FNB Error 99999 Account blocked, frozen

Gone to my profile, both on the app and on desktop and my account was frozen. Not able to do payments. Not allowed to play the Lotto, nothing. Error 99999 Transaction unsuccessful. Available Balance in the thousands, not able to pay R20 for the Lotto or making a payment for R 100. Pathetic bank. I am glad I am using other banks and in the process to close all still active accounts.

As usual, all they do is to send you a mail with a REF number. 5 Days to get an answer max.
I don't care; I need my account unfrozen now!
They say has to do with Tax information. They were submitted months ago when asked and same for the last 20 years.
Same SARS number for the last 40 years... pathetic.

Over 25 minutes on the phone and only music in my ear calling the supposed Tax desk as suggested by secure chat. No reply, only music, and my account is still frozen. Useless bunch of *******.

As usual your reply is a total nonsense and my issue persists. I lost R50 in phone calls as music is the only reply you have when I contact you. Pathetic.

Another day in Hell with FNB.
3 hours after sending them the Self Tax Certifications, with the same TAX info they had for the last 20 years, I am still waiting for my account to be unfrozen.
