Banking app

Ive had good experiences with their customer service and am happy with the bank as such, but the banking app is an absolute abomination. It is so tediously slow that i iwant to throw my phone most of the time, to approve an online transaction takes no less than 3 attempts, doing any kind of purchase takes at least 5 minutes. And before discovery say its my phone, I convinced all my family to open discovery accounts, who have iphones, samsung, hi-sense, all have the same problem to a point where we are going to close our accounts just because the banking app is such a problem.

Hey Michael

Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention.

We pride ourselves in being the world's first behavioral bank with an advanced banking app, which allows you to meet all your banking needs at the palm of your hands . So not being able to meet these standards for you, is equally unpleasant for us. Factors outside our control such as network and merchant process times can impact your transacting experience. Please ensure that you contact our bankers as soon as you experience any issues with the app, so we can investigate immediately.

We would hate to lose you as a client, so we hope you can give us the opportunity to prove that there are better experiences to be had with Discovery Bank If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us on ***.

Kind regards,
Mpho

HI, thanks for the reply. If it wasnt for the fact that it is any internet connection, any time of day, every single time myself or any of my family use the app on any kind of phone, I might have beleived you.
