This company is the worst when it comes to withdrawing your funds, they lie to you from point A to point B without giving you answers. I withdrew my funds on the Monday, I was suppose to receive no later than Friday as their turnaround time is roughly 3 to 4 days. Friday when I phoned I was told there is a system issue and everyone who lodged claims on Monday were being affected, I was assured that the fund would be released no later than Tuesday the following week. On Tuesday when I phone was told the system issue has not been sorted out yet and that SARS is to blame, I was also told that they are waiting for them to rectify. Today I was given the same excuse, I then phoned SARS and spoke to a senior Manager. They have no record of any claim for me and also said that if they had an issue it would have been sorted within 24 hrs. I phoned MIFA again and before they could give me the same excuses I confronted them about the lies, then they tried to change their story again. You cant speak to a manager or someone that can give you a straight answer if they take your contact details no one phones back. It is the worst fund management company and would advise everyone to to stay far away as it seems when paying your portion of your own money is paid they don't care. It also feels like they are *****ing your money because on the app the funds have already been deducted, leaving you stranded without the money you have worked hard for. Stay away from them people, they are not an honest company to deal with.

When you no longer work for the Motor industry or withdraw from the fund they expect you to come to their office in JHB when you live 500kms away or else they will not accept the paperwork on email or with a courier how do they expect someone to travel that far when we live in a time where we have technology. Feels like they are want to run away from paying people out their own money.

Dear Motor Industry Fund Administrators I am writing to formally complain about the complete lack of support I have received from you as company, which has left me deeply distressed, disappointed, and feeling abandoned at a time when I most needed assistance. As a pension fund entrusted with safeguarding members’ financial security and wellbeing, I find your handling of my situation to be wholly unacceptable. Despite repeated attempts to seek guidance and support regarding my query I have been met with inaction, delays, and a concerning lack of empathy. I have made every reasonable effort to engage constructively with your organisation. However, my communications have either gone unanswered, been met with generic responses that fail to address my circumstances, or resulted in being passed from one department to another without resolution. This has caused significant emotional strain and has eroded my trust in an organisation that is meant to act in the best interests of its members. What I find particularly upsetting is the absence of any meaningful support or guidance. At no point have I felt listened to, understood, or assisted. Instead, I have been left to navigate a complex and stressful situation alone without any proper support that you are obligated to give me, despite the fact that this is precisely the type of support a pension fund should provide. Your failure to act with care, transparency, and urgency has had a real and personal impact on me. This experience has fallen far below the standard of service that any reasonable member would expect, and I believe it represents a serious failure in your duty of care.
