How save is your money with Standard Bank?

Standard Bank must be the worst bank when it comes to resolving an issue

12 September 2023 there was an unauthorized transaction (R2800) debited from my business current account for Google ADS. I immediately stopped my card and called Standard Bank.

1. There is a 6 day turnaround time for any matters like this 2. Standard bank dont call you back 3. I receive an sms daily informing me that the card ***** claim is on hold due to uncleared transactions. This is not time the transaction cleared in my account 15 September 2023

How safe is our money with Standard Bank?

I have transaction on my account that I dont know what it is for. Lots of small transaction??

R1.80 x 5 times for !Fee-E-COMS R78.81 #International R5.00 x 5 Google*ADS

So today is day 6 not even a call from Standard Bank. I called the call centre and spoke to a Chantel (who is not obligated to give her surname) who once again just said the matter will be referred to an investigator.

How safe is Standard Bank. Money goes missing and they refuse to help you.
Then you speak to unhelpful consultant who refuse to give you her surname

DAY 8

Called the call centre yesterday afternoon (24 minutes on hold) and once again the call center could not give me feedback.

An email was sent to the investigator AGAIN.

I get an sms every morning informing me that the funds are not cleared and therefore the matter is on hold. In fact the funds were cleaner a week ago!!!!!

If I send an email to query*****@standardbank.co.za I get an automated response

We are not using this business account because we dont know why funds were taken from my account. We are now forced to open a business account with another bank, This is so inconvenient

Day 9

Instead of getting an automated response from query*****@standardbank.co.za they actually rep**** (after 8 days) saying that a ***** investigator tried to call. Once again a LIE!!!! Nobody called me

Send all the information to *** and guest what again no reply, no call and no assistance.

Well and this platform is obviously also not helping to resolve this. NOBODY want to take ownership

Almost at the end of day 9 and not even surprised that I did not get a call from anyone. I will be referring this matter to the ombudsman for banking as Standard Bank just refuses to assist clients.
