Canceling of my Credit card

Good day,

This service is unacceptable, I tried to close my credit card. I made payment to my credit card - According to outstanding balance on the card.

I phone in to close account but they where unable to assist me, they told me there is a outstanding balance of R480.62 that I need to pay. I asked to send it to me on email with the settlement letter. ABSA was unable to assist but I still made payment.

I went in to the branch to close my credit card and still ABSA was unable to assist.

This is ridiculous service, I am extremely unhappy with this service I am receiving from ABSA.

Good day,

Some feedback on close of credit cart and new query:

Is ABSA trying to lose all of there customers. If I was able to rate ABSA in a minus, I would have.
Call the call center regarding my credit card was closed( finally) ... there was a credit amount of around +/- R430. They told me that the funds would be payed it to my account in the next 24 hours... Still awaiting.

Just yesterday day I phone regarding a SWIFT payment.. A gentleman ( Lee) assist me... I was told I would receive a certain amount. I received the payment the next day but this was not the same ammount as I was told. I phone in and spoken to a lady( Lyla L) she told me there is a deduction of R350 be cause I phone in to request payment.
I was never told about this amount because then I would have done it on my App because it cost less.
This information was not told or disclosure to me.
I am extremely unhappy with ABSA and would not recommend ABSA to any one. I have been a loyal customer to ABSA for 15 year. This will be the last.
