Vitality - terrible experience

Good day

I joined Discovery Health and Vitality commencing 1 December 2019. I was extremely excited and downloaded the Discovery App so that I could begin to start a healthier lifestyle and earn the rewards.

Sadly the App does not give me access to any of the boosters that I want to use - see attached screenshots: No Device Booster No Healthy foods No healthy gear etc I lost out on all of the cyber Monday deals at Sportsmans Warehouse as I wanted to use the Device Booster and healthy gear booster to get the best deals and commence with my healthy lifestyle- sadly this could not be achieved as Discover has let me down! I also called your call centre and after going through what seemed like 100 Questions,I was finally connected with Luzuko Tom, who tried his best to assist. In addition the App is anything but user friendly- is this a way to deter individuals from achieving their goals- good tactic I must say ! But seriously, as a tech savvy person I would rate the app as not user friendly!

What is going to be done to resolve these issues, and how am going to be compensated for not being able to purchasing the healthy gears and devices.

I would appreciate that these concerns are addressed!

dear Discovery
It is sad that you send a generic response on hellopeter, but fail to even acknowledge my email complaint (which was sent before the hellopeter review and was exactly the same complaint)
Secondly no one has contacted me.
This is very poor customer service !

I find this to be totally unacceptable- you have issues with your technology and we as the end user is disadvantaged! It is evident from this that Discovery is not a client centric organization and does not practice its core values!
I did not even receive a telephone call- just a cold email!
This matter needs to be escalated and I expect a proper response!
