Horrible service from Old mutual as they know once you are deceased you wont be able to fight for yourself

Its been over 1 year since i have put in a claim for my late daughter policy at old mutual, I have been doing multiple followups calling head office and going to their branches but i am getting zero help. People should stop using old mutual imagine paying a policy and once you have passed on your loved one struggle to get your payment. The service from this company is horrible i am not the first to complain there is a lots of people complaining but to them is business as usual.

Its very sad how they treat people and also not replying to emails which i kept as proof. I have already been asked 5 times to fillin same claim documents this is horrible because unfortunately my late child wont be able to fight for herself. As a mother this is very painful for me, i need to take care of my grandchildren as my daughter trusted me to be a beneficiary and look after her children unfortunately it seems like my grand children will not get the benefit of what their mother worjed hards for and left for them because of old mutual she trusted the wrong company. I currently use my grant to take care of the kids.

I guess even this review they will ignore as they ignore everything. Horrible service

I have not recieved an email from them Old mutual this is totally unacceptable and i am tired because you are failing clients and now this query is refered to another department that will take another year. i dont think people should invest their money in your business as you abuse beneficiaries once people die. You are not relaible at all the kids are suffering while their mother worked hard to ensure they will be taken care of financially. This is really sad

Empty promise that they will call which they never did your service is really bad. People should know once they are gone from this earth the beloved ones will suffer.

The email i responded to was from your complains department telling me to directly contact a specific department in old mutual. Can you get relevent people to call or are you going to continue making me a fool saying somone will call and no one does? This maybe needs to be escalated to insurance Ombudsman as it looks like clearely you not will to help and i will also share this on other platforms so that the world can know how clients a badly treated and you just respond for the sake of respknding not actioning complaints.
