bad service

I wish next year could come so that we can close this chapter with Sanlam. Your needs and expectations are not as they portray. When we request funds it's not because we are using it for unnecessarily things, and besides what we use it for has nothing to do with Sanlam. It's not like we are making a loan on the funds requested. We requested twice this year for funds - Aug and Nov, both the times we had to follow up all the time. Unexpected circumstance accrued that we were not prepared for, Legacy fund is giving us the run around. We requested an amount to be released for purchase of laptop and a tv for my baby sister. If they only went thru the history and taken time they would understand why this is important. Her television broke after 15years and it was time for upgrade, she needs a laptop for school which we failed to indicate in the previous request as we were not aware of this. I am her sister and been supporting her after my father passed on -R2000.00 she gets monthly doesn't cover her food, her transport, her doctors, and so on that why we are requesting that the laptop and tv gets approved so we can move on from here. My mother is stressed out as always when dealing with this ,

Thank you.
I received a email. So basically, you will need to fight for your own money? This is totally pathetic. I honestly cannot wait until we can remove the funds and place it into another institution that can understand the needs and day to day life expenses and especially how important it is to try and ensure that your teenager has everything, they need in the house to ensure they are not running around on the street. I was told a 50inch tv is a luxury? How can it be? do we not purchase goods so that we don't have to replace over a year again? Motivate why you need to buy things that is your own money? No man , come on, I hope this is the last time im coming here and complain about Sanlam. Just do what we request and we can all move on man.

Sanlam- I get a email yesterday telling me that the claim is with the supervisor and payment will be processed the 1st December. I them emailed and they not in office. The agent new that they wont be there today hence this actions. If tomorrow morning I wake, and the money is not in them it shows me that everyone was to busy with parties and thumb sucked this info to keep us happy.

Really poor service, i will never recommend you guys to anyone. ever
