So Frustrated with Standard Bank - Useless

I sent Standard bank an email to change my banking details on my debit order for credit card payments, they had me give all my personal info and answer a bunch of questions to verify that it is my account, then had me send proof of my banking details - Just so that they can tell me in the end that they cant actually help me.

"Please note that we at the E-mail Unit are unable to amend the personal details for customers. Kindly contact our General Banking on ***/+27 11 ********** they will assist you. You may alternatively visit your nearest Standard Bank branch for assistance. "

So all the back an forth was literally just to waste my time, I just want to change my banking details so I can actually PAY YOU!!! and stop paying ridiculousness amounts in bank charges for my other account that I am unable to close as Standard Bank won't take the freaking debit order off and just change it to my new bank account - even when the have all the details and proof.

Thank you for updating my banking details and informing me that I will literally be throwing another R200 away just to keep my previous account open for Standard bank Only!! So in the 2 months (that i have been trying to change my details) it has cost me R400 just to keep an account open for your R25 debit order (which I assume is bank charges after I settled my Credit card last month). But Never Mind, I will have this Credit card closed as soon as possible to make sure I NEVER HAVE TO DEAL WITH STANDARD BANK AGAIN.
