SAME OLD SHODDY SERVICE

I have been waiting for a response to an email I sent for over a week and to which I received an automated reply saying that an agent will contact me within 48 hours. It appears that unless one appeals to STD bank through social media, one is just ignored. It is outrageous and I imagine they will tell me to contact their call centre yet I refuse as it is time and money gobbling. The same goes for the long long quesus inside the branch (Rosebank Mall) What with the pandemic spiking at the moment it is inappropriate to expect a client to have to chase after them especially when the error is on their side of the workbench (so to speak) I have provided a very comprehensive explanation in my email and also attached documents to facilitate the process. I once, (a couple of years ago with the same bank) had an agent phone me to ask me to explain what I needed to which I rep****, "it's in the email" to which she proceeded to hangup the phone with a grumpy sigh (one could feel the eye roll) I, like many other people am trying to recalabrate my life and carreer post pandemic crisis and to have my time wasted in such an incongruous manner is a shame!

So it has been over two weeks now and I have yet to receive a satisfactory response to my query. Due to the spike in COVID as I have stated in my communication with you, I am not prepared to stand in a lengthy queue at the bank. I have provided supporting documents with a comprehensive explanaation of what the problem is and that is that a credit has been entered as a debit and put my account in arrears which is a bank error. As for telling me to contact the cll centre, this too is unacceptable as I am involved in intensive studies at the moment and this is yet another period of time taking me away from my studies to follow up on an enquiry that should have been resolved by now. As a dilligent customer I expect better treatment.
