Sanlam doesn’t care

Sanlam funeral policy is ****. They don’t even acknowledge receipt of a death claim. Sent one out on the 9th of June today is the 15th the funeral has to take place but there were no funds. We had to struggle when my uncle had a funeral policy town out for him. Funeral benefits are an emergency but Sanlam doesn’t care. Please consider other insurances and stay away from Sanlam they don’t care at all.

Reviewer Update
I’m still waiting to be called by the assessor. I’m struggling to understand why I’m being told different things. My mom took this funeral policy out for my uncle, she unfortunately passed on in January. When I called sanlam i was told I was the beneficiary on the policy. now I’m being told I have to get a letter of authority this is my uncle I’m talking about on what grounds will I get a letter of authority. I spent a lot of money on the funeral the least Sanlam can do is meet me half way with the little amount they have to pay. The fact that you just keep quiet shows how little you think of your customers. I’d truly advise people to stay away from this insurance company
