Card Division = Non-Existent

My credit and cheque cards are expiring within the next few days. I've been trying to contact the "card division", with no luck. There is no card division tel.nr available on any website. So, I tried several other "customer care" numbers. The numbers are answered, I select the correct options, told I'm next in line, and then the call dropped. Today someone called, advising they want to deliver the cards, but I first have to provide my full names, ID number, address, postal address, existing card numbers. This sounded very suspicious and not like a company who would deliver my card (as they claimed). When I questioned giving all this info, I was told to then "go without a card or go to a branch" and call dropped. Tried calling the number back, but not in use - so I think my suspicious was right.....this was not a courier company trying to arrange a delivery. However, the replacement cards-issue still not resolved. I just spent another hour on the phone trying to get through to you, but the same thing happens, no matter what number I dial..... in the queue till you followed all the prompts and the line then dropped. Who on earth can assist me to get the new replacement cards? My cards are expiring in October 2022. This is URGENT please

Hi Standardbank, with regards to the above complaint. I'm really disappointed :-(
It has now been 2 business days later and still nobody has contacted me. I now officially have only 10days left to use my bank cards. What will I then do???

I'm really shocked at how this thing has now escalated. Nobody has even attempted to contact me. This morning I received a notification on my computer that my anti-virus software has now expired because they could not do the "automatic renewal" as my credit card details is no longer valid.
Are you really not going to do anything?? You keep giving feedback that you are working on the problem and will prioritize the issue, but you clearly are making these comments to create the illusion of you acting on a problem.... I'm speechless!! Reported this on 15 September (after spending 2 days to try and phone anyone).
So, if you are trying to force me to go to a branch....... then I guess I'll have to close my account, as I can't go to a branch. I live 14kms from the closest branch, and I have no transport at this point....... and let's not forget that a branch can also do NOTHING. They just put you in a cubicle and tell you to phone the same numbers I've been trying to call - this happened to my husband a few months ago when he tried to get a new card

I received an e-mail from Thabisile Nxumalo to advise that she can't get hold of me - even though my phone is constantly next to me, as I need this issue resolved. This was on Monday - I immediately rep**** to the e-mail, and have since sent her 2 e-mails again, but as before, I'm being ignored. I really can't believe that this is the bank I've been with for so long :-(
You really are treating me like some piece of garbage!!
