FFRAAUDDD Investigation completed/No Report

I lodged a FFFRRRAAAUUUDDD complaint through my bank (Standard Bank) (almost a month ago) after I was SSSCCCAAAMMMEEEDDD by a f**** online retail store.

It's been a week now since I received a text message from standard bank on my phone (just 1 text message, no phone calls, no emails). The text message said that the result of the investigation has been sent to my email address - this was a week ago, but I haven't received any email with the report from the investigation (and I am getting charged for this investigation)!! I have made 4 phone calls so far, trying to find out why I haven't received the report yet. If someone from Standard Bank is reading this, please note that I don't have to tell you that this is bad customer service (Im sure you know it).

Reviewer Update
Absolutely not!!! this matter was not resolved to my satisfaction and I indicated my dissatisfaction over the phone to the lady who called me. For some reason, she just offered her apologies for my misery and that was the end of the story - Standard bank is my bank, but the ****ty/shoddy attitude that the bank ***** Unit officials handled this matter is shocking.

I called the Banking Ombudsman Office and I was to go back to Standard Bank to express my dissatisfaction with the outcome of the ***** investigation, and that Standard bank (as my bank) needs to take this up with FNB on my Behalf.

So this is my request to Standard Bank: PLEASE ACT AS MY BANK IS SUPPOSED TO ACT, IN MY INTERESTS, IN THIS MATTER.

PLEASE CONVEY TO FNB, ON MY BEHALF, TO INDICATE THAT I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THE OUTCOME OF THE ***** INVESTIGATION AND THAT I WOULD LIKE TO LOG A COMPLAINT AND A DISPUTE AGAINST THE OUTCOME OF THEIR ***** INVESTIGATION.


I WAS ADVISED TO COME BANK TO THE BANKING OMBUNDSMAN IF I'm NOT HAPPY WITH THIS DISPUTE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO LOG WITH MY BANK (STANDARD BANK NOW.
