Standard Bank credit card division Poor service

I have been trying to follow up on my credit card application and no one can help. My details is just kept being taken and nobody is providing me with feedback.

I was approved and did the whole telephonic contract and now i hear nothing still. I was called by an agent and took up the titanium product.

I sent my required documents to **********

Every agent i speak to follow up on my application states that outbound does not take calls. They says that they will take my details and nobody calls me back. i even sent complaints to the standard bank complaints division. Still no response. i need to urgently know the progress on my application.

This is ridiculous that there is block preventing me from following up on my application.

I required this credit card for a specific purpose and at a specific date. Now i dont even know what is going on.

What kind of standards is this even before i become a client?????? i was even told by a few agents that nobody captured notes on the system on my case. Its completely shocking.

I was contacted by Mr Hastings Muravha, however, even though he mentioned that KSS are processing the application... there is still no way for me to follow up directly on the case and now i must wait a further 7 days from my initial application on the matter as he mentioned his hands is tied. This kind of service just because the application was done in an outbound matter is ridiculous. Why must i be treated differently because i was sold through an outbound fashion. I would not want anyone to have to waste their time, thus if you are reading this, rather do you applications directly so that you can ensure that you can follow up. I think these outbound applications are allocated last priority and it is very unfair from a treating customers fairly and equal perspective.

Clint.. Thanks for your help. I got my card yesterday.. But now I'm litrally standing outside the bank waiting for it to open because they captured a wrong phone number and also no email address. So now I had to come back to the bank. I tried to call and they refused to help me on the phone.. Again not happy with these standards. I hope I can come right at the bank... This is legit the last straw
