Poor Service

Hi Unlimited,

Two weeks ago, I submitted a funeral claim for my late father. I have not received feedback since that day. This level of service is completely unprofessional and tactless.

In addition, upon raising a claim I needed to get all the required medical records. For this I had to pay R1500 to the treating doctor. Again, this is unjustified. At the point of contracting or taking up this policy none of this was mentioned. I am also puzzled as to why all medical records are needed if no underwriting occurs on the call.

Furthermore, I have not received an official policy document or schedule from The Unlimited. I sent a request for this in November, however, there is no response. As i understand, an insurer must issue a client a policy schedule within reasonable time. This has not fulfilled.

The claim process has been poor & shameful.

If I do not get feedback on this claim, I will will a log a complaint to the long insurance ombudsman.
