For the past week, I just keep getting "unable to load Vitality Active rewards" errors (or similar) on all Vitality pages. Tried reinstalling, unlinking and relinking device, nothing fixes it. What's the point of using Discovery and paying for Vitality and Bank if I can't access the rewards... And unfortunately you can't access it on the site, only the app, which is broken for me.

I can't access my own information as the app, since 2023, is not letting me sign in. Constantly gives me an error message. And when you call them, the phone rings forever. If it was not for my employer forcing me to be with Discovery, I would move back to Momentum. Discovery is quick to get you to sign for any products, but to get them some form of communication after, is near impossible. I dont understand how a company this big are LETTING their clients experience these issues?

I've been struggling for a while for my sleep activity points to update correctly in the Discovery app. I even tried force syncing my Samsung fitness app and still no improvement. Now out of the blue My Discovery app does not even want to open at all. I complete my logins exactly as meant to be and the app just closes off to my phone home screen again... Very frustrated because this is affecting my miles points😔😔😔
