Updating Banking details via your Discovery Portal - Doesnt work

Wow, wow, wow, what a frustration. I need to update my banking details as I changed banks. I followed the online portal bot steps. Up to this point it's easy and effective BUT now the portal doesn't want to accept my new banking account number with a VERY blaze error [Bank account details]: Invalid Account Number

Which I can confirm is not the case as this is a valid account number I have entered. The other BIG shortfall of the portal is it doesn't give you contextualized help/assistance.....and to try to speak to someone is almost impossible.

How on earth can something so simple be so complicated Discovery. All I want to do is to change my banking details for my 3 product portfolio's I have with you. Its not rocket science

So instead of fixing the problem that a consumer can change their banking details centrally on your portal, you now expect me to fill in pages, and page of documents to change this????? Come on Discovery, we are in the 2022.......

And to top it all off, you expect me to now do this repeatedly for each of my portfolio's I have with you i.e. Investment, Insurance ect.

@ Discovery - Please contact King Price Insurance and let them show you how easy it can be to change banking details. One phone call, recorded and security authenticated in less than 5 min. The attached screenshot is the error you banking details portal keeps on giving me even though the banking details are 100% correct.

3 working days and counting to see how this gets resolved !!!!!!!!
