Poor Service

Contacted the call centre to increase my limit on my credit card which I’ve had with SB for a few years now and have been asked to supply KYC documents in branch. Why now? These have already been supp**** upon application. And why through a branch when everything is done online these days? Now I’m expected to wait for hours at a branch to submit docs I’ve ALREADY provided.

Dear Justine

Fica develops a legal framework for effective client identification and verification, which must be followed by all financial institutions and updated every three years.

We recognize that this is inconvenient for our clients and can assure you that the bank is working to provide more efficient banking options.

Kind Regards
Standard Bank Hello Peter Team

Why in branch? I’ve never had another bank request this from me. I will be closing my account as I cannot go through this process every 3 years.

Hello Justine

This process is currently being facilitated at our branches due to the requirement for original documentation and online fingerprint verification.

Please visit the branch with your identification and proof of residency.

Can you confirm it’s sorted? I got a pvt message saying my profile is FICA compliant and then a public one saying it’s been raised.
