STANDARD BANK A BUNCH OF ******

Standard bank has to be the ****piest bank ever.

For 2 years now they have been debiting my mother's account for a house that was paid up since 2016. My mother then noticed last year August and she went in to the bank to notify them of this and this is what Standard bank did:

1. Continued to debit money from her account till this day, even after numerous visits to the bank. (mind you this is an elderly woman who can barely walk and still goes to the bank every other week only to get **** service from the consultants.) 2. They closed her account for no reason and requested a letter from her so that they can re-open the account, we did that and they still continued to debit. 3. Since my mother first complained about this last year August she has been given the run around, asked to write stupid letters and make calls every other day. And she eventually dealt a lady called Duduzile who is apparently in JHB...

Now this Duduzile character tells my mom that she won't get her full refund for whatever reason.

My mother is an elderly woman who shouldn't be made to struggle so much to get her own money back. It's been months now, the last straw was when we called on Monday since I was home for the long weekend and that consultant hung up on her.

STANDARD BANK is taking advantage of this elderly woman because they keep giving her the run around and they still won't pay her what is rightfully hers because she doesn't know the channels to follow for a complaint. They even asked her to send an e-mail (she's flippen old and not so much into technology, she doesn't even have an e-mail address)

and when I calculate from her bank statement the amount she should be refunded with, Duduzile told her she won't even get half of it.

BUNCH OF ****** WITH RUDE CONSULTANTS AND PATHETIC SERVICES.

I will also be approaching the ombudsman if this issue is not resolved by the end of the week.

Absolutely disgusted by this **** bank.

I don't see this commitment you are talking about. And what does matter of urgency mean to? Replying to this complaint and not even calling afterwards? Guys yeeer, you are so pathetic man, your service stinks. for such a big organization you guys are disgusting.

So I just got a call from a guy called Nkululeko who blatantly said he couldn't answer my question which was as simple as 'What are you guys actually investigating?" Because you say you're investigating and you will contact my mother today still, how will you contact her? because I never gave away her number or account details or ID number. So what are you still investigating? The only thing you told me was not to post on social media, I'm not sure who you guys think you are dealing with but I am not stupid. My friend's mother has been battling with you guys for a full year now, my mother is still battling with you guys for her money for 8 months going on 9 now. Is 12 months your benchmark for a resolution? Since I lodged this complaint today, should I give you guys 12 months from today to actually do the right thing? wow this is disgusting.

So my mother was told that she would get her money on Friday... We both decided to wait it out until today and still nothing. No communication and no funds.
