Not agreed upon deduction

I apologise in advance for my tone of my review. I am so angry right now!

I was contacted on the 27th June 2022... for an 'addition' to my insurance premium. I agreed that the FIRST PAYMENT BE DEDUCTED IN AUGUST! I received a notification that they deducted from my account TODAY (19 July)!

That money was in my bank account for a different reason! My mother is a cancer patient. She had her breast surgically removed just over a month ago. That money was in my account because I have to get her to Groote Schuur Hospital for her checkup on Thursday.

I need them to reverse that transaction and stick to what we AGREED on... Or do they expect me to WALK from Mitchell's plain to Observatory with my mother. I sent an e-mail to them, but they haven't rep****/contacted me

Dear Tania 

Thank you so much for taking my call regarding this matter 

Kindly note that a double deduction was done, due to arrears on your current policy with Platinum Life. An SMS was sent through to the number on system but I have updated your details as requested 

Please note that your upgrade is only set to commence from August and I have made the arrangements on your policy as discussed telephonically. 

I apologize for any inconvenience caused and please let me know if there is anything else I can assist with 

Kind Regards

There is no need for me to write a reply... but i need to give credit where credit is due...
Just got a call from a VERY patient Simoné.
  • I was at fault because I didn't list my alternative number as my primary contact number. Am sms was sent to the old number.
  • I feel that they could've also sent communication to both my numbers. Like I asked her:
"Why is it that if you phone men u phone to this number... but when u communicate via sms... you use my old number?"
  • Simoné patiently guided me on how to get the reversal done promptly. And also listed the current phone number as my primary number.

Thank you Simone
