OVERDRAFT

I app**** on the ABSA bank for an overdraft.The application went through as approved and said it will be loaded.To my dismay they came back and said they dont see anything on their side and after that they said I am declined. ABSA should stick to their word and fix their problem and assist me as approved.C-***6

The e mail received still does not adress why I was approved on the app and I have also attached the screenshot stating approved to be 2 days later told its not approved.
What kind of service or banking is this.
Why is ABSA so bad

Thanks you cannot approve me and two days later decline me.I have sent the screenshot also off the app with the approval.And also this is an overdraft facility which is monet that will be paid as my salary goes into ABSA.I have allot of faith in ABSA as my preffered bank however this is now happening.
It goes without saying that you cannot approve and 2 days later just decline.Pls advice or escalate further.

Why was my application re scored when it was already approved on the app.
That is the question.
Why did my approve change to a decline.
Your app approves and says the overdraft will be loaded.
You then rescore with the same details that was app**** on the app and then decide to decline.
Why is ABSA being so un ethical and being unfair to its clients who trust them enough to have their salaries deposited at ABSA bank.

The e mail does not answer the questions.

Case reference number C-***6.

We escalated this matter to the higher mandate and Senior Manager, and the feedback received was that it was unsuccessful.

We do apologise for the inconvenience caused.

Morning It is with great regret that I am still waiting.
I am still awaiting a response and would like to close my account.
I think Capitec or FNB will be a better bank.

I am taking this further as your e mail stated to ensure non of your clients dont go through this also.
Will inform the sowetan and other papers of the un ethical practices of ABSA.
