Bamboozled

I resigned effective 31 December 2024. I submitted my pension fund withdrawal thereafter. Old Mutual Superfund says there's a dispute of the dates from my app and the date the company date. I called HR and they confirmed as the same date as me. Old Mutual Superfund are giving me the run around. I expect my pension fund in 2 days or I'll escalate this.

I called them back and was advised this matter is being escalated. Why is something so simple so long to resolve? I need my money desperately. Can someone please assist me?

I'm being given the runaround. I just called and was told to resubmit my claim. I called my company and they did everything correctly. It's old Mutual Superfund that's highly confused. I get different feedback from different consultants. Why am I given red tape to access my own funds? This is pathetic service. Nobody is calling me. I have to keep call them. Somebody please help me

Yes, I received feedback yesterday, but it contradicts the contents of the mail. This is going on for far too long.
