Rude and completely bad client service
Never have I ever experienced such bad service as I received from Sipho at Absa in Brakpan, Prince George Street.
I called the branch to do a follow up on behalf of a client. Upon calling the branch the consultant from Absa knew immediately who I was referring to when I stated where I was calling from. The consultant informed me what he explained to the client regarding the matter at hand and I waited until he finished talking. After he was done talking I had follow up questions based on what he explained to the client. As I was busy talking he interrupted me and started to give me a number that I should call. I then asked if I can finish my question as I feel it is rude of him to interrupt me and at least listen to what I have to say. I asked him why he is interrupting me as I was not done talking, he then asked me if I needed his help or not. I asked him that we need a letter from the bank that states specific information to further help the client. His response to me was "who must print it?" and I said either him or the head office as I am not sure who can print the letter. I told him no it's fine and leave it because he does not want to help me or making an attempt to assist.
His response to me was that he does not deal with client complaints. Instead of listening to my concern and attempting to assist where possible, he does the complete opposite by not caring at all because he does not deal with complaints. This is shocking to me as he is representing Absa and should be able to deal with client complaints as it arises. This makes me think that he shows away every client that could have any form of concern regarding their account.
He thinks he is doing me a favor by talking to me (and still not helping at all).
I want an apology for his bad client service.

I was actually calling from another bank for an Absa client as she opened an account with Absa on the 31.08.2020 and the next day the were transactions going through her account, I told her to go to Absa as the transaction were Absa when she got to the branch they told her to go to her bank so they can open a ***** case. When she comes back to the bank I then called the branch to find out what can be done I then spoke to the Sipho guy who was rude to me and all I wanted is for us to assist our client.
My details are *** or ***
I would like an apology from him and his manager.
Thanks and Kind Regards
