Debit order went off despite cancelling policy

I cancelled my building insurance policy last month (about 10 days before the end of the month). I was assured that the policy had been cancelled and that it would not go off this month. I requested a confirmation email but this was not sent - I didn't have airtime to call back so I trusted that all was in order. Yesterday, the debit order goes off, bounced back as I had insufficient funds (I did not budget for this to go off as I'd been assured it was cancelled), so I get charged a fee for the debit order bouncing. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT THE POLICY WAS NOT CANCELLED AS CONFIRMED BY THE AGENT!!!! I demand someone call me immediately and correct this as well as reimburse me for the airtime I used and the fee charged by my bank for the debit order bouncing.

The initial call was made on 22nd Feb at 9.46 (lasting 13m23s). Subsequent call was made on 2nd March at 7.26 (lasting 4m4s). Call made today (4th March) to try cancel AGAIN was made at 8.02 and lasted 17m52s. Thus, the total airtime spent due to YOUR error was R74.50.
