tje 9th and it will be refunded to me then. It is now the 15th and still no payment has been made to me. I have to keep running after medihelp for a refund, but let me be one day late with payment they quick to phone me or suspend my medical aid. What nonsense is this. I am paying for a service and are entitled to recieve good service, not the **** I get now. There is more co payments than anything else that I have to pay, the cover is little to no cover for myself and my children. Depression is not a CHRONIC medical problem so they will not cover my daughters meds and I have to do their job because they too *********** to do it them selves. This is ridiculous. Medihelp is a terrible medical aid. The call cemtre is completely unhelpful and the finance department is ridiculous. I would suggest anyone that wants to go on medihelp think again. I intend on canceling my medical aid as I have recieved no help, not assistance and just terrible service.

To date no one has contacted me. It has now been well over a month that I am waiting for a refund. This is complete nonsense but you want my premium paid at the end of the month. Medihelp are sharks.

It is terrible that I habe to resort to loading a complaint on Hello peter in order to get an answer. It is now 23/10 and still no payment gas been made. This is the mail that was recieved. Just by the way, no messages were sent to me and no one has requested confirmation of my banking details. Over and above that my banking details gave never changed. "Dear Ms Strong Thank you for your email. Kindly be advised that details have been reported on your claims statement dated 18 October 2024 and the SMS confirmation sent to your cellphone number *** confirms payment will be made. The scheme has payment run dates three times a month. On the 10th, 20th and on the last work day of the month. After the payment run, it takes between five to seven work days for the money to reflect in the bank account. You are kindly requested to confirm your banking details and confirm whether the banking details we have available on our system is for both deposits and withdrawals. The current banking details are only for deposits and not withdrawals. Kind regards"
