Note the Friday close at 16:00. Discovery also prints a fax number for Discovery Invest, +27 011 539 5777. It publishes no WhatsApp number for investment clients and says it does not currently communicate with clients directly through WhatsApp.
Discovery Invest publishes no separate walk-in office or postal address in its contact section; service runs through the phone line, email, the app and your adviser. Discovery’s Sandton offices are at 1 Discovery Place, Sandhurst, Sandton, 2196.
Discovery Invest login and your documents
Discovery Invest runs its client self-service through the Discovery app and discovery.co.za. Tax certificates, investment statements and action items come through the Ask Discovery chatbot, which sits on discovery.co.za and in the Discovery app, and the documents themselves live in the Secure document vault once you have logged in. That route is available 24/7, so a statement or tax certificate does not need a phone call.
The same app and website are where you update your contact details, or you can use a “Request to change details” form from your financial adviser. Discovery Invest sends email and SMS alerts for policy anniversaries, maturities and fund changes, which is why keeping those details current matters. Documents that contain personal information are encrypted and open with your identity number or date of birth, so wrong details on record can lock you out of your own documents. Discovery Invest may also restrict transactions on policies where its anti-money laundering verification is incomplete.
Discovery Invest products and who underwrites them
Discovery Invest’s range covers retirement savings plans such as retirement annuities, retirement income plans and fixed annuities, flexible investment plans, endowments, guaranteed return plans and unit trust funds. Offshore, the Global Endowment Plan is issued by Discovery Life International, the Guernsey branch of Discovery Life Limited.
Discovery Invest is the brand of Discovery Life Investment Services (Pty) Ltd, registration number 2007/005969/07, an authorised financial services provider. Its life insurance based products are underwritten by Discovery Life Ltd, registration number 1966/003901/06.
Complaining to Discovery Invest
If the concern is about advice you received, raise it with your financial adviser first, in writing, with supporting documents. Otherwise, or if the adviser does not help, email invest_complaints@discovery.co.za with your policy number and the relevant correspondence. Discovery Invest says it aims to resolve complaints within 21 working days once it has all the information it needs, and will tell you if it cannot.
Discovery also warns of scammers using its logo on WhatsApp, email and social media to promise returns of up to 100% in 24 hours, and of a fake video of its chief executive promoting an investment. If a call about a payment does not feel right, check it with the claim payments team on 086 033 3362 before acting. Genuine Discovery emails come from addresses ending in discovery.co.za, and fraud involving Discovery can be reported to the Discovery Fraudline on 0800 004 500 or discovery@tip-offs.com at any hour.
