Poor communication across departments has led to customers suffering.

Visited the Standard Bank branch in Bedford Centre after receiving a notification that the FICA on my account was not compliant.

Had excellent door service even though it was a Friday afternoon; however having completed the FICA process on Friday, my account was frozen on Sunday due to being non-compliant!

I think that it is absolutely disgusting that the bank will freeze an account due to lack of KYC information when the client has gone out of their way to make sure they are KYC complaint.

A full working day after the "response" from Standard Bank and still no movement on this issue! I cannot that the incompetence of one of the bank's employees has led to MY accounts being frozen for over 2 full days.
