Discovery Bank

[ies87]

It's not how much it's on what that bugs me with Discovery, I am not a vegan so the healthyfood has zero relevance to my diet I eat red meat and lots of it.

With Tymebank you get points on "anything" - food, TVs, shoes, rent, electricity - everything.

Discovery has always been, and will always be, about leading a healthier life. Healthy Food is an incentive to do just that. They're certainly not forcing anyone to be vegan, they are encouraging you to make healthier choices. I'm not saying that red meat doesn't have a place in a healthy diet but they can't exactly reward you for buying it. Ostrich is offered as an alternative to red meat, and there are plenty of other sources of protein on the list.

If Tyme Bank has a better offering in your opinion then it surely makes sense to bank with them and not Discovery? In order for Discovery to make sense from a rewards point of view, you need to have a vested interest in their entire ecosystem (i.e. health, vitality, invest and insure) in my opinion.

With Discovery Bank you get miles on "anything".

Must say I am pretty negative with discovery right now. The app doesn't work with my proof of savings and they don't get my email attachments. Basically they said those are the only two ways so they can't help m, what a joke.

Bread and other carbs are fine - extra lean mince is not.
I'm sorry you are an idiot (OR very ill-informed about what is healthy and what is not) if you think their recommendation is legit.


Vegans = Discovery Jackpot
Actual athlete = Don't bank with discovery.

Note: I have nothing against people that bank with them, I do too. However don't for a second think their "Vitality Health" is anything other than a gimmick for marketing purposes, same with their "behavioral" bank. If a requirement is for me to spend to be rewarded then you are just playing marketing gimmicks.

I had the same fight for over three months,even had the CEO email me to apologize (I'm sure it a a generic email) so I gave it a while and then resubmitted my proof of savings via the app and presto I went up a money level

I also got an email from the CEO. Also seemed pretty generic.

It is generic, my friend is part of the team that sets up their automated marketing emails of which this was one.

Me too lol. I think it got sent to everyone. Can’t imagine many people haven’t complained about anything yet.

The link you posted is pricing for Vitality Active, the toned-down version of Vitality. Vitality Active Rewards is a free value-add on all Vitality plans (their naming is super confusing). Vitality Money is not free but the premium is included in your account fees. You don't have to opt in afaik.

Does anyone know if you can send discovery miles to one another like Ebucks?

Yes, if they are a contact with Discovery Pay activated.

Oh cool. Anyone want to sell me their miles. I see discovery gives you R1 for every 12 miles. Can offer 11.5 miles for every R1.

You should get extra plays!

Unfortunately my missing transactions are still missing ....

I have also queried missing transactions and it has been 5 days now... Anyone got any explanation from Discovery as to why they are missing or demanded the missing plays?
