Refunds

I am extremely disappointed with both Capitec Bank and Amazon regarding a refund that has not reflected in my account since the end of September.

I made an order on Amazon and returned it. Amazon confirmed that the refund was processed successfully and even provided me with proof of payment and a Capitec reference number to track the transaction. Despite this, Capitec continues to tell me they “cannot trace incoming payments,” even though the reference number clearly shows the transaction was processed.

It has been over two weeks, and I have contacted both parties multiple times with no resolution. Capitec refuses to escalate the matter to their Payment Investigation Department, and I’m left stuck in between both companies while my money is unaccounted for.

I expected better communication and accountability from two major institutions. I just want this refund issue resolved urgently — it’s been far too long.

Please treat this as urgent and have someone from Capitec’s Payment Investigation or Disputes Department contact me directly.

I am very disappointed with how Capitec is handling my refund issue. Amazon processed my refund on 30 September 2025, but until today, it has not reflected in my account. I have contacted both Amazon and Capitec several times — Amazon confirmed that the refund was successfully processed and advised me to follow up with Capitec.

Capitec keeps giving me different answers, saying the money can’t go through because I paid from my savings account instead of my main account. This makes no sense, as the payment was made from that same account in the first place.

I’ve provided proof from Amazon, yet there’s still no proper feedback or resolution. I’m tired of being sent in circles. I expect Capitec to take responsibility, trace the transaction properly, and release my refund.

Please treat this matter with urgency.

I’m very disappointed with how Capitec is handling my refund issue. Amazon confirmed my refund of R100.32 was issued on 1 October 2025, yet Capitec shows it as received on 30 September 2025 — before Amazon even processed it.

When I called, they said they were investigating, but later just told me to “check my app.” This doesn’t make sense and makes me question whether my statement is being edited or backdated.

I need a proper written explanation, not empty responses. Please resolve this urgently and provide transparency.
