Profmed not so professional

On 6 August I requested proof of my contributions to Profmed as I require these for SARS. Numerous emails sent and resent, phone calls made and so far all I have had is automated responses. It floors me that the monthly contributions to medical schemes is one of our costliest monthly expenses and yet their client assistance is virtually non existent, they seem unable to provide a response to a very basic query. Interesting that I had to email a number of other organisations with the same query and received the assistance I needed within the hour. To date we have barely needed Profmed's medical services and I am relieved as I imagine they just don't have the capacity to provide assistance on any level. A very sleepy organisation that seems to function on ineptitude, and with the competition that is out there with so many medical schemes to choose from these days you would imagine they would make every effort to be more efficient and customer friendly

Dear Ms Ackerman,

Thank you for taking the time to write this, and we are sorry for the experience you have had. You requested your tax certificate on 6 August. A month of automated responses and unanswered calls on a routine request is not the standard we hold ourselves to.

I have escalated this to our client services manager and someone will be in touch with you.

Kind regards,
The Profmed Team.
