problem with ABSA identification questions + rude consultant

Absa Bond department - terrible service! called in to get a settlement amount and failed the identification test twice. the questions were basic and still failed. there is a problem with the system. then the lady consultant is not helpful and does not explain properly what to do next. i have to ask and explain before getting a flat answer in a "matter of fact" way that suggest to me that i should already know the next steps. i am in the process of settling my bond and taking a new bond but now will consider a different bank due to this.

thanks Vanessa, i called back after and spoke to a lovely lady called Anita who assisted me. it turns out that Anita could not find any prior call logged which means that the lady that i spoke to did not log the call. i regretfully did not get her name as well. she sounded like a coloured lady but i stand to be corrected.
