6 months struggling with July's cashback

I have been struggle for 6 months now to get my 50% cashback on my fuel spend for July 2020. When I got the email with my fuel spend and driving stats for July it said 0 for fuel spend and 970 drive points. When I queried it they said that the fuel spend wasn't recorded and I should email them the slip of when I filled up my car. I sent it and got an email that it was received. After a month of no reply I emailed again and got an email back saying "that there has been a system error regarding the payment" and "will advise once the matter has been resolved." Another month went by without any feedback, so I emailed again and got "we have followed up with our system department to provided us with feedback". 2 weeks later I emailed again and got this "Please be advised that we are still experiencing an error with the July 2020 cashbacks, our Systems Department is working on the error". A month later without any feedback and I emailed again. This time I got this message back "Please note that as per systems the July cash back rejected as the unit was faulty. A faulty unit does affect the recordings of the trips and as a result affecting the cash back.". So we went from my fuel spend not being recorded, to a system error regarding payment to the cash back rejected as the unit was faulty. How does that work? I had 970 drive points on my July statement, so this is just a reason not to pay me the cashback. It is pathetic how I had to contact them every time just to get some feedback regarding the cashback and then in the end it being rejected because of a poor excuse of the unit being faulty. I even asked for someone higher up to contact me to sort this issue out, just to get an email that the issue was escalated to the Systems Department and that I will be assisted within 48hours, which as you can guess never happened and that is why I'm turning to Hellopeter to get this sorted.

3 weeks and still no communication from Discovery. Always quick to respond and acknowledging the issue, but then never comes back to you with a solution. How can this be so difficult to resolve?

So after another month of no feedback, I decided to email them again yesterday, even including this review on Hellopeter. I got an email back today and got another BS excuse of "Although the cashback was generated, payment was suspended as there was no app and tag engagement for that month.", although I got 820 driving behavior points for July, so how can it be that their were no app or tag engagement, then it would be zero points for July. I am getting so sick of having to contact them to get feedback and when I get feedback it's usually another BS excuse.
