NOT HAPPY WITH DISCOVERY BANKS TURNAROUND TIME

I have a Discovery Credit card, and have done for 15 odd years. This card was with FNB and due to Discovery Bank now opening, they automatically moved my account to Discovery Bank.
I have made 3 payments from my business account in FNB to my Discovery Card. One of the 23 July and 2 large payments on the 27 of July respectfully. I did these using the old method, in other words like I have done for the last 15 odd years though the FNB profile, and although they have now moved over should be redirected immediately to Discovery.

I requested a Manager to call me, i did get a missed call, which may have been from them,, but this is a number that is not able to take incoming calls, and no message was left, no email, sms sent. All you get it the automatic reply emails, which promise you their service and attention - they are not
