*****

I am very disappointed in how Capitec responds to ***** on a persons bank account. An amount cam off my account on Monday evening with no authorization push notice for me to accept it and this large amount of money was just taken from my account. I phoned capitec immediately and they stopped my card and told me to wait 7 to 14 days to hear from someone. What must I do in the meantime with no money now, this amount was my month amount to live, I am a single parent and now have no more money due to this and I must wait two weeks for someone to actually contact me! This is not right. How do you expect me to live now till you can figure out why this amount came off my account with no approval from my side. I have been a client of Capitec for a good few years and this is nonsense I must wait for my money that I have worked hard for. I went to the branch the next day to get a new card and updated to be told there is no feedback as its to early and then I get charge for a new card, I didn't lose my card, cause of unauthorized transaction on Capitecs side, I must replace my card and then still get charge R70 for this, which now has left my account basically empty. A friend of mine had the same problem at another bank and her money was retrieved immediately back to her. Why does Capitec make us wait for so long for our own money. I want my money back in my account immediately. I am not happy at all about this!

This is the same response you send to all your bad reviews on Hello Peter, I have read them all and see I am not the only person that is having this issue with Capitec. Seems to be a thing with Capitec. I expect to hear from someone today and get my money back today as I can not live as I am now broke due to you allowing an unauthorized amount come off my account.

Absolutely the worst bank to deal with. Been a client for many years and I am extremely disappoint in the urgency they have to get my money back, absolutely no urgency. I am yet waiting for someone to contact me and when I phoned once again, all I get told it takes 30 days. Why the hell must I wait 30 days for my money that you allowed out my account with out authorization. I will be posting daily on Hello Peter regarding your service until I get my money back!! And then I will be closing my accounts and moving to any other bank as I sure they would deal with something like this in a more professional and effective way. Capitec has no care in the world about their clients and money.

STILL TODAY I AM WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO PHONE ME AND MY MONEY. HOW MANY TIMES DO I NEED TO POST HERE AND SCREAM AND SHOUT ON THE PHONE FOR SOMEONE TO ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. AND I BELIEVE ACCORDING TO FACEBOOK POSTS THERE ARE SOME MANY MORE LIKE ME, CLEARLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH CAPITEC WHERE PEOPLE'S MONEY IS GETTING ****** OUT THEIR ACCOUNTS WITHOUT THERE CONSENT AND NOTHING IS GETTING DONE ABOUT IT. CAPITEC DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ITS CLIENTS OR THEIR MONEY! WORST BANK.

I am still waiting for my money! The agent I spoke to yesterday on the phone which I had to phone assured me that my consultant dealing with my case will get back to me with feedback, and yet still nothing! Promises and promises and yet absolutely nothing! This is the worst service I have ever recieved! When am I getting my money back?? Or is Capitec going to ***** my money, that I have trusted for many years with my money??? I want answers!!!
