FNB has become the most useless bank.

I am absolutely appalled with the treatment i have recieved from FNB over the last 2 weeks. !st a company took off double the ususal debit order they should have, I phoned FNB and asked for them to reverse it. I called in the time frame allowed.I was very impolitely told that we cant because of covid 19. A virus doesnt stop you from protecting my bank account and reversing fruad when it is seen. That was the most ridiculous answer i have ever heard from a bank. During covid 19 is the response not supposed to be geared towrds the client who had money wrongfully with drawn from there account? I dont see the law that was passed that allows people to remove money from your account with out a right to have it reversed.

I have now noticed the same thing on my credit card. I deposited money in it on the 4th of may and now its gone, i have made 3 transactions and over 3 times that amount is missing from the card with no transaction. I phoned the credit card line, general message to phone back tomorrow. Than i phone the ***** department, i am worried some has my details to my accounts, i spoke to 4 separate individuals on 4 different calls. 1st person transferred me to the general enquirers line that is closed till 8am tomorrow. Thats great, transferring me to a closed department. 2nd person i phoned, after saying ***** does not deal with credit card *****, transferred me to the exact same ***** department. #rd person gave me a land line number to call and transferred me to yet another closed department. I called the land line number, just to the told the number does not exit. I called the ***** departmenet, admittidly exceptionally angry, all i wanted was help and was spoken to and treated like an ****hole. The last idiot, Mr laurence was his name, spoke to me like i have never been spoken to by any company employee, i do have a temper and still have never had some one talk and treat me in this manner. He proceed to argue with me about why i was upset, he refused to provide any details and refused to help me. His repsonse was if i cant tell him the exact amount and the time the transaction happened he could not help me. I phoned for help, if i knew those details i would not have called. I find this unacceptable, your fruad department is filled with people who simply do not care about their clients or the job they do. I will be closing my account based on this, if your employees cant take ***** seriously than why should i have to out up with it???????????????????????????????/

Subsequent to this i googled my account type and found there is a 24/7 premier banking hot line, well guess my definition and there definition of 24/7 are completely different. I understand its a lock down, but what sort of sorcery would fnb need to make the new call center times avalible to the public. Absolutely **** service from a supposed financial solution. Disgusting you think it is acceptable

The complaint was not logged. This is per your premier banking service, they also failed to log my complaint against the call center agent. I now have a recorded conversation of your call center agreeing with everything i said than arguing against there own statements. This has gone from absurd to ridiculous, i have had my credit card with you for 6 years, this is the first time i have had this. Please treat your clients with some respect absolutely disgusted.

Also why dont you phone me????????????? Cell C phones all hallo peter complaints, as does vodacom, standard bank and absa. Only FNB sends an email reply with incorrect statements.
