Standard bank insist new small business have a BEE partner before opening account

Please forgive not first language english. Very upset made complaint to standard bank mafikeng and standard bank complaints email. Only response from manager to want to call me. No reference to question why she insist I add bee partner to my business before she can open account. Business legally registered, have SARS documents etc. Do not need partner and do not need Amogelang to find bee partner. It is very very sad and also very very unfair that even Standard Bank not honest. Open account no problem with fnb. No requirement for partner. Me wonders if not personally looking for oppertunity and lying to new clients.st
