********* bank

Standard Bank has upgraded my credit card without my permission in fact after I emphatically said no more than 3 times...( this is not legal). This is after I went in and sat in a queue three times for over 2 hours trying to sort out why my payments were not reflecting, only to see that my account details were changed due to the upgrade I did not request. I asked them to downgrade me and I see today, after almost 6 months, this in not been done. ,I am now paying more in bank charges than I owe , and as a result, I can not close my account as it keeps reflecting bank charges at the time I want to close it. You have to have a zero balance when you close it so it comes down to a timing thing like SABC once you are there, you are stuck for life... the worst customer service and incompetence I have ever come across.
