Capitec Bank Cash Deposits Machines

Today, I went to a Capitec Bank in Cresta Mal branch to deposit money using the self-service machine. I entered my account number, and my account details appeared on the screen. I was then prompted to confirm the information, which I did. The machine subsequently opened, allowing me to insert the cash.

However, immediately after depositing the money, the machine went out of service, while the cash was already inside. I was shocked and concerned. I contacted the bank immediately, and I was informed that an investigation would be launched and that I would need to wait up to 24 hours for feedback.

This experience has left me deeply unsettled. While I understand that technical issues can occur, I am now left uncertain about whether the deposit will reflect in my account or if I will be told that no transaction was recorded.

I hope the matter is resolved promptly and transparently. In situations involving people’s hard-earned money, clear communication, accountability, and reassurance are vital.
