ABSA and their ****** FICA anxiety

Dear ABSA, I will not FICA my account every 5 minutes! Get your act together because I am not playing anymore. Been to the bank how many times, sent emails, updated on app, get told I am compliant but you keep making me FICA otherwise you will freeze my account!! Update your system because it has got to the point now where it is easier to close my account and go to another bank than keep ****** FICAing all the time! Useless!

MY ACCOUNTS ARE BLOCKED AND I CANNOT TRANSACT DESPITE YOUR ASSURANCE THAT I AM COMPLIANT!!!!!!!

And the number you give to call doesn't work. How do you expect your customers to remain loyal to you when you treat them like this! I have FICA'd how many times, I have letters from you confirming I am compliant but you block me anyway! Your service agents are unable to unblock me so I will just sit with my arms cut off until you get back to work tomorrow!!! Despicable!!!
