Common South African Statement Challenges
We haven't seen a Discovery Bank statement yet, but based on statements from other South African banks we've processed, here are common challenges we handle:
Currency Symbols Breaking Numeric Parsing
Many South African statements embed currency symbols (e.g., "$1,234.56") directly in amount cells, which breaks numeric parsing in Excel and most CSV importers. We strip these symbols so amounts import as clean numbers.

Inconsistent Date Formats
Many South African statements use different date formats within the same document (e.g., "30 Jun 2025" for statement dates and "15/03/2025" for transactions), which can cause date parsing errors or silent misinterpretation. We normalize all dates to a consistent format automatically.

Phantom Balance Rows on Every Page
Many South African statements repeat "Balance brought forward" and "Balance carried forward" rows on every page. Without filtering, these appear as phantom transactions in your export, inflating your transaction count. We remove them automatically.
