Charged despite canceling policy

Outsurance increased my premium to R1600 for a Celerio. I called them to cancel the policy on the 21st of August, they decided to reduce it to R1228 and said I could reduce it further by using smart drive. They then sent the new policy, on the 23rd I tried calling them to cancel but unfortunately it was after 13:00 and so couldn't get hold of them. I sent an email on that same day (respond to the email they sent) asking for the policy to be canceled. On the 24th, they sent me a message saying I have not been using smart drive. I ignored the message because I had already requested them to cancel my policy. I just received a notification that they debited my account despite me requesting them to cancel.

Good day Phyllis,

After responding privately to you, we escalated the matter to our client services manager, Michael.

Michael has been unsuccessful in his attempts to reach you. He has subsequently sent you an email. Please note, we never received a cancellation request. The last interaction you had with us, you agreed to keep your policy active. Your policy has since been cancelled and the refund processed. 

We do apologise for the inconvenience caused. 

Regards,
The OUTsurance Team
