Shapiro Shaik Attorneys Shake Down

I was retrenched suddenly and without consultation. With no package. From Bishop Bavin School. During covid. My Discovery Medical Aid went into arrears immediately. I made regular payments since 2021 and a huge settlement on 28 March 2023. This week, from 5 June 2023 I have received a call every day for more money. This morning it was a call at 7am. While driving to school. That's two months+ after my final payment, which was a huge sacrifice. I am charged for each call whether I speak to a consultant or not: I am a teacher and CANNOT take calls during my lessons. Sometimes the agents hang up after I say hello when I do pick up. There are recordings. "Your call is recorded foe blah blah blah". The charges range from R2.55 to R52 a time. When I call back I am charged for that too, in addition to my airtime. Also interest generated is calculated haphazardly. For instance: March 2021 there were three calculations. May only 1. Dec 2021 five calculations. June 2022 three calculations. Jan and Feb 2023 three times. March four times April five times. That's INTEREST CHARGED ON INTEREST. My invoice is inflated. I am being fiscally exploited about an already sensitive and traumatic event.
