be careful of Spectramed

Hi,<br> Inquired about Spectramed medical aid for my elderly parents through Karen De Lange. She requested all sorts of documentation before she could provide me with a quote. Later found out that they actually signed me up for the medical aid without me agreeing to the 'quote'. I cancelled the membership because I couldn't afford the premium within a few days of me being presented with the medical aid premium - that was in 2013. Today I find out that I am being listed for non payment for a medical aid that was not used and cancelled within the 7 days cooling off period! There's definitely a violation of the Consumer Act here. I have been emailing Karen from the first day of this ordeal and no response from the medical aid coming forth. I guess my next stop is the Ombudsman.
