FNB Paypal Disaster

My name is Nicolette Dirk and I do not understand why FNB is the only bank that can assist with paypal as your online banking and customer service is pathetic. I created an online FNB account to get access to my paypal acc. since 16 October 2020 with no results. I have sent off documents, I have physically gone into the FNB Tygervalley on 23 Oct and was told by a gentleman from customer service i would be able to make a withdrawal in the next 48 hours. This was after he had spoken telephonically to someone from FNB paypal. On 2 november this has still not happened and FNB is now sending random emails about documentation WHICH I HAVE PROVIDED ON 23October. Either FNB staff is not trained to assist with paypal or its a matter of UTTER bad customer service which I think I should write about to a consumer journalist. I only opened an online acc to access Paypal as I am a standard bank client. I even considered moving to FNB but not after this experience .I will earnestly contact my media contacts to write a story about this and make SA consumers aware of FNB's incompetence!

Reviewer Update
Good day,
After sending all required documents to an FNB team leam leader, I am no further to getting this matter resolved as when I sent this complaint. My account is still pending and I still cannot access the funds in paypal. I no longer believe FNB staff when they say this simple issue can be solved at this point as I have been dissapointed too many times. I will unfortunately have to escalate this to the media's attention to see if FNB will treat customer queries more urgently if your bad services are exposed.
