Absa Bank worse bank ever
I Held A premium cheque account with Absa Bank, but never used all their benefits cos I was not interested.. Service was great when I was Rotating 150k to 250k a month, with work I was doing.. I had a Overdraft 100k Credit card 40k Credit card 30k Then Covid hit 2019 March, I saw Absa had Covid 19 assistance to all clients self employed, I app**** April/May 2019 for assistance, then I received email few months later,stating application has been declined due to no loss 100percent income. Then I started phoning around trying to see who can assist me, called at Absa bank Greenacres pe.. Staff at credit life center didn't know what was happening, they couldn't find my emails,my documents I sent them..
Eventually after month, a lady emailed me about my overdraft, I explained her my situation, she gave me a number for absa action life.. They assist with problems and Queries..
Called the number and a lady By the name of Margret assisted me..
She looked into my problem, few days later,I received a call from the credit life department, Manager by the name of Hazel spoke to me, and said reason for declining application is no loss of 100percent income.. Then I explained to her how *********** she is as a manager, because if she had to read email she would see how I loss income..
Long story short..
When I proved to Absa bank I loss 100percent of income,they tried to find several loopholes not to pay me. They even made my name bad on credit bureau.
When I told them to find Recording of myself and Manager Hazel stating the reason for Declining my Overdraft R100k Credit 30k They so called can't find it..
Magret from action life managed to assist, but not completely.
I told her to review my 130k debt too, apparently Directors of Absa also declined my application, I say how funny it is now, when I prove I loss 100percent of income they find another loophole not to pay whats due to me,they also can't find recording between and Hazel to back up my story,how ironic isn't that..
I was in so much of debt I even had to sell my car to survive in covid, No one can give me credit now because ABSA MADE MY NAME SO BAD,I can't even boost my business,need to turn around cash on weekly basis.. Can't even get more business,because I don't have a cash flow or any credit facilities at my new bank, due to Absa.
