FNB ***** DEPARTMENT

On 18 Nov 2023 I reported a ***** case because there were ******* deductions on my savings account. Case No. ***. Because it is a savings account that only receives a deposit once a month, I have not used a bank card on this account since November 2022. I personally destroyed the bank card. Apart from the case I reported, there are still several transactions going through on my account. I re-reported it every time. The bank card was blocked by the bank on 18 November 2023. On the 22nd of November 2023, I called FNB ***** again with new transactions deducted. Part of the money, *******ly deducted, has already been refunded, but I had to pay R120 bank charges on it for transactions that were NOT done by myself. Since then, there are still transactions going through on the account. I went to FNB in person on Monday 27 November to report the new transactions. The lady at the bank called the ***** department from a phone (in the bank). I waited about 25 minutes to be transferred to the department that handles the case. Afterwards I gave up and hung up. Got back home, I called the ***** Tel number again. Again, they put me through to the "person" handling the case. I kept on hold for exactly 75min (more than 1 hour – again My money, MY time), and hung up again because no one answered. This morning, November 28, 2023, I called again, only to hear again that I was being transferred to the "person" who works with the case. After 45 minutes on hold, I hung up the phone once again. I went onto the FNB App, used Secure Chat, and AGAIN couldn't be helped - due to "no communication", where I kept replying (evidence on chat). Now I ask, please how can I handle this matter further? I get no response from FNB ***** department. What worries me is that my deposit is paid in again at the end of the month, once again the *****sters are going to use my money because the account is once again in a minus amount. • My question is, why should I protect myself from *****sters if it is out of my control? • Why do I have to pay bank charges for transactions I didn't do? • How will these transactions be stopped on my account? • Why is there no feedback on Secure Chat? This is a savings account that is NOT supposed to go into the red. This is a big concern. Is FNB making money from these *****ulent transactions? Why does no one answer the phone when you have to report every ******* transaction? I don't know how many other FNB clients are going through the same problem, but it cannot go on like this. Therefore, I’m posting on Hello Peter!!!

Reviewer Update
NO feedback from FNB whatsoever. Someone "as stated in there reply to me" should have contacted me regarding my case. This morning my money was deposited into my account and AGAIN this overdue money was all deducted from MY account. Again I am now going to pay bank charges on these transactions. as I am getting NO feedback from FNB, an email has now been forwarded to the Banking Ombudsman. I hope other clients don't struggle with the same. I am now tired of fighting for my own money, the ombudsman should take the case further. FNB is in the process of going downhill in their ***** department.
