REALLY bad service

My Husband has had an account with the Standard Bank for more than 20 years, and recently went into the Branch at Greenstone to purchase a Foreign Exchange Debit Card for our trip overseas. Everything was absolutely great until he checked his Credit Card statement, on top of charging him a Commission Fee and Activation Fee for the Foreign Debit Card, they have also charged him a "Branch Cash Advance" fee. When he questioned this they said... "It's standard practice"... He has now paid more than 5,5% in Fees to the Bank... This is UNACCEPTABLE!!! Most especially has he was NOT told about the Cash Advance Fee whilst in the Branch!!!

A Consultant phoned on 13th November to try and sort this out, the lady was then going on leave until the16th November and promised to contact my Husband on her return on Monday 20th November. Today is the 24th November, and STILL no contact... This is truly NOT GOOD ENOUIGH!!!!
