Balances being reduced to zero when offline
I'm sooo annoyed. Frustrated and disappointed by Standard Bank,
I moved from FNB to Standard about 3 years ago and iv never had any issues but over the weekend I had a truly alarming, frightening and terrible experience that truly got me considering to move back to fnb or another bank because i never experienced this in my 17 years of banking, i went out Saturday night, i was at a club and i had an open tab,about 2am the Sunday morning the waiter brought my bill and it was time for me to pay and leave, when i swiped the transaction declined stating "insufficient funds" when I logged onto my banking app it was showing as offline with limited functions ,my heart dropped as the balances on my savings plus investments was showing as R0.00,(I have Screenshots) the owner of the club wanted to call the police on me as I couldn't pay the bill as they thought I made purchasing without funds, the locked me in a room wanting to call the polices,I had to call my brother to wake up from bed and drive out to swipe with me, 1stly iv never experienced such a terrible ,the fact that my balances can easily reflect as nil, thirdly you don't send any communications in which I could have shown the business owner thar my bank is currently offline,instead the speedboat receipts were stating insufficient funds, and till now we have not received any communication like sms or email apologizing for being offline,I was truly embarrassed and scared. I understand banks go offline,but never does it reduce our balances to zero which is so incorrect
