Good Bye Absa...

<p><strong></strong></p> <p>This is just a message to say goodbye Absa. I have been a client since I was 6 years old and you were known as Volkskas bank (The good old days). Today I have several platinum accounts with you. But because you treat me badly I am moving on. You should be ashamed.</p> <p> </p> <p>Here is why for you who want to know:</p> <p> </p> <p>- The interest rate on my Credit Card was just increased without any notice. So there is that.</p> <p>- Then they reduce the priority pass benefit to something called a dragon pass. This thing is completely useless. I can't use it anywhere and where I can use it... I am asked to phone some Japanese company to arrange to use the lounge. (Seriously)</p> <p>- I am about to travel overseas... my card will expire while out of the country. I asked them to send me a new card, which they promised was "on the way". After a week... 2 days to go before I leave... no Credit Card. "No sir... we will deliver it by the 8th. WHAT!?... "That's not what you said over the phone!?"</p> <p>- It took my wife 3 weeks to change her name on her ABSA account when we got married. We eventually just moved her to FNB... it was simpler.</p> <p>- and I can go on and on ... but hey... if you don't care... why should I.</p>
