Stranded overseas without money

<p>On Tuesday 21 June I phoned standard bank credit card division and arranged for a transfer from my cheque account to my credit card for an amount of R35 000. The consultant (a lady named Hloni) informed me that the transaction was done and the funds will reflect within 48 hours. However, 48 hours later the funds did not reflect. The reference number for the call is Ref ********** 594.</p> <p> </p> <p>I phoned standard bank credit card division and was told that the instruction was sent, but that the transaction was not executed by standard bank.... Oh OK. So just not done.... I asked her why, she said she doesnt know and its not her job to know. This call ofcourse happened after spending a hour listening to call centrer music while phoning from abroad. Unfortunely, as one cannot as access money from your cheque account abroad, I am forced to live on my credit card and pay interest even thouugh I have R43 000 in my cheque account... Thank you standard bank! </p>
