Assupol being cruel what they say on TV is not what they present

I have a policy with Assupol and now amazingly they tell me their going to increase their policy with 20% and if I dont want to they will decrease my policy with 17% if I am not increasing my premium as they want. I feel is not fair to me as I have been a loyal client to them without any claims. They are going to implement where I like it or not. my policy for cash back is meturing in 2026 but if they do this and i do not want thier increase is going to kill my benefit. I wanted to continue with my payment but if they drop everything by 17% I will be loosing a lot. I tried to call them but still they say what the letter say and i cannot afford the new premium.

Why if I do not want to incrase you still decrease my policy to 17% but still i will be paying +- R900. 17% is a lot and even you 20% is way too much.

I was not informed of the huge increase of 20% because policies they range to 5% or 10%. That is what i thought. I CAN NOT PAY + R1000 or more I dont have the money
