FNB will give your number to DEBTBUSTERS after you take a loan.

I took a temporary loan of R700 from FNB last week and the VERY NEXT morning I received an SMS reading "Hi Trevor! Another loan is not the answer. Consolidate with debtbusters bla bla bla bla bla" I DID NOT GIVE THIS NEW FNB NUMBER TO ANYONE!!! FNB, why are you giving my number to debt consolidation people within 24 hours of approving my temporary loan? I want answers HERE!!! In public, don't hide your response. If you hide your response I'll just open another complaint AND complain on other platforms. I just want straight answers here and now, don't email me, just answer me here please. FNB, I did not give you permission to give my number to anyone.

They can't answer a simple question. Why was my number given to debtbusters the same day I took a 700 Rand loan? And how will FNB make sure not to give my number out?
I'm on the "Opt Out Service" so now I will see what I must do to take legal action.

As I said, FNB is the only one who has this new number of mine, so now you're calling me a ****.
Whoever set up my business bank account added ALL MARKETING on my profile, so I removed that now thanks to your instructions above.
What personal information is there above that you could not message me here on hellopeter? nothing, you guys just want to hide all the problems.

In conclusion:
FNB gave my number to debtbusters on the SAME DAY that I took a R700 loan... The SMS said "Another LOAN is NOT the answer..... bla bla bla." Whoever set up my business account added all marketing options to it without asking me" FNB does not answer customers on hellopeter because they are ashamed of themselves, then they use the "we can't disclose personal info on hellopeter" even when there is no personal info required in their response.

Good day,Pointing the finger at me saying that I must have given my number to other companies is not the way to handle your customer.

I already told you that FNB is the only one with this new number, and it's true.

Whoever set up my business account switched on ALL MARKETING, without asking me anything.So yes, it was FNB that gave my number to debtbusters on the same day I took a R700 loan.

Thanks to your steps, I've switched all marketing off with my business account as well now, not that I asked for it in the first place.This could have been handled far more politely and without any blame put on me, since I actually was NOT to blame for this. I was not asked about marketing preferences during the business account set up, your colleague just put everything on without asking.

Anyway, marketing preferences are updated in the business account so let's see what happens.
Thanks for the instructions but I did not appreciate you telling me that I gave my number to other places after I said that I did not.

I hope you have a great day and learn how to handle customers politely without accusing them of things they did not do.

You could have sent the above instructions WITHOUT saying that I gave my number to other companies.
Good luck to you.
