Shocking service - all attempts to get help are ignored.

I have had the most shocking service from standard bank. I recently sold my house and took out a new bond with standard bank ( i have been with them for over 30 years.) I have no idea what my new bond account number is, even though the transfer went through a month ago. I have tried repeatedly to phone and have been on hold each time for over an hour. I would also like to enquire about an access bond but cannot speak to an actual person. Last weekend i complained on the FB page and someone said they would be in contact within 24 hrs - its now almost a week later and ive heard nothing. Im really at the point were im considering moving all my accounts to another bank - as much of a schlepp as that is, it'll be worth it to be somewhere im valued as a client

Seriously? Its now past 1pm on MONDAY. I have also been promised on your facebook page that someone will revert. When exactly? I have been trying for THREE weeks now. This is a smack in the face and you are literally telling me you do not care about me as a customer. How hard is it to get someone to pick up the phone. I'm done now. I will be contacting other banks - How do you expect me to trust an institution with my money that cannot even manage to get someone to pick up the phone.
