There is NO customer service at discovery bank!

I have bee with discovery bank since 2020. Thank goodness I haven't needed the help of customer service until the beginning of November this year. I sent two complaints to customer care on the 9th November and again on the 15th November because I had not received any feedback. Until today the 26th November I have received NO reply - Nothing! There is NO customer service at discovery! A refund was processed twice to my credit card and discovery sent my refund back! Historically I received a refund within 3 days from process to the same credit card! I don't know what is going on but this is unacceptable!

It's been nearly a month and I haven't received any response from you or anyone else at Discovery?

Hi Vera

I do apologise for the delayed response.

The refund is being rejected due to a currency mismatch, the refund was being processed in USD instead of ZAR.

The refund needs to be processed in ZAR in order for it to reflect in the account.

Regards
Beatrice.

Hi Beatrice

The original charge was in USD $14.99 to be exact.

So Amazon correctly reversed the USD charge that was charged to my card.

AMAZON reversed a charge in USD which was charged in USD a few month ago and there was no problem with the refund on this same card.

I think Discovery needs to go and look carefully at what they are doing or delegate the investigation to someone competent.

Hi Vera

I have escalated your query to the Dispute team as per case number *** for further investigation to ensure that the funds are not with VISA.

I will revert back once this has been concluded.

Beatrice.
