Unhappy with 2 pot withdrawal

I requested money from my retirement savings pot. This is quite urgent and Sanlam is telling me that it will take 22 days to receive the money. Why is it taking so long because government said such requests must have a quick tuen-around times. Sanlam must do better. Alexandra Forbes take less than 7 days to process and pay the money.

Reviewer Update
I was assisted by Amalia Mitchelle. She responded to my query very swiftly and resolved it within a day. Amalia was very professional and explained the entire process which really kept me at ease. Thank you Amalia.

Sanlam needs to change their turn-around times when it comes to our queries. The slow response is not working for us clients. It's 2025 now, you can't be telling us about 7,15, 21, 44 day turn-around times. Improve your processes and technology. Learn from your competitors otherwise you'll lose business.
