ABSA Systems Down Again - Maria Ramos, what is going on at ABSA

<p>Did an international transfer. Received reference number. Hours later received an sms saying it was unsuccessful.</p> <p>Have been experiencing many problems with ABSA systems from last year and no one internally seems to be aware until clients call in and say that they are not working.</p> <p>No one senior tries to assist either. They often lie about the internal systems problems and eventually they come out and then they apologise.</p> <p>Really frustrated with ABSA. Got to be the worst in banking at the moment! And I used to like banking there.</p>
