Complaint of ***** on my Banking account and no assistance from Bank.

I have been experiencing extreme poor poor service with Discovery Bank. A payment went off on my account on the 29 September and that's where my problem started. I did not authorize this as a recurring or scheduled payment as they would call it,however it went off. I have been calling this bank from the 29 September upto Today 13/10/2023 with no one who can give me a proper answer. I sent through proof in the form of screen shots to show that I did Not select this payment to go off. They simply do not care to do a proper investigation or even get back to me. I've called and spoke to about 7 or 8 Agents now who cannot give me feedback. I am thinking there is also prejudice at play here as I do not have one of their Executive products so I am being treated as nothing with the hope that I will let it go. I am not willing to do that. I wish I could get the contacts for the banking Ombudsman. Discovery must know they are not above the law to alter bank accounts or do whatever they did in mine. It's *****. After I sent screen shots suddenly the payment was posted there as a scheduled payment. I thank Hod for the screen shots I took. The payment was Not there before when I layed the first complaint.

Hi  Bernice.

Thank you so much for your patience.

I have received feedback from our systems team as they have checked what happened with the case in question.

Kindly note that all scheduled payments can only be done on the Discovery Bank App when making an EFT payment.

Your scheduled payment was created 28.08.2023 through the Banking App and the scheduled payment got executed for two months (29.08.2023 and 29.09.2023).

I see you spoke to a banker who managed to assist you with cancelling the scheduled payment successfully on 03.10.2023 through the Banking App.

Kind regards
