    Woolworths Credit Card

    OK, so I can activate the first one as soon as I get it, and whenever she wants to use it, she can (before it expires at the end of the month)? If she doesn't want to use it, she just doesn't scan my barcode. That should work. Once she's used the first one, I activate the second one.

    Woolworths Credit Card

    Ah, so all they need is the barcode. Great. After I activate a voucher, how long would she have to use it?

    Woolworths Credit Card

    I'm going to be away for 4 months and don't want my free coffees going to waste - if I give a friend my physical card, will she be able to redeem the coffees without the app?

    Prepaid option that allows UK/Europe roaming (for OTPs)?

    OK cool, thanks for that - I wasn't sure and getting a straight answer out of MTN is proving difficult. They keep saying "You must have airtime to send and receive SMS" but they won't tell me how much airtime and keep saying it depends on the country and the network where I'm roaming. They also...

    Prepaid option that allows UK/Europe roaming (for OTPs)?

    I have asked them, when I was recently in Morocco and not getting OTPs, even though I had activated "Wifi calling" - they answered: "Unfortunately, Cell C prepaid does not support receiving SMSs via Wi-Fi calling, even when connected to Wi-Fi abroad."

    Prepaid option that allows UK/Europe roaming (for OTPs)?

    Just to say that my phone unfortunately does not take an eSim. I do have an account with another bank that does in-app authorisations, but I prefer not to use that account. I also have a second credit card that does in-app authorisations, but again - I prefer not to use that card. So I do have...

    Prepaid option that allows UK/Europe roaming (for OTPs)?

    I'm travelling overseas soon and unfortunately, both my credit card and bank work on OTPs. The credit card needs an OTP to authorise online purchases. The bank needs an OTP when making payments. I'm on Cell C prepaid, which I like, but they don't offer international roaming in the UK or some...

    Help me understand PMBs & what's covered

    So far it appears that there have been 4 claims associated with the surgery (anaesthesiologist, the facility itself, the surgeon and the radiographer), and only R354.08 of the facility bill appears to have not been paid (partly under reason code "Your healthcare provider may not claim for this...

    Help me understand PMBs & what's covered

    I was reading some older posts, trying to figure this stuff out, and someone mentioned these guys: https://www.medicheck.net.za/. I can't vouch for them, but it might be worth contacting them to find out more about the service they offer.

    Help me understand PMBs & what's covered

    Thanks. I don't have gap cover, but I'm not sure where gap cover comes in... the surgery bills have all been covered in full. It's just the out-of-hospital bills that I'm trying to get covered under the PMB rules. I guess the orthopedic surgeon and physios probably charge more than what...

    Help me understand PMBs & what's covered

    I'm on Discovery Classic Smart - essentially a network hospital plan (no MSA). Broke my wrist and went to a network emergency room. They did xrays, then a "closed reduction" in the ER, then more xrays. I paid for the xrays and the ER visit. They sent me home with an instruction to go see an...

    Discovery Bank

    No poit in complaining. Doesn't achieve anything. Here's an exchange with Discovery on X when they increased the spend bands for dynamic discounts: Me: You've upped the Vitality Money spend bands for the dynamic discount percentages. Fine. But then you haven't upped the monthly virtual card...

    SARS Tax Residency Certificate

    I have an appointment at my local branch (Randburg) at the end of the month. Their appointment system seems to be working now. I went a few weeks ago to try sort out a change in banking details which I wasn't managing to sort out myself via efiling. I waited about 5 minutes and got sorted. I...
