No Response from Discovery Bank

On 2 October 2026 I made three Sunbet payments of R1,000 each with Apple Pay on my Discovery Bank account. All three were debited and posted on 4 October. Sunbet has confirmed that they only received two of them, so R1,000 is missing.

I asked Discovery for proof of the transactions and for the missing R1,000 to be sorted out:

5 October: phoned, call reference *** October: second request, no reference number given 17 October: third request in writing, and again in the Discovery AI chat

Each time I was told the request was escalated and the team was generating proof. As of 23 October, 21 days after the payments, I have received no proof, no reference number, no named person and no date for a refund. I lodged a formal complaint by email on 17 October 2026 at 06:47. It is now 23 October 2026 and I have received no acknowledgement, no complaint reference number and no response. Worse banking I have experienced.
