Worst service ever experienced, wait 4 months for a dispute outcome. Then just to find out that they closed the dispute without any communication at all. Really pathetic from a financial institution

Hey Gerrit

Thanks so much for confirming.

Two emails were sent, one on 13/05/2025, and the other on 16/07/2025.
These were sent to the primary email address that we would have on your profile at that particular time, I see the email address for the first mail is different to your current and second email. I have sent you a private message of both emails.

To confirm your email address please go to "More" and check under your info and settings.

Kind regards,
Mpho.

Hey Gerrit

Let me check if the team can re-open the case, or we would need to log a new case.

Kind regards,
Mpho.

Hi Gerrit

Due to no response to the email the case was closed as on our side the emails show that they have gone through successfully.

Please kindly contact the merchant for a refund.

Kind regards,
Mpho.

Mpho this is the problem!!! I waited 3 months for a response, I never got one. Now you asking me to wait another 3 months. For a banking institution to ask me to wait again is very bad, irrespective of any email sent. I have been a client for a very long time a call could’ve sufficed. If you need to log it again you can do so however my fear is that the same thing will happen. Absolutely no accountability

Hi Gerrit

Did you receive the email that was sent on 16 July 2025 advising that the case will be closed due to no response of the email before?

Kind regards,

Hi Gerrit

Please respond on that email, advise the team that you never received the email that was requesting further details, and ask which details the team requires to continue with the dispute.

Kind regards,
Mpho.
