Discovery refuses Covid Vaccination

I would like to certify Discoveries absolute incompetence when handling the booking for Covid vaccination for my daughter: • We went into the connected Care online system and saw that she could be booked for a second vaccination after having received the first one on 21 Oct 21 • A booking was made for 3 December 0800 am and also shown in the Discovery App • We went to Discovery Plaza in Sandton where all details were verified, vaccination record was checked together with her passport details and Discovery Member Card • When going through the final registration prior to the actual vaccination we were told that she does not qualify for a vaccination Why does this company advise us to book, provide a time slot, double check the available documents and then reject the vaccination. As a customer we are paying a lot of money for insurance including support for the RSA collapsed non-insured vaccination system and my daughter of German – Japanese decent get conveniently rejected. Makes one wonder!

The issue is not resolved. Overseas countries accept the discovery Vaccination Certificate and enter that into their national apps however Discovery does not reciprocate if one proofs an overseas booster on top of the received local shots
