Absa makes money by preventing removal of recipients from NotifyMe

Absa charges for their NotifyMe service and then does not allow you to remove recipients. Trying to call in is impossible as they are permanently 'experiencing high call volumes' - probably because the app and online banking malfunction most of the time.

6 Days later and still no resolution. It is beyond my comprehension that it can be so difficult to change details on an account.
