Closure of the existing policy

On the 27/11/2023 at 12:33pm I called Metropolitan Client Relations an I spoke to someone by the name of Lorraine Maphanga on ***, and I mentioned to her that I would like to close my Metropolitan policy as I am no longer being able to pay it every month, and then I asked her what is the procedure she said that we can close it telephonically , Once said that she asked me security question on how is my marital contract, and I said I am married in COP and then she said that because I am married in COP, my husband has to give permission for closure of this a policy. And to my surprised I asked her why should I get a permission from my husband because there's nowhere my husband signed or there's no agreement that we both signed to say that if I wanna close the policy I should inform him first. And I said to her that I am the one who opened the account as well as completion of the form was done without my husband's signature however I am the one who was debited from bank account and not my husband's account. And I am not happy as I would like to close this policy and I even explained to her that it has tough year for me this 2023 so I will reopen it again January 2024. She did not even feel any remorse as she wanted me to get permission from my spouse before closure , which doesn't make sense for me at all.
