SHODDY CUSTOMER CARE SERVICE ABSA

why is to so easy to get a credit card but so difficult to have it cancelled. My credit card is in the black - the interest per month is R0,70 and the monthly fee R90.

I have a credit card with ABSA and after waiting more than an hour in a line, I left had breakfast came back and waited another 40 minutes to enquire about my cheque account card that was faulty. I asked the consultant to I wanted to cancel my credit card and of course I had to call a nr. I just could not get through to any agent and was bombarded with adverts and banking on their APP.

Send an email to the contact address. I received a call for a few seconds which my phone identified as AbSA but when I picked up the phone was dead. I received a mail stating that I was contacted many times but of course I can now use other ways to cancel the card. why cant the so called customer service staff in the bank not cancel a credit card

Isabel of Absa called today and the account will be closed and my money transferred to my other account. Thank you. Absa staff inside are always helpful but this policy that you to call call centers does not work period.
