Standard Bank is a disappointment!

Standard Bank has been letting me down time after time. Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic I reached out many times to apply for the different financial relief measures put forward by Standard Bank. Not once was I assisted or even answered. I never receive feedback on questions, even after following up multiple times. No platform of communication works, from e-mail, call centers or even Facebook.

After being granted a premium holiday on my home loan, Standard Bank tried to deduct the premium anyway, and because I did not foresee the debit, I had no funds in the account. I now sit with penalty fees as a debit on my account. I requested feedback and a solution, with no reply once again.

Standard Bank has become a faceless entity with no humanity, and I wish I could close all my accounts and move to another bank. Shame on you.
