Capitec's unfair, unruly and unrelated act to ***** my money.

I provided an individual with a personal loan of R10000 on the 1st day of September 2017, R5000 on the 6th day of September 2017 and a final loan of R1000 on the 25th day of September 2017; amounting to R16000 in total.

On an unrecalled day in the month of October 2017, the person I loaned R16000 to notified me that they'd just paid the agreed full loan repayment amount in my capitec account. I then asked to call them back after I made a valid check by logging in and checking the available balance. A few minutes after, I notified him that it had reflected and that his loan settlement was clear.

Later on as I tried to purchase airtime using capitec, it didn't display my account where the loan repayment was made. After inquiring via the call center, I was told that my account was frozen and that I should visit a capitec branch to fix this.

When I visited the branch the following day, I was told that my account was frozen as part of ********** activities and money laundering. I then explained and showed my proof of payments of the loan payments I had given to this person; and further told the consultant that the funds received in my account was a loan repayment settlement which was pending to be made.

The consultant then asked me to go and write an affidavit sworn under oath that the funds I received were indeed a loan repayment; and to the affidavit, I should attach the proof of payments of the loan being made. The consultant confirmed that as soon as I submit the required affidavit, I'll be able to access my funds and account like before.

I did all that was required, and till today; my account remains the same and my funds remain inaccessible.

Please forward this matter to the correct Resolution Department that's ready to accept my proof of payments and help me.

Good evening. On the 7th of September 2018, I sent the proof of payments to the following email address: ********** In that very same email, I provided you with my cellphone number + ********** 9566 together with my email address ********** for you to contact me on. Today is the 17th of September 2018 (10 days later), and I still haven't received a phone call, reply email or written letter posted with regards to this matter. Your feedback would be appreciated. Thank you
