Discovery Bank

So it looks like the financial analyser is somehow tied to the new points and status

 

[Koosvanwyk]

I hope so Koos, and I wish they were breeding money and not bleeding money. But given that their breakeven point for clients is 500k-600k and they are only half that, they will still bleed for some time to come.

Gives you a good idea of where my mind was last evening

Looks like there is slightly more information on how this will work, but we will have to wait until closer to Jan 2022 it seems.

Nothing really, unless you need the 5000 points to make it into the diamond category.

Knowing how they have F-up prior major updates (thinking of the recent changes to Vitality Drive by example), here is to hopefully having a bonus R1m in my account tomorrow.

Mine is showing, but vitality drive is not

Why don’t you just use Capitec. It’s even cheaper using Capitec.

Doubt they beat Shyft on International forex transfers.

I mean with EasyEquities. Capitec has negotiated a 20% discount on fees and discovery doesn’t.

Number 2 you can do. If you go to the transaction details and click on it. Scroll down to "Financial Analyser" and tap on it. Then tap on the edit button, it looks like a pen. On the list select the approriate classification.

Ah, thanks. Lots of work ahead...

Are they talking about the weekly money goal(7/10 etc) or the goal to move up status(gold silver etc)

Not the weekly money goal, the points required for Vitality Money status - driven by the 5 behaviours and now including budgeting.

Nr. 1, lol yes. My budget is completely out of whack because of a transfer i did from the Savings account.

I had the same problem, but when I re-categorized my transfer to my Nedbank account as "External Savings and Investments" it moved the transaction out from my expense view into the savings view, so that seems to have sorted the budget out.

I've come to realise the major disadvantage of not having a branch to go to is getting stamped bank statements.

Discovery has been trying to email it to me since yesterday with no luck (yes I checked spam). I've given them my main email, my work email and my husband's work email and nothing. They are claiming I'm the only customer with this issue.

Anyone else struggling or have ideas for me?

Just get a certified copy on the app?

It's for a visa application, must be stamped by the bank. It looks legit, maybe it will work

A mate noticed that discovery are charging him interest when they should not be and they double charged banking fees last month.

You can download stamped bank statements from the app or website.

I know. You can just see it's digital and I'm not sure if it's acceptable for a visa application, as usually they want "real" ones

With MileDDay coming up, does anyone know if the Vitality Hotel list on Kulula qualify for this extra discount?
