Direct axis are not humans and have a don't care attitude!

After my first complaint on this platform, I got a reply that they are working with South African reserve Bank to find solutions to help customers during this pandemic and that an agent will be call me. Firstly you don't need to find a solution, all you have to do is extend our contracts to help us with payment relief like what all the other banks did. Why is that so hard? You still going to get your damn money! No agent contacted me yet and my installment is due next week! Direct axis never went the extra mile to help customers during this difficult time yet I am a loyal payer and this is my second time using their loan facilities. I will never ever use their loan service again or recommend it, I will also take it to social media and make sure nobody else be fooled by them.

Unfortunately, I did try and go through the necessary channels by emailing the relevant department but no response and no agent has called yet! Extremely poor service! What is the point having all these options but it is not being processed?

I did apply but they want an unemployment letter, which I do not have as explained via emails to direct axis! My husband is the one who lost his job. and this has affected our household income, he helped pay for the installments

I tried to call direct axis back but they still insisting on only helping me if I am unemployed!? Direct axis and fnb is the only financial institution that is insisting on this, yes I am employed but without my husband salary I cannot afford to pay, direct axis still deducted the installment at end of April despite so many attempts to them for help, now we are left with no money to run our house or for food cos that money went for the installment! It's not like I won't be able to pay for the payment holiday back, why can't direct axis extend our contracts like what others are doing?
