FNB useless

My son went to New Zealand two weeks ago, before he went we phoned FNB so that his account and everything an work abroad. He is there for a week and everything stopped working, we are trying for a week now to get FNB to activate his account so that my son can buy food, water, airtime and pay for his accommodation. FNB staff are working remotely and you can’t even speak to a manager, they just simply cant help you because you are the father and not the account holder, but the damn account holder is in another country where the time is different.They Eventually send forms that he had to fill out and send back but now we are back to square one, they say it will take 24-48 hours but it’s been a week and every time he phones them they say it takes time. Well time doesn’t stand still and humans need to eat and survive and for that you need money. Whats the use off having a bank account and you cant use it. It’s your freaking money and you cant access it. FNB should have a good look at their staff working remotely, they are pulling down the company, in today’s world you need a floor Managers that can keep an eye on staff.

***!!!!!They reply privately saying that they will get back to me 24-48 hours…. And in the meantime my sons accommodation has been canceled because his card doesn’t work. Thank you FNB for giving us sleepless nights

Thank you very much to Shania Jansen @Table Bay mall for helping us sort out the problem on our son’s account while being abroad. We were battling with this for more than a week and got no where with the online team. We where send up and down up and down with no success at all and each time needing to speak to a different person and explaining the situation each time from beginning!! Shania really went out of her way to help us and did great following up with us each time. She really is great at all level of skills and problem solving. We hope management sees this and helps her with her future plans within FNB. The VD Walt Family.
