Overdraft funds not being released

On Tuesday the 28th I did an application for an overdraft and was approved and accepted the offer. So on Thursday morning I phoned to find out when the funds will be released. Nobody could tell me and it was "escalated". Thursday afternoon I phoned again. No help but "escalated" again. And twice it was "escalated on Friday the first of December 2023. So today is saterday the 02 December.

No documentation is outstanding. Standard bank is just not releasing funds

Okay it's official. Standard banks telephonic support is useless. Nobody knows what they are doing.

These responses on hellopeter are automated and not real ppl.

I've been struggling since the 28th Nov to get my overdraft funds released. It's been escalated 8 times. Apparently nothing is outstanding but nobody can tell me why the funds are not being released.

This is excellent service from standard bank

So another day has come to an end with no resolution. Today standard bank gave me two missed calls. Both rang 1 second. Couldn't even get my phone out of my pocket before they stopped phoning.

I give up.
