"For any emergencies call us on ***" - Umvuzo

Interesting that nowadays you have to work via hellopeter to get responses from companies. I work at a doctor's office. We need urgent pre-auth for a patient on his way to a cardiologist. I have been phoning the "emergency" number ***non-stop this morning and held the line for a total of 60min with no one answering. No response on email or whatsapp either. Should the ambulance drive via your Head Office first? Is someone there? How and why should I recommend Umvuzo to anyone?

Reviewer Update
Matter resolved. Thank you very much. A Mr Nelson Mwale contacted me and we had a fruitful conversation. He was friendly, understanding, and knowledgeable. According to him, the issue was due to high call volumes. I do understand but unfortunately, that cannot happen in an industry working with medical emergencies. Capacity must be increased. Thank you. Case closed.
