Problems with online systems at Standard Bank (as usual)

Why has Standard Bank still got so many issues with anything to do with it's online systems?

This morning I needed to send money urgently via Instant Money. Encountered problems using both the App and Internet Banking. I called the Help Center and they confirmed that Instant Money was not working properly.

Solution: Drive to an ATM - withdraw cash - deposit cash into my FNB account and send via eWallet.

Then my UCount Card card is expiring. So I log into UCount, go to my profile to order a replacement card, get my OTP, and then get an error "There was an error ordering your UCount Rewards Card, call the UCount Rewards Contact Centre".

Does nothing online work???

I can see why you stopped using "Simpler. Better. Faster.", but nothing is "Moving forward" either. You have actually gone back into the dark ages...

What does this "Official Reply" actually mean? All you have done is rep**** so that you can say that you "respond to all complaints posted", but you have actually said and done nothing! Typical corporate response: Lots of words that say nothing. How about answering this: 1) How long did it take you to fix the Instant Money problems this morning? Or is it still not working? 2) Why can't I renew an expired LOYALTY CARD online? What is the problem and when will it be fixed? How is that value of my loyalty being shown with a pathetic reply like the one above?
