Discovery Insure, poor service.
I could not get my Vehicles registered because Discovery did not send OTP numbers when I took them to Tiger when & Tire to get inspected.
The relevant department was closed or did not answer.
I went back to my previous insurer who helped me to immediately get back cover with them and at a discount. I canceled with Discovery immediately, yet they keep deducting from my account. After calling them today, they were more interested in why I canceled with them than actually helping me get my money back.
The consultant ended the call without saying goodbye, nice.

07 Dec 2023, 11:04This is unacceptable.
I now get calls from agents wanting to know why I canceled my policy to try to get me to rejoin. However, my queries about the unauthorized deductions from my account after I canceled still go unanswered.
I tried again to contact Katleho Masanabo (who very skillfully sold me the policy) but she seemed to have disappeared. I tried the call center but apparently, they can't find my policy on their system and promised to call back. I did not expect the promised callback to be realized and I was right.
I read through the complaints on Hellopeter for my current insurer and compared it with Discovery. It seems like the majority of complaints for Discovery are over dismal customer service whereas my current insurer mostly receives claim disputes.
My 2 cents:
Your signup process works. Your sales agents are skilled and they leave a good and very professional impression. You seem to be primarily focused on getting more clients and not much else. I would not recommend you to anyone.
Now This is what should be done next:
1 Refund all deductions against my account immediately. Not next year.
2 Send proof that my policy has been canceled.
3 Stop trying to sell me your products. That ship has sailed.
4 Remove me from your call list. Do not call me again.
5 Remove me from your mailing list. Do not email me again.
6 Sort out your embarrassingly poor customer service.
Thanks

13 Dec 2023, 20:01I got a call from someone from shared value last week. The call quality was really poor and there was a lot of noise in the background. It sounded like he said that they were processing my refund and that I can expect to see it reflect in my bank account soon.
Still waiting...
I feel like I dodged a bullet the day I canceled Discovery Insure. If it was not for your inability to register my vehicles I would have been an active policy holder today. Now stop deducting from my account an refund me already.
A waring to all current Discovery Insure clients. Read the reviews. Don't wait for a disastrous claim experience to motivate you. Save yourself the grief and move to a capable insurer.
Think this over: When showing interest in getting insurance Discovery is relentless in their efforts.
You will be pursued by friendly, professional agents with good call quality and the promise of personal service. The moment you call the help desk it sounds like a big openplan **** call center.
I'm really disappointed in this company, I expected a whole lot more from them.
