Discovery Banks Mess

[BBSA]

Bad thing happens if you planning to discriminate against a some of your customers based on the colour of their skin.

FNB gave people 'free' money last year and took it back the next day. I've also been in a PnP one year trying to pay with my FNB card when the cashier told me FNB was offline. Had to leave my stuff there and go back the next day. Thankfully it does not happen often, but it does happen.

100%.. I am in no way saying that FNB (or anyone else) doesn't have downtime. Its just that I have never seen FNB sort of work but show me as having an account with a zero balance.... that is all.

To think that I signed up ery early with these guys. Sure glad that they decided on their so-called selected on boarding rubbish that I ended up losing interest.

This bank has been having issue after issue. Tyme bank has had its issues but not on this scale, Discovery bank is on another level.

Pretty sure FNB had this exact issue in the last year where balance didn't reflect and just zero'd out.

Thanks. That proves I’m not going nuts and they are hardly infallible having done it first.

Seems like a sensible default fail over state if you can’t connect to the system to show the real balance.

i feel like an error is more sensible than incorrect information

try
{
balance = getBalance();
}
catch(...)
{
balance = 0;
}

For sure a simple N/A would so the job.

Can't access my money.

And no support from discovery.

Scam bank.
