Unacceptable -Not easy as advertised
I’ve Had a terrible experience applying for a Makro Credit Carr a process I was assured would be easy I texted my ID no through to 44514. I was then sent the link https://m.rcs.co.za/mobi/campaigns/card/makro/makro?utm_source=radio_stations&utm_medium=radio_ad&utm_campaign=makro_ad&utm_term=makro_credit&utm_content=december_ad To fill in my details I was approved and advised to take my bank statements in store, I went Saturday morning to your Strubensvalley branch and handed in the documents. The lady there told me I would receive an sms when to collect my card. Sunday morning I called to query what was happening with my application and I was told they couldn’t find it on the system I called the lady I provided the forms to and she advised the same.
Can someone please assist me with this matter with a sense of urgency

Let me explain the situation here my husband and I share a joint bank account as I work for him and I made sure to provide a letter from my personal banker stating I have full authority over the account. I was then told this is not accepted. Joint accounts are not accepted which is baffling because nowhere in the terms and conditions does it state joint accounts aren’t accepted. I don’t receive a pay slip as it makes no sense for to have issue myself invoices for each and everything thing I do for my husband business and my mother salary I receive from him. I was advised I can open a bank account in my name and then I would be approved but that’s senseless because I’d have to wait 3 months in order to make constant deposits to the account and I wanted the credit at this very moment.
I’m failing to understand why a joint account is unacceptable since I am able to authorize debit orders etc on the account hence I had my private banker provide you with a letter stating this.
I refuse to accept this and I expect this matter to be escalated to higher management. Being told that “We don’t accept joint accounts” or else you would be approved is unacceptable. Again I will say no where in any of the terms and conditions does it state Joint accounts are not accepted. So I need higher management to look over this immediately and get back to me with feedback
