****mers and ***** Masters

I’m so frustrated about how this bank has changed my life to be a living hell. I’m fuming of how this bank stole all my money in my account and stated that they aren’t liable a whole 250k everything go. What’s so frustrating is that no 1 is helping nor seem to have a clue how to help .I even escalated the matter to Ombudsman still no help at all. Don’t bank with them or you’ll end up like me.

Reviewer Update
All these transactions which went off are from Takealot.
When you explain to them that I never made a purchase nor did I make any transactions.

But their famous template of copy and paste that they aren’t liable is the most frustrating.
