FUNERAL POLICY PAYMENT - 2 WEEKS AND STILL WAITING

My aunt passed away 28 March - I contacted Metropolitan and was told that we would only be able to claim once we received the Death Certificate.

When I received the Death Certificate on 14 April I submitted the documentation for the first time. I sent the same documentation on 21 April, to which they responded that they can't trace the policy!!!!

Tuesday 26 April I finally get a response from a consultant who AGAIN asks me to send the documents as nothing had as yet been registered. They would then follow-up.

This morning Friday 29 April I contacted the call centre AGAIN only to be advised that they are still processing the request and will inform me by sms when it is processed.

TWO WEEKS, 3 emails and 3 calls later and THIS is their response.

NEVER WILL I RECOMMEND METROPOLITAN TO ANYONE - your service SUCKS!!!!
