Money Thevies

I will never use African Bank again. I have had a loan through them for 4 years, I consolidated the debt with another bank who paid them and now I am in credit with them of R3000+. They call centre won't help! I changed my phone number so now that I have a new number they won't verify me even though I have called through and changed it numerous times, but I still get messages and calls from them on my new number! During Covid they didn't verify anything when they called me to give me a paymnet break. When i declined it they still gave it to me so my loan went up and was extended, also then when i called to dispute it they suddenly couldn't help or verify me!!!!!!! SO now that they owe me money, I get no help and the customer service person Emanual was extremely rude. I have never missed a payment in 5 years they have taken my money quite fine but now won't assist when they owe me. Its my cash not your, how many other people have this problem!!!!???? I am extremely unimpressed, they ***** from their clients! DO NOT USE THEM! GO TO FNB!

I went into your branch in 2021 after sending emails to you saying that my number has changed on your side from when i app**** for the loan, i don't have that phone number . all my correspondence to you when i app**** for the loan have my correct number on it, i still have all the emails. nothing has changed since i app****, nothing has change for the last 4 years you have debited my account, i have never missed payment, I just want the money you owe me deposited back in my account that you debited R5814.10 every month. there's was no authenticating my cell number or visits to a branch when you where taking my installments happily.

Well this is a waste of time!!!! You have just called me on my number, and actually spoke to me yet you still insist that i have a different number on your system. I don't care what number you sucked out your thumb that's on your system its not my NUMBER. you just called me on my actual correct number....... seriously !!!! Look at my application I filled out with you !!!!
my details are the same. I have emailed you my bank letter from FNB, My id and deposit report from FNB. Done last week . SO just do what ethical and refund me
