I am truly desperate. My father passed away recently, and I tried to take care of his bank accounts until closure. There was an unknown debit order (R250-ish) that kept going off, with a reference SBIB MDR*****. I figured SBIB was Standard Bank (his bank) Internet Banking? Turns out, it was SB Insurance Brokers. This is a policy that he was paying for, but we have no idea what kind of policy. His bank accounts have eventually been frozen and the harassing messages of "we didn't get our money, so you're not covered anymore" came through.

So, either this is something worthy, from which we can claim or it is something that could have been cancelled some time ago. Who can help?
 
Why dont you conact the brokers and find out who they are, then furnish them with any relevant documents they might require?

Because it is part of a deceased estate of which I am not the executor and they will tell me to go fly a kite. I am not looking for anything skelm, I was just hoping that anybody else might have a policy like that and can tell me what an MDR policy is. I have reached out to the executor and asked them to action, but I am burdened by human curiosity here.
 
Only Standard Bank Insurance brokers will be able to tell you what it's for. The number after the MDR is usually the policy/reference number.
 
quick google on the MDR part had someone complaining about accident cover by Standard bank insurance Brokers. Seems to be addicent cover from there. not much to go on, but yeah...
 
I just called them. They cannot give me info without a death certificate and letter of executorship. It could be a number of things including a hospital policy, cancer policy, accidental death or disability policy, broken bone policy (I didn't know that even existed) or a number of other things.

Then the executor will have to enquire.
