FNB refusing to reverse erroneous debit order by service provider

In the past FNB has been very good at allowing clients to dispute unfair or erroneous or *****ulent debit orders. I had a debit order due on the 1st of the month go through on the 23rd of February 2024, a whole 7 days too early. Not a big problem because errors happen. The problem is that FNB is refusing to allow me to reverse the debit order yet the acknowledge that the debit went too early. I spoke to Kabelo in debit order reversals and he said I can not reverse this debit order because it is blocked by the same service provider who got it wrong. So these service providers have special privileges to stop us from correcting their errors even if we have documented proof that the debit order is erroneous. This is just so wrong.....my service provider confirmed that they made an error I have evidence of that too. But they will take 8 days to fix it, I do not have that long. I need the reversal now. But FNB won't allow it.

This is not helpful because the erroneous debit on my account was done on Friday, today is middy Monday. I could have provided the email evidence from the service provider where they acknowledge the error all I need is to have the reversal done now please. Why do you block debit your clients from disputing errors the least you could do is ask for evidence that it I erroneous and what better proof than an email directly from the service provider acknowledging their error? It does not make sense and it is a huge problem.

I would like to change my FNB review from 1 star to 5 stars. I just got a call from an intelligent service consultant. He has sorted the problem and it took him less than a minute to hear my problem and provide an immediate solution, just thinking on his feet, with excellent listening skills to understand the problem and craft a working solution that he deployed before the end of the call. The call was just short, sharp and sweet. This is the FNB I know. This is what I am accustomed to at FNB. All this could have been done on Friday if I had been originally served by this intelligent and excellent specimen of a gentleman. Very impressive.
