Metropolitan consultant activated a funeral cover in my name without consent

I am writing this email as a formal complaint of a policy that was activated without my knowledge and consent.

I visited the Metropolitan offices on 09/12/2025 to enquire about the policy I recently saw on my payslip. I was told this policy was activated in 2023 via telephone ( I NEED THIS RECORDING) I have a family policy for the very same people paying just over R600, why would I take out a new policy to cover the same people for a premium of R1,7k

I had relocated from Cape town to Eastern Cape for work and was not receiving payslips and during this time I was also not well. I had been receiving calls from Matropolitan consultants - where they would try to sell me cover and I would inform them I have enough policies.

I need someone to provide me with answers ASAP and refund me premiums for this policy.I am writing this email as a formal complaint of a policy that was activated without my knowledge and consent.
