Bad service ever -: 24 hours payout claim taking 3 months woooow

I have been trying to make a funeral claim since July . I did it online , via WhatsApp and also via email , I haven’t received any feedback , yesterday i laid a complain and still no response. What is wrong with metropolitan?? This is really bad service , I think I am going to have to take it with ombudsman as my policy is about to lapse because I stopped paying premiums as there is no need because you couldn’t help at time of need after paying premiums R728 every month for almost four years. You guys are ******** really. I am going to take it up and expose everything.

I am tired of hearing “One of our Client Care Assessors will investigate the matter and revert back to you as soon as possible”
Then days, months goes by without hearing from anyone from your side , this is really *********** of you guys , I had to take a loan to bury my mom whilst I had a policy with you guys and still today the policy have not paid out and my loan is accumulating interest. Really ****y service I must say , I would never recommend metropolitan to anyone . I am going to spread the word on all platforms,: Twitter , Facebook etc

Two hours later still no feedback, that’s metropolitan for you . Or should I wait three more months? Well am done and tired of this sh*t, i regret opening a funeral cover with you guys . My girlfriends claim with FNB via online/telephonic took less than 24 hours to payout. You guys are claiming the same stand that you can’t maintain
