Standard Bank - technologically constrained.

Imagine, I received a transfer from a Standard Bank Account into my Standard Bank Account, on Friday 15th December 2023. Is this not supposed to be an immediate payment? But trust me, today is 17th December 2023 and the funds have not cleared yet (i see funds but not available). Keep or open an account with Standard Bank at own risk - one day one will be stuck in the middle of nowhere and you receive help from another Standard Bank customer - trust me, you will wait for 72hrs (3 days) to get these funds. As for me, my family and a couple of friends, we are leaving STANDARD BANK!

This is just one generic and popular response to every complaint against Standard Bank. Am sure even if someone says "Hi" this is the response they get back. It is a system-generated response showing the Bank is not even in touch with customer reality. Standard Bank is failing its customers, and no normal person will keep an account with Standard Bank with this kind of service. No wonder why people call it an "old people bank". Extremely behind technology advancements!

How dare I wait 72 hours to get a transfer from a Standard Bank customer to my Standard Bank account? Fellow family, what you do with this information might help you make current and future decisions.
