FNB english bank statements
I have seen multiple similar complaints previously : I need to apply for a VISA and need 3 months bank statements, but FNB is only ably to give it to me in Afrikaans. I have a premier bank account. Firstly, I've been trying to call FNB using the premier call number. After waiting for more than 10 minutes on 3 occasions, I've given up. Today I finally got through, but the lady was very unhelpful. I asked her how I can get a 3 month bank statement in english for application of a visa. She told me it is impossible and said sorry. But how can this be? Does that mean my life is placed on hold for 3 months because my bank can't give me a statement in english? The lady could not get a supervisor on the line either.
Also, I've been emailing FNB for weeks with no response. How is that acceptable?
The FNB app is glitchy. I could not download any statements from there. It keeps on loading over and over again. The website is also glitchy. I would like to understand how a bank like FNB is so difficult to communicate with? How is a bank in 2019 not able to give you an english bank statement? This has been a problem for years, why are they not doing anything about it?
BUT why was it necessary for me to go through all of that trouble before receiving proper customer service? Is this the norm?
Also my mother is with ABSA and prefers her bank statements in Afrikaans, but needed an English one for a Visa. She simply went to the bank and they printed it out for her. Why is this not possible with FNB?
Please work on this problem? I love FNB and still think it offers much more than other banks!
