Terrible Service and *********** staff

I am so disappointed at Bidvest bank consultants it’s not funny, today I’m actually frustrated with them. There was a ********** activity in my account and my account was stopped. An investigation went on and resolved and last week I called Bidvest to ask if I need a new card I was told to go to an old mutual branch to confirm that, I was puzzled why old mutual but I went there anyway and did not get assisted. Today I call the call centre again to find out what I need to do because I really need my card and I am travelling so I obviously need to use it at the airport and I was advised I need to go to a Bidvest branch and a Nhlamululo was assisting me, he then cancelled my card without my authorisation or knowledge, I then drove 58km to Sandton City only to be told I cannot be assisted because I only had my driver’s license and my card was opened online. So now I am without a card and stranded, the call centre people are so useless they cannot advise clients properly as to what to do or what will be needed at the branch worst of all who said they must cancel my card? Now I am told I must wait 3-7 days for a new card to be delivered I DO NOT HAVE 3-7 days to be without a card I don’t understand how this bank is I am ready to leave the bank because I am stuck now I cannot even make any online purchases nothing!

The team leaders are just as useless, what annoys me is that they cannot acknowledge the mistake the consultant made and offer resolution. I’m so sick of them

My matter has since not been resolved. I was told my card was unsuspended and ready for use but it wasn’t where I am there’s not even a bidvest bank branch. When I was at the bidvest bank branch I was told to call virtual branch when I call virtual branch I’m being transferred from one consultant to another and takes too attend my call and when they finally do now I’m told that’s not the procedure to follow I must send a request, what on earth is going on with bidvest???? I am honestly annoyed and this is infuriating to say the least it’s so disappointing for such a big bank. I must fly back today I can’t even go to the slow lounge.

I am really at the verge of cancelling this card altogether cause in any case it was cancelled by one of your consultants without my authorisation.
