******** Deduction.

I have been offered a new product and I requested that the agent email me the details on the new cover. She advised that once I receive my free gift I can look at all the T&C and have 30 days to advise if I would like to cancel.

The morning I received my free gift, I got a notification from my bank to say the debit order for Platinum Life has gone off. This was at the increased rate.

Please check the voice recording of the call that was made to me where I stated that the Postal and courier services are below standard. The agent assured me that I have 30 days from the date I sign the waybill for receiving the free gift.

I phoned in the same day and the agent advised that somebody will contact me back.

If a agent phoned me, I would not write this review.

By canceling my policy I will loose all my money that I have paid every month. I can only assume that this is one way Platinum Life is making extra money.

Please confirm if the following details are correct to lodge a formal complaint.

 Dear Mr Van Niekerk,  Thank you so much for taking my call.  I would like to apologize regarding the late delivery of your upgrade policy documentation and that you did not have your legal 30 day review period to go through the proposed change. This matter will be addressed with our logistics department accordingly.  I have removed the benefit with immediate effect and the difference will be refunded into your account. Kindly note that a consultant did try to contact you on the 7th regarding this matter, but was unfortunately unable to reach you. I have emailed the policy information to you. Please do not hesitate to contact me on *** if there is anything I can assist with.  If you have any further queries please feel free to contact us.  Kind regards,  Simoné Venter Client Relationship Specialist & Client Care Supervisor
