HORIBLE SERVICE

On 25/07/2018 I transferred an amount of R1950.00 to acc number ********** 8758, one digit was entered incorrectly I was meant to send it to ( cousins account number). Immediately after i made the transfer I called my cousin to confirm the payment she didn't get it I check and realized I had made a mistake I called FNB to either reverse the transaction or place the funds on hold. I was not assisted. I was advised that they would investigate and get back to me. I have now received an email from FNB advising that the person has withdrawn the funds and they cannot do anything further to assist me.

• Why does your app allow you to insert an incorrect account number. CAPITEC does not allow you to proceed if the account number is incorrect or does not belong to the person whose name you have entered. • Why was the funds not immediately frozen as per my request? • Why was the reversal not done immediately?

Now FNB sends me the lady’s name and telephone number- saying I must contact her to make arrangements. Why can the R1950.00 Not be reversed forcing her account into a negative or assurance given that on her next salary date that it will be reversed back to me?

This is poor business practice and is also against the CPA, as a consumer I made a mistake however I asked the bank in good faith to enforce measures that would assist with the reversal of the funds.

I require a manager to contact me and not an email . my nr is ********** 697
