DON'T Switch to ABSA!!!!!

I have opened an Platinum Cheque Account online on the 28th of May 2015. 2 weeks later I haven't heard a word so I called the Call Centre - I were transferred to not less than 8 different dev's and still no feedback. Then I were told they can't open an Account online and I have to go into the branch. I went 3 times to the Branch and EVERY TIME I had to stand in a que at Enquiries for not less than 1 hour and then another hour at the consultant = a total of 4 hours incl. my travel time to waste. After the 3rd time they \forgot"to uplift the HOLD on the account and my Salary return to the company.<br> On receiving my Cheque Card there were no documents or sealed envelope - just the card.<br> Bear in mind"
