Capitec bank is a heartless institution
hello peter, my name is Zefeziwe Thokwane, i am a unemployed single mother, on the the 30/09/2020 I accidently sent money to a wrong number which was *** ,I added the 7 by mistake, after calling the person who was supposed to receive to confirm if they had received the money(1250.00),I found out that they hadn't, since the transaction was made in the evening I couldn't rush to Capitec bank to seek help, but the following morning I went to Capitec in QWAQWA but to my surprise I was told that there was nothing they can do, and that the person had already withdrew the money. my only 1250, they did not even attempt to contact the person to ask her to return the funds ,they were in a hurry to get rid of me. they only gave me a log no. . I tried to be brave after crying the whole night and day since I'm unemployed I didn't know what to do. Capitec is a heartless institution that does nothing to help you. on that same day I was going to write a test ,I was stressed out that's why I ended up typing a wrong no. being left with no options I tried calling this lady, on true caller her name appears to be Nondu Khwela ***) whenIi called a child answered and said that her mother who is Nondu could not come to the phone as she was out, when I called again later she answered the phone in a very rude manner and denied receiving and money and even denied her name being Nondu after the child confirmed it to be true, she was extremely rude and hang up the phone on me, and now she is ignoring my calls. Capitec was supposed to be the one helping and doing the calling but they do not want anything to do with me. I want my money and I need suggestions on what to do as this was my last money which I had been saving for months. please help me. I cannot sleep or eat, I am stressed out and depressed. for those thinking of joining Capitec bank don't, mistakes are not allowed there, they forget that we are humans!!! the poor service is heart breaking on its own!

i would like to say that NOTHING was resolved. i was told the same thing that i was told at the branch that nothing can be done. i was told that this lady has already withdrew the money. i mean how do you spend the money that does not belong to you, and how is it that such a huge bank has no action to take in such a huge problem, i am pretty sure that a lot of people have made this mistake, i feel that they should be measures to assist if such mistakes happen. i was told that i would receive a call from the complaints manager to address my problem but really all that was said to me was that the lady is hanging up and she cant be forced to return the money. i mean this is a huge bank and i am sure that it is insured, why cant i be refunded and you deal with greedy lady Nondu Khwela. i am sure if the money belonged to the bank you guys wouldn't rest, day and night i am sure you would be working out a solution. i was told to open a case and to let the police handle the case, first and foremost i am in free state and this lady is in KZN, how and where will the police find her. Capitec is here suggesting the impossible instead of returning my money. i want my money, i am a single mother who is unemployed with a son, i have to provide for my son, all that this has done is to cause stress and depression, R1250 is a lot of money for someone who has no pay check at the end of a certain period.
Capitec please refund me my money.
