Cabinet: RAF settles claims in less than six months

[@SouthySouthy]

This guy is a proper representation of leadership. We need guys like this in every state owned entity especially Eskom where thugs are milking the entity dry through rogue evergreen contracts

[@lesedizondo1381]

Im very impressed, Principled and firm. No ambiguity at all.

[@alkebulanafricanconversati1728]

We are beginning to see change in Eskom though

[@lesedizondo1381]

@alkebulanafricanconversati1728 Bazophumelela , I'm not stressed at all, our smartest ppl are there they will break through.

[@hodlinvestor1742]

Collins Letsoalo will be on the right side of history. He will be remembered for taking away the easy meal of Lazy Lawyers who have been defrauding the most vulnerable of our society in South Africa. May the Good Lord Protect Him

I have a claim that date to 10 March 2001. It was partially settled in 2017 (merits and General Damages). The Loss of Earnings remain outstanding. The Experts reports were done completely in 2021. The Acturial Report stating how much the RAF should settle the amount of Loss of Earnings was done in December 2022. It is now April 2024. The RAF is unable to settle the claim because it cant allocate a Claims Handler. I have been sent from pillar to post. I have even travelled from KZN to Pretoria at the head offices of the RAF all in vain. The matter is now in abeyance. The RAF is a broken, obtuse Government agency with very poor administration.

[@Dfunky777]

A accident report cost R430 A medical report from the clinic is R1400 The total trips/taxi/ petrol fare cost for the claiming process is R2000 So the basic minimum cost to claim at RAF totals to R4000. Anyway I love this brother he is a very assertive person and driven.

Medical aids pay benefits in accordance with the medical aid plan chosen by the member. This benefit is linked to monthlhy contributions from the member. Why then, do medical aids claim from RAF as they already have their share from the member's contribution? This amounts to double dipping by the medical aid.

[@FerderSBV]

This guy have an excellent grasp of governance

[@benjaminshilkwe9364]

Today, I'm just watching his interviews and the recent press briefing. I have to say, this guy makes a lot of sense to me, and I really like him!

[@bonnymathebula007]

They are rejecting all direct claims with all documents. He’s misleading the public

[@MansaMusaII]

He is saying currently they are because lawyers colluded before and put that law in place in RAF so that claims can be done through lawyers. His predecesors failed him so he is changing that and wants to remove that law and people can make direct claims.

[@bonnymathebula007]

@@MansaMusaII he’s saying people can claim directly yet he’s currently rejecting direct claims. In short, there’s no direct claim that RAF are accepting right now.

[@Technology24]

You must stop being hired by Nigerians to carry documents to RAF how did you even know you should do that?Thats an ANC Nigerian idea mos.

[@bonnymathebula007]

@Technology24 you must be lost in some forest of stupid comments. What are you even talking about. Where do Nigerian even feature here.

[@ntshadis6712]

I was in an accident 6 years ago ( 2018) no payment has been made yet

[@chaukezivanai8408]

Same as me accident 2018 sign court order 29th of September 2023 but still no payment has been made, But wonder how because some people sign October and November 2023 but they're paid already

[@peaceinmyheart2996]

​@@chaukezivanai8408that's a space of 6 months. Did they apply through a lawyer or not?

[@Dfunky777]

Did you make a claim with all your documents complete..?

[@khomotsotefu3687]

It's not true.... It's very shocking that the CEO can come on national TV a blatantly lie like this.. Claims are not being paid, cost are not being paid... And there is no such thing as settling claim within six month...

[@GwabiniMfwethu]

This guy unenkani😂 I remember when he said the LPC are just a boys and girls club😂😂 What he’s saying makes total sense🤞🏾

[@TshephoMorapama]

My attorney gave me 180 days this year 8 February am still waiting ,he said to me he still waiting payment from raf

[@RodolfBotha]

I agree if someone has medical aid they should claim their medical bills from the medical aid and claim loss of income from RAF

[@agnesmahlangu5210]

Since 2013, still waiting

[@sihletngcobo]

I like this guy!

[@tumimatlala9215]

This is a blatant lie. I know people with cases at least 14 years old 😔

[@mxolisimncube7549]

I received payment in 18 months..I think if U have all the paperwork it's quick

[@gamuchiraigorima]

Since 2019 ,no money

[@Antoinette-iv6ev]

Still waiting for a direct claim for 4 years

[@SanelisoJama]

Seems like direct claims take way to long

[@alliemohammed2702]

This guy is a professional liar

[@tebogomametja1426]

what is he lying about?

[@mashambadavhana891]

Back up with facts, where are the lies in what he's saying?

[@DelaniNkontwana]

I'm lodged a direct claim with RAf in 2012 since then nothing is happening my brother state of health is deteriorating ,where as those who use lawyers have been paid

[@vjchabane9795]

You were misled to do that

[@chaukezivanai8408]

They're lying because I sign my court order on the 29th of September 2023 but still no payment

[@CasperGroenewald]

Once u are a direct calmer it might be good but u always got forgotten for 5 year or more don't try it

[@christophersemenya9890]

This is proper, in the first place lawyers should be focusing on other cases matching their legal careers. Unlike police who dress in bullet proof vest to sign the affidavits the whole day.

[@SanelisoJama]

But it’s actually opposite to the truth… there are people who have direct claims from as far as 2015 and they’re still on a waiting list.

[@KamogeloMotswenyane-oc2qw]

Please man help us all, since I have opened the case against my lawyers who robbed me the money but no one helping.

[@CarlCordier-g8w]

Wait fot setyelmenft smd end of 2016 you say you better on the moment but with all callif you phone get same answer raf had not made any settlement settlement yet can inform why not playing for time

[@MariaFourie-k5v]

[@DokoloCity]

[@nkeleagnes8280]

[@beverleywagner188]

I lost my 28year old son in Oct 2022,was told by the attorney I thought would assist me that I cannot claim for his death by accident,my son being the only child was a passenger. I have all documents. Is it possible for me to apply directly to the RAF office

[@ModiseMcira]

go to RAF, you will be assisted

[@darlingtonmachilar6745]

But the lawyers pay them out to their clients after 6 years

[@DokoloCity]

I agree with him and discovery must pay back the money

[@s.v.7741]

Lies ...they stil paying Rosemary Ndlovu
