Miserable Customer Software and Support

I have used a Discovery credit card for 15 years with no problems. Now I am asked to convert to Discovery Bank card. My experience with the website and the app has been terrible. And customer service has been even worse. I went through all the hoops to get a credit card which I have in my hands. After all that, I have to activate my card which I know how to do on the website but, after successfully logging in, the activation process fails every time. I have spend much time on the phone trying to get this resolved with no success. Then I tried the app on my tablet, and it won't even let me log in with the same ID and password!! I am sure, during all my years in managing information technology, I have never encountered an organization with such high objectives that is failing so miserably in the simple elements of good business.

Thanks to HelloPeter, Discovery contacted me and rather quickly solved the problem I had with getting my credit card activated. Thank you , Neo!!

Why did it take so long to get in touch with a capable support person?

Unfortunately, I will not be using the Discovery Bank credit card. Too many issues after card activation. Travel insurance benefit no longer available, either.
