FNB Wasting my time

Dear FNB,

I’m extremely disappointed with the service I’ve received from you lately. I expected better, especially after upgrading my account.

After the account upgrade, I was informed that I would be issued a new card and that a courier would contact me to arrange delivery.

The courier did call to confirm the details and assured me the card would be delivered within three days.

For three consecutive days, I received a message on my FNB App each morning stating the card would be delivered that day.

Each day ended with no delivery, followed by another message postponing it to the next day.

As of today, I still have not received my card.

To make matters worse, I’ve now received a message on the app stating that I "missed" the delivery. This is completely inaccurate. What is going on between FNB and DSV? My time is being wasted and my patience tested.

Additionally, I attempted to take out Life Insurance with FNB, but that process has also been extremely frustrating:

I was told a medical would be required and that a nurse would contact me.

The first nurse called but informed me she was in Johannesburg, while I’m not based there.

A second nurse called and, again, she was not near my location either.

Eventually, someone contacted me and told me I needed to print out a form and go for lab tests. I still haven’t received that form.

At this point, I am no longer interested in the Life Insurance. If this is how difficult it is just to get the policy started, I shudder to think how my loved ones would be treated in the unfortunate event of a claim.

I hope this feedback is taken seriously and used to improve your processes, because right now, your service is falling far short of expectations.

On 06 August, I received a call from DSV to schedule the delivery of my card, and we agreed on Monday, 11 August.

Shortly afterward, another person from DSV called, claiming that I had informed the previous person that I was unavailable on 07 August and had requested delivery for that date instead. This is completely false, and I made no such statement.

Despite the confusion, delivery was rescheduled for after 12:00 on 07 August. Today, I received a notification that DSV would be calling to make arrangements, followed just 7 minutes later by another notification saying the card would be delivered today. It is now 17:00, and there has been no delivery, no call, and no explanation.

At this point, I am no longer willing to waste my time sitting around waiting for a delivery that may or may not happen. Please revert my account to the previous package and keep the card. I am done playing these games and being treated like this.

Kindly confirm once this has been actioned.

DSV did call at 5pm telling me that the driver was dispatched late today and they cannot deliver. They wanted to schedule another day, but cannot tell me when as it needs to be confirmed with the person working out the routes. I have informed them to send the card back to FNB. I am no longer interested in this nonsense and bad service.

Hi Thabo,
Please can you revert my account back as it was before. Once again, DSV did not deliver... We had an appointment for 11 am to 2pm today and they are a no show. I can't keep doing this....
