Account locked once again..
Unfortunately here I am once again, my Capitec account has been locked for the second time this year.
The first situation was extremely depressing to deal with, someone had involved me in their ***** case but never once stated that I committed any *****.
Capitec got notified by FNB that I was the one committing the ***** without clearly reading the affidavit and my account was locked for 9 days on a false ***** case that wasn't even made against me.
The amount of stress resulted from those nine days, I had to call and worry about how I was going to pay for food and get by for the month as I would get little to no help regarding the situation.
Now someone has paid *****ed funds into my bank account which I used to pay another client. Capitec has locked my account once again and asked me to submit all necessary information to provide proof as to why the transaction took place but in the same breath said that I will have the money reversed from my bank account ??
I submitted all the information required on the same day, a few hours later in a panic at the Capitec branch. I asked the woman who helped me if there is any sort of way a client could ever verify a transaction if someone payed *****ed funds into their account and she said no.
I am sitting from Tuesday worrying about ever getting access to my bank account and having that amount of money reversed. I've given up on Capitec being there for their customers, the first case is still active from the 12/01/2023. I can only imagine how long this is going to take to get the "investigating" completed.
I wanted to close my Capitec account but decided to leave it after the first incident got resolved, I should have done it immediately when I had to opportunity.
I'm really tired of this treatment Capitec, I truly am.

I feel like a ******** by my own bank, how would any individual know if the funds paid into their account is *****ed funds?
I have done nothing ******* nor would I attempt to ruin my life but here I am feeling like this is all my fault once again.
I'm getting in contact with the ombudsman
I can't handle this stress anymore.

"We have escalated your service request to a specialist team for investigation. They will provide feedback within 5 working days"
Still no feedback, I have been waiting patiently to get any sort of information on what is going on with my bank account but nothing thus far.
The amount of stress im sitting with as I can't use my bank account to purchase any groceries, pay bills and help my mother out that has lost her job.
I don't know how I am to blame here, I did nothing wrong!

I provided all the necessary proof as to why this **** payed me the money but there's no update as of yet.
I'm not able to help my mother that is in a financial situation nor support myself because of the situation.
I have asked Capitec client care to collect my mobile device and investigate it to provide proof that I buy and sell crypto on a secure platform.
I am not involved in any ******* activities nor would I attempt to get myself thrown in jail.
I'm tired of Capitec making me feel like the ******** in every situation that occurs.
I'm just going to get a lawyer involved, it seems like Capitec only believes their clients are **********.

I forwarded all the information once again needed to provide proof as to why those funds were paid into my bank account.
I don't know if this situation will get sorted or not, im just tired of life at this point and Capitec is not helping me right now.
At this point I feel like my account will never get unlocked nor is anything going to get done but im hoping for the best I suppose.

I'm extremely disappointed with Capitec, I would understand if I was involved in ******* activities but I have no part to play in this at all.

Emailed the complaints department once again last night to include the formal complaint.
I wrote a detailed description of what happened and why it did involving the funds paid into my bank account.
I have nothing to hide, as mentioned before. Capitec is more than welcome to investigate my mobile device if they see me as the guilty party here.
I'm tired of being treated like a complete ******** by my own bank, this is just too much to deal with.
Awaiting the call that im supposed to get from Capitec today, let's see.

Inhumane treatment of your loyal clients, I don't see any reason to say with this bank after this.
You have caused nothing but stress in my life whenever a situation arises, im disappointed how this was handled.

Apart from your low fees, is it really worth it being treated like a complete ******** whenever something happens?
No, no its not.

Awaiting feedback right now, currently sitting 12 days without access to my bank account.
It's been a complete nightmare to say the least.

No feedback as of yet on the whole situation, I can't sit without having access to the funds in my bank account.
Very unpleasant to deal with these situations, I will hopefully get access to my money soon and close my Capitec account for good.

I'm now needing to ask friends and other family members for money to buy food and electricity.
Great job Capitec, keep up the good work!

I don't know why I didn't close my account when I have the opportunity, now they are sitting with my money once again holding my funds hostage.
Instantity to say the least, how you can make someone suffer like this and still hold their funds hostage.

She has escalated the case, hopefully I can get a response today regarding my blocked bank account.
At this point, I just want to get far away from Capitec..

I'll keep calling each and every day I suppose, it's terrible enough that I need to ask people for food to survive but airtime as well.
What a disaster.

Absolutely shocking how Capitec is holding my funds even when all necessary information and documents has been provided.
Stay far away, farrrrrr away from Capitec Bank.
