ZERO SERVICE AT SANLAM LEGACY FUND

My step daughter has submitted all the required documents to get her legacy beneficiary fund paid out to her on the 4th of January 2024. Since then we have sent multiple emails as well as contacted sanlam to get the amount from them to be able to make a decision whether to reinvest or get the lumpsum paid out. We are being sent from pillar to post. Firstly we as parents of our newly turned 18 year old assisted her then was told she can contact the fund and find out what the value is and after the call we were told Sanlam is trying to catch up as they are behind. Due to the incompetence of Sanlam our daughter will be missing her registration to start her degree this year. Sanlam were easy to take the funds from her mother who have passed but when it comes to assisting the beneficiary they are useless. I would never recommend any person family or friends to take out a policy at Sanlam if this is the way our living family will be treated after our deaths.

Good Day

I have given you the reference we received from Sanlam on the Hello Peter review.

But just another reason to delay feedback I assume.

Her name is Chanel Nankia Els ID number ***.

We need this sped up as she has to pay her registration fees by the 21st of January 2024 in order to start her degree at Aros to become a teacher.

Your feedback would be appreciated.

Regards
Elsabe
