Old mutual protect is not guaranteed when coming to payouts

I have been paying for a life cover for my aunt for over a year and she passed on the process of claiming is estimated between 10-15 days,I submitted the claim on the 8th January 2024 and every week I get a call asking me to send them documents that I already sent to them,I am send sms to say "still at assessment ".I hope I don't have to contact them ombudsman, their turn around and communication is bad.

Now,I received an email saying they waiting for my aunts records from fh odendaal hospital,she has never been to that hospital and she was using gems medical aid,which probably means she consulted at a private doctor,I tried to rectify this info 3 weeks ago when they send me forms to complete.

I went to fh odendaal hospital and I was furnished with a letter to say my aunt was never at their hospital and doesn't appear within government database as a patient, I sent through the letter and they confirmed receipt after I called them..now they want affidavit to show she's not employed,every time a call in to check progress a new request is launched.
