bank *****

<p>thousands of money drawn from my standard bank account and no sms notification for the transactions. 10000 was withdrawn from Bedfordview at 23:57 and at 00:01 another 10000, at 01:37 R3300 swiped at newscafe. I was in Polokwane with all my bank cards and no notification from standard bank or my banker. I only found at 5pm when I tried to transfer money and I get insufficient funds. Went to wonderpark branch and boom they show me online statement with this transactions. Cherry on top my contact number is changed on their system. Their ***** department promised to call me and three hours later no call. Standard bank ***** is ridiculous. I have been their client for ever and I have never done such transactions especially wee hours of the money and they do not give me courtesy call to check if transactions are legit. Also who changed my contact number and why? Alot of people are being de*****ed by this bank it should pay back our moneis and compensation for inconvinience and exposing us to ********** activities.</p>

I logged a ********** transaction quiery with Standard Bank yesterday 30-09-2016 around 6pm and the consultant Mpho never called me back as promised. This morning 1 October 2016 I had to que at wonderpark branch and they made me call ***** department who their consultant Prince could not say why they did not communicate with me and give me reference number to my case. They still cannot answer who changed my contact number on their system, why I didn't get notification of transactions and where the transactions were made. My transaction limits have aslo been increased and standard bank with no notification nor authorization from me. Prince says their turnaround time is 6 business days which will only start on Monday 3 October, in the mean time I'm financially crippled my life is put on hold because of standard bank security vulnerabilities and ***** system processes that seems to be easily manipulated hence no transaction notifications were not sent out. I'm am 100% confident this is not a first incident of this kind and they owe their clients compensation on exposing them to ***** and financial distress. I will not be liable for any bank charges related to thsee transactions.
