No answer to a simple question

Seriously, it's been a whole week since I sent an email enquiry asking a very simple question and yet there is no reply from Standard Bank! And don't tell me to call the customer care centre because the phones hardly ever get answered. Can someone just let me know whether a wire transfer from the US can be made into my existing savings account, and is there any additional details I need to send the person who is making the payment?

And yet, no reponse. All I need is an email confirming that a US payment can be transferred into my savings account!
