No reponse or assistance to resolve an admin matter

<p>My parents moved to a care facility after my dad (88) fell and broke his hip. This resulted in a hip replacement and extended hospital care. Due to his hearing problems he is unable to hear on a mobile phone and subsequent to the surgey his speach is also impaired. They used to have a landline and with the assistance of an aplifier he was able to hear on the phone, but as a result of the fall (he went to hospital, from there to a rehabilitation centre and from there to a care facility) he does not have access to a landline. I have to update the details on thier insurance policy. As I was told on a number of ocations I am not allowed to do as I am not a contact person on the policy. My mom is a contact person - however she has alzheimers. I have send a power of attorney to ********** yesterday, however the email was not even acknowledged and when I phoned this morning I just got the same response.</p> <p>Not only do I find the lack of assistance annoying it actually borders on ********* behaviour. Outsurance is currently taking money for which I know they wont pay out a cent should anything happens as the address is wrong as well as the sum assured.</p>

Hi acombrink10,

Thank you for bringing the matter to our attention. Albert our client care advisor contacted you and updated the contact person as well as the underwriting on the policy. Sorry for the delay.
