Promise not kept

Good day,

After I thought my issue was resolved, I am still facing the same issue. I was promised that the would be put on some kind of hold so I can catch up with the arrears and once that's done. I have to go through to the branch to have it closed or reactivate it.

We agreed I will pay R150 unntil I am caught up, but as uou can see I am still being charged the R69 overdraft fee :-(.

Please guys, I have been a customer for many years and the one time I am facing some financial difficulties this is how I get treated.

Please at least stick to your word not for Hello Peter review but for my sanity. Why make a promise you cannot keep :-(. I kept my end of the deal

I am not sure if it were Nomthandazo who called me that day or if it was somone else. Unfortunately I didn't get the name.

I sent an email to ********, and *** on the 1-October 2024 but to no avail.

Regards, Binta Kabwiz

No one has gotten back to me. I received an email that my case was closed as they tried calling me but could not get hold of me.
No replies to my emails, no missed calls.
All I want is for the promise to allow me to catch up with the arrears to be kept.

A week later and NO BODY FROM STANDARD BANK has either called me or emailed me with a way forward. This is not fair :-(

AGAIN, NO ONE FROM STANDARD BANK has bothered to call/ email or nay kind of communication.
Its seems this so called investigation is more complicated than a ******** case.
I kept my part of the deal, no one wants to help me resolve this matter. I am therefore not making payment as promised as well. Maybe then someone will bother to make contact.

If this is not a sign that my issue is just not being considered, then I really don;t know.
Dear Standard bank, I know I am just a drop in the ocean but I have been with this bank for so many years and honestly never did I imagine it will take over 3 months, broken promises to get this matter resolved.
Unbelievable is an understatement of the century. I will not be making any payment. I will and have record of all communications, Its' unfortunate I deleted the initial review on here as I thought my issue was resolved....

If only the same effort could be put in resolving my issue as it is in replying with the Standard bank "anthem" on Hello Peter...

Meanwhile my account keeps accumulating fees...

A whole month and some weeks, Standard bank is still investigating a case that's clearly more confusing than an average civil case... Thank God for all these proof of trying to out my matter to bed. I will not pay any additional fees.

Before you reply with your **** national anthem perhaps use that same energy to actually get someone to call me or send an email.
