Standard bank customer services

I have been trying, unsuccessfully, for the past week to get through to their customer services, with no luck. After being online for an hour, I eventually stopped the call. Does not matter what time of day you phone, the same generic announcement is made that they are receiving high call volumes. 8am, 10am, 12pm, 3pm, 6pm, 8pm. The same message for an hour. Utter ******* service. I wanted to move my salary to this bank but hell no.
