shockingly poor service

<p>Have called Standard Bank multiple times, from outside SA, to try get my email address updated. Every customer service consultant I speak to has a different solution as to how this can get done without me having to walk into a branch. Most of them usually put me on hold while they speak to a manager about this.10 days later and the issue has not been resolved.</p> <p>When i was in SA I went into one of the branches to downgrade my account. The lady helping me said she does not know how to do this as she had never done it before. After eventually getting instructions from a manager she assured me that it would be done. I discovered, by looking at my bank charges on my statement, that this was not done. I cant even get through to the branch directly as the call centre is now centralised and when a consultant tries to put me through it is always too busy.</p> <p> </p> <p>It appears that there is a lack of training as nobody knows how to do what they are meant to do. Standard bank really needs to invest in training their staff better, especially in the branches and call centres as they are the ones that have to deal with customers on a daily basis. Truly dissapointing for such a large corporation.</p>
