FNB *****ing interest from unsuspecting clients

<p>A friend deposited a cheque in my account and the money has already gone off their account, but according to FNB Business call centre, it will only be available in 10 working days. I asked for special clearance but they say it can only be done by the depositer. This is ludicrous !!! If the money has already gone off their account, where is that money lying accruing interest ? It's 2016, surely clearance should be done within 24 hours. SA banks are a total ripoff, *******.</p>
