Retirement Request - no action, silence. Back to the Ice Age

After sending in forms for a retirement (annuitisation) of a retirement annuity Sanlam didn't acknowledge email nor gave feedback but proceeded to call my client asking him to go to a branch in Kroonstad to get someone to help him. Are you living in the Ice Age? These type of requests are done via email by all the large insurers and investment houses. First email 31st of July. 2nd email 13th of August. No response. Wake up and start processing this request
