SANLAM MONEYSAVER CREDIT CARD FIASCO

Been a Sanlam customer for many , many years . My case is about my Money saver Credit card , Travelling in Thailand @ the moment , did notify Sanlam well in advance. My card were fine , then 11/7 I receive an email from Sanlam that 12- 14/7 the system will be down . The system is still down , granted I received two calls from a very kind & gentle guy - HOWEVER I cannot use my card . Just spoke to Lusiswe at the call centre , she apologised but couldn't help me either . She said the migration has not been finalised & her team leader wasn't available - didn't bother to call me back. So I'm totally in the dark , not a great experience to think you have money & all of a sudden you don't have . Maybe one of the decisionmakers can assist myself , phone call , email etc.

One Example of Sanlam High Quality Customer Service :🤣🤣🤣
Email sent by myself to Sanlam 18/7/22. Received an response by 25/7/22 .
One week to respond .
Big difference between respond & resolve .

No Use of Credit Card - Notification received 6/7/22: 🤣🤣🤣
Message clearly state all will be resolve by Mid July '22 .
Today 26/7/22 still no solution. I cannot use my credit card.

Loan Application : 🤣🤣🤣
Various adverts that I qualify for a loan , app**** for 60k loan for study purposes . The CSA congratulate me for provisionally being approved . Next day , you don't qualify .
I requested reasons : CSA says because I don't reside in SA- You have all my FICA information in your system , I reside in SA .

I would seriously advise current & potential Sanlam customers to review their interaction with Sanlam

Good day Arno

The email sent to you was to confirm that you can transact with the card.  They are requesting feedback as to whether you have been able to use it.  Judging by your feedback here we assume you are not able to use the card?  Please respond to the email that was sent to you if you have not done so already so that this can be sorted.

Hello Sanlam , no response from your Credit card division , not even a response on Hello Peter.
My card is not functional . You will probably have the audacity to charge me card fees etc . Will not be paid , I promise you .

Message to current & potential Sanlam Customers , Sanlam is ok , just ok , with Life Insurance , for the rest they are an absolute joke & a laugh a minute . The one hand doesn't know what the other hand is doing , so unprofessional , staff poorly trained , staff not empowered , decisionmakers missing in action. Read the fine print , what you see is not what you get . I have all the emails as proof that Sanlam is a dysfunctional business . Be sure to shop around , as you can do much better than Sanlam.
