No payment has been made to my claim fund

I resigned on the 23rd of August and on the 30th of August my employer submitted the claim on the 30th of August. Since the 30th , Old Mutual has been updating me on the status of my claim. I received a message on the 4th of October and it was stating that Old Mutual has received my tax directive and the claim will be authorised within 3-5 business days. Then on the 8th Old mutual contacted my former employer, they wanted to verify my banking details. I provided them with the Banking details which l had previously provided when they had to send my details to Sars. Since then , it is now the 16th of October no payment has been made. My husband laid a complaint on the 14th of October on Hellopeter. The Old Mutual sent him an email. I responded by explaining the same details. They responded and they said that they will investigate the issue and will give me feedback after 5 working days. Is there a need to investigate the issue? Why couldn't they just give a directive and facilitate the payment on the stipulated time? l was paying every month my pension contributions on time and now comes to payments of claim. They delay. Now they are ignoring my emails.

Good day Delia
Yes on public platforms that is the response and it will take again take a month to investigate the issue. The feedback l want from Old Mutual is for them to inform me about the date when my claim will be paid as it seems now they might take more days investigating and hence delaying the payment.
