Did not adhere to SLA to close credit card, instead charged more fees.

Settled and requested that my Platinum Discovery Card be closed in March. After meeting various requirements, I received an e-mail on 6 April stating the card would be closed with in 5 to 7 working days. Instead, I received another statement today (18 April) reflecting the deduction of a full month's fees. Very clever: don't adhere to basic Service Level Agreements to extract additional fees. PS The Discovery Card Protector is also used an excuse to delay card cancellations and account closures. Joke's on you: I have a Life Plan and RA that I am also now going to cancel - I can't deal with an organisation that can't adhere to basic SLAs!

Thank you for your comment.

As per our telephonic conversations there was a delay on your account closure process due to the Discovery Card Protector policy cancellation process. I acknowledge that this should have not been the case and we are looking into this process to ensure that in future it becomes a seamless one. Your account has been successfully closed and as confirmed with you the credit balance has been paid to your chosen account.

Please feel free to contact me directly should you have any further concerns in this regard.

Best Regards

Amanda
