Stay away

So I get my western union done every month and I was advised to open up a absa account as I won't be charged for depositing the funds into my account. I will only pay the R50 to get it opened. I go to the teller and the teller states she will give me cash as there would be bank charges so I took the cash, took my slip back to Vandyk and she then asked if I can right, I advised what the teller advised and vandyk told me she is talking nonsense I will only pay the R50 for initiating the account as it is new. I did the deposit needless to say R160 later after being assured I won't pay anything but the R50. You trust these people because they work their and you trust that they give you information that is correct. Asbsa are you in that much trouble that your staff have to lie and coerse people into opening accounts?
