Unhelpful and disinterested

<p>I tried to open a Capitec bank account this morning at the Nigel branch. Their system could not verify my finger prints and I was sent with a letter to Home Affairs for verification. Two hours later Home Affairs sends me back with a written verification confirmation. Capitec refuses to accept it and I'm told I can't open an account. Nigel branch is obviously not in need of any new client's and customer service is non existent. I will not recommend this bank to anyone.</p>
