Most useless bank

I absolutely hate this bank. I have been banking with them for literally my whole life, and they have my entire portfolio. I have recently moved to RMB, and the level of service is not even comparable. This move was the best decision ever.

I am now struggling with one of my Standard Bank Home Loan debit orders. All of my debit orders are going off my RMB account, except for the one home loan. I have today phoned for the 3rd time to speak to a Standard Bank private banker, to load my debit order. It hasn't been deducted for 3 months now, and I constantly need to make manual payments to avoid it going in arrears. This is extremely frustrating and infuriating.

Every time I phone Standard Bank they advise that everything is now correct and it will be debited, but nothing happens. I then need to phone again and make a manual payment. How long is this going to continue? I am the one paying extra interest as my payments are continuously late.

I have dealt with Aubrey on the last phone call and he has no clue what is going on. Reference number ***.

They are absolutely useless, and I can't wait for the day that I have no more products with Standard Bank.

I really do not recommend this bank to anyone.

Still no contact from anyone at Standard Bank except for the template reply above, and they have not resolved anything.. Shows me that they don't care.
