******* account freezing
This bank is unable to Fica an individual without a SA drivers license. I've been a customer of Discovery bank, nearly since they launched.
But now they need to Fica me again. No problem i thought, went through the apps process on 16 November and completed it successfully. I kept getting emails though that i have not completed the process.
So i called, then they said i should upload the docs and send them via email to ***. Id did both, no reply, and kept getting thode emails. So i called again, this time they reactivated the fica process in the app. But, this time it wants my drivers license and nothing else is possible. I do not have a SA drivers license anymore, since we are living temporarily living in Germany . The german government replaced my drivers with a german one, i had no choice.
So i've written multiple complaints to the *** and also called twice more. Sonin total 4 calls, 3 complaint emails later, no solution
Everytime they acknowledge there is a problem on their side but nobody fixes it!
I have no choice but to get legal advice on this absurd pathetic bank, who now froze my accounts! I still need and use those accounts actively!
I have an SA Id and Sa passport, but strange enough this bank is unable to give that option!
The next step is urgent legal advice and the ombud.
I have multiple reference numbers bytheway.
Thank you for reaching out to us.
Will you please confirm if you're scanning a green ID book or your smart ID card?

I can scan any of the 2 if you require it.
Your app does not give that option though, and that is the issue where your call centre constantly gets stuck at. They can see there is an issue, but nobody does anything about it.

What a pathetic Instituiton you are, forcing your clients to legal routes and bringing unnecessary stress to families. All because of your malfunctioning IT systems, and not doing anything about it.
