Doesn't help foreigners

<p>I opened an FNB account with the hope of using their ShareInvestor account. After I opened my account I then tried to register for Share Investing but I failed. The system said "We were unable to approve your application, due to some criteria not being met." I then contacted FNB and I have been pushed around for 3-4 weeks with no solution. I only got an email response saying your issue has been escalated this was 3 weeks ago. When I asked one of their personnel over the phone what the criteria was he asked me if I had a passport and said I could not register because I am not South African.</p>
