Do not try opening an ABSA business account!

Would not recommend anyone to open a business account via this Bank! Service has been appalling to say the least. One would swear that you are trying to rob the bank instead of bringing business to them!

We have been struggling for more than 2 weeks now(since 7/11/17 to be exact) to open a business account with this institution with no luck! Have called into the call centre on countless occasions to follow up on progress of account only to be told it has been escalated, but STILL NO FEEDBACK of any kind to let me know what the progress is! May as well go and apply at another institution - I'm sure by the time ABSA gets back with any feedback, my account would be active already at the new institution...TIME IS MONEY!!!
