Premium increases not agreed on

This is the second time our premiums were increased with almost R100 without signing or giving consent on the increases.

Firstly in 2020 they increased the premiums and we didn’t sign or give any consent for that. We asked for the signed app confirming any changes or increases that was not forthcoming.

Last month we received a call about some stupid benefits to be added onto our policy and we declined the offer and told them that we don’t want any added benefits on the policy.

Now this month the premium was increased with another R100. We are not happy with this stupid increases and we want to hear the voice recordings on the consent that was never given.

This was the initial increase complaint in 2020 about something we never signed up for.

Thanks for getting back to me but I think every agent is ignoring my concern/question, does the 40% annual increase do any difference to the sum assured? I am sorry I am not paying for airtime deal or groceries I believe if the annual increase is so high there should be benefits to my policy, please do advise on the matter and also advice where I can escalate this to. PLEASE SEND ME MY ORIGINAL SIGNED POLICY FORM HIGHLIGHTING THAT THERE WILL BE ANNUAL INCREASES. This is the fourth email i am sending and I spoke to two agents as well none of them explained why such a huge percentage of annual increase and I would like to know if this is what will happen again next year I did not sign up for this
