Standard Bank Self Interest - Greed first People Second
I am very very disappointed with standard bank as a major corporate player in the wills and trust department. We have asked the bank to kindly renounce their right to executor in a joint will because we wanted to work with a family attorney who have also offered a beneficial rate of 2%. The Bank has blatantly refused to renounce after a sincere letter was written to them.
A second heartfelt letter was written to standard bank management by the spouse asking to kindly atleast reduce the rate to 2% so that it will help the deceased's family as a whole and in the long term. Standard bank management has not gotten back to me from March.
In conclusion we are not happy with the standard bank BRAND as a whole. Standard bank markets themselves as a bank FOR THE CLIENTS but i believe the bank is selfish and greedy and only cares in self interest and nothing more. Despite telling the bank that we the family have several std bank accounts with them and a business account they have blatantly and ruthlessly ignored our request to HELP THEIR CLIENT.
The bank can assist if they want but they choose money over people. I dont recommend anybody to deal with standard bank if they continue to disappoint clients. I eagerly wait standard banks response.
