Constant "Card Could Not Be Added" error – Zero help from Customer Care
I am extremely disappointed with the service I’ve received from Absa regarding my student card. For three weeks now, I have been trying to add my card to Apple Pay, but I keep receiving the "Card could not be added" error. I have followed every step on the banking app, ensured my card is active, and checked all my settings, yet nothing works. What is more frustrating is the lack of support. Every time I call the customer care line for assistance, I am put on hold indefinitely. I have spent a ridiculous amount of time waiting for a consultant, only to get nowhere.As a student, I rely on digital payments for convenience and safety. Absa markets itself as a digital-forward bank, but their support system and technical integration for student accounts are clearly failing. I need someone from the technical or card department to contact me and resolve this manually, as the standard channels are useless.
