Inward International Payment

To Whom it may concern

I am writing this out of sheer frustration as I am currently unable to access funds sent to me from abroad. I received an official SMS from Standard Bank on Monday notifying me of a pending international payment that I need to accept within 30 days.However everytime I try to access the International Payments/Inward Transfers section I am blocked by a continuos technical error message stating "Something went wrong.We couldn't display your payment details right now.Please try again. Following instructions in the SMS I sent an email with my account details to *** at 11:45 on Tuesday,I received an email with a reference number The 30 day countdown to accept the funds is running and I am deeply concerned that the money will be automatically reversed to the sender because of a technical system glitch from Standard Bank. I urgently request that someone from ITT contacts me directly via email/telephone to process this BoP manually and release my funds.

Thank you

Left on hold indefinitely after the Bank called me a few minutes ago regarding my complaint.

I was told to hold for the Forex Department and a few days ago I was told that Department does not have a line.My original issue remains completely unresolved.It is unacceptable for customer service to initiate a callback only to waste my time in an endless hold loop.
