Gross dishonest customer service

On the 18th of August I called Capitec to request them to reverse an unauthorized debit with a merchant that I had canceled with. I spoke to a Consultant by the name of Busisiwe Zulu and I even emailed written confirmation of the cancelation.

On the 22nd August I received a call from someone to whom the issue had been escalated to and she said that she needs to investigate the matter and asked me if there was a written cancelation. I was irritated by this because I had already sent the proof on the 18th to Busi. She said that she would send me a WhatsApp where I should resubmit this proof. I waited for this WhatsApp for a couple of hours and instead I received an email and sms that informed me that the matter was being closed because they couldn't get hold of me. I immediately responded with a call and an email for the matter to be resolved fairly as I had spoken to their representative. To this end Capitec has clearly ignored my email. This is shows a lack of customer service, no integrity and no regard for their customers financial safety.

I would like to extend my gratitude to Madeleine Kaltwasser from the Complaints Management Office for her prompt and excellent service in handling this Complainant. She was professional, kept me updated from the day I logged this complaint and today the matter was resolved. Over and above the email and sms from the bank, Madeline also followed up and confirmed with a call. This is excellent service and it deserves to be recognized. Thank you Madeleine.
