PLATINUM LIFE - VERY BAD CLIENT SERVICES

I used to have a policy with Platinum Life and I had no other option but to cancel this policy due to financial difficulties. Platinum Life said they will stop the payments but keep it on record. Today a lady phoned me from Platinum. I told her that we are still not financially able to afford any extra monthly payments. The lady from Platinum Life kept on and on about this policy and I only have to pay end of January 2020. When I told her again, no we cannot afford even a lower premium she got upset and said she cannot hear me clearly the line is bad. Platinum Life telephone consultants are nice until you tell them you cannot afford a policy then they become more adamant and rude and no matter how you explain that you cannot afford a policy, they just don't care and understand!!

Dear Annelize

I am so sorry to hear about the experience you had regarding the reactivation of your policy 

The matter is being investigated and I will give you a call with feedback as soon as possible 

Please note that our policies are optional and you should never feel pressured to take anything out. 

You are more than welcome to contact me on *** if there is anything I can assist with in the mean time. 

Kind Regards

Dear Simone
Thank you for responding.
I know your policies are optional. All policies are, thus when your client service lady became adamant i wondered what is important to her, her fee on getting a client to reinstate or to have compassion for someone. If i was in a financial situation to afford this policy i would have. But i know what we are financially capable off and when to draw a line. I know this is an important policy but in the meantime, we must survive as a family and other things takes priority.
Regards
Annelize
