Poor service - ABSA Credit Cards

I app**** for an ABSA credit card and accepted the propasal and signed it electronically on the 6th of January 2021. I also sent through the requested documents on the same day.

Until now I have not received any telephone call from ABSA regarding the delivery of my credit card. I have sent numerous emails and everytime I just get the automated response email back saying someone will contact me within 24hours. I have not received a telephone call as yet.

I have tried calling them myself however after holding for about 20-30 minutes each time I have given up.

My daughter also has a credit card with ABSA and she has had it now for 2 years, however she had to open a savings account with them in order to use her credit card. She has never received her card. Every time she contacts them they say it's a miscommunication with the couriers and the card will be sent to her nearest branch and she will be contacted, however after 2 years still nothing.

I am really dissapointed with the service I am receiving from ABSA.

Good day Rezona,

It's almost been 2 weeks since I complained and I still haven't heard anything from anyone at ABSA apart from this reply and the email you sent me stating that I will be contacted between 2-3 business days.

Good day,

Once again I have to post on hellopeter cause no one has contacted me until NOW!!!! This is rediculious. I cannot believe that I am receiving such poor service from ABSA. I signed the agreement for the credit card on 6 January 2021. How long do I have to wait for someone to contact me!
