Sub-standard bank

I don't see it be beneficial following this complaints process if there's been no response to my direct emails, so pardon me for losing faith in that department.

I recently completed a survey that was sent to me and at this point I may as well downgrade my account since having had absolutely NO ASSISTANCE since sending my initial request for assisyance on 30 March regarding international payments. May as well not waste more of my time and just close this account and go where ill be treated best because clearly paying a premium price for supposed private banking is a joke. Should this not get resolved today, forget anything from me from tomorrow onwards.

I NEED TO MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS AND YOU COULDN'T BE BOTHERED IN THE SLIGHT TO ASSIST, SO WHAT'S THE POINT? MAY AS WELL GIVE ME INFORMATION HOW TO CLOSE MY ACCOUNT TODAY INSTEAD!!!!!

It's a real pity Standard Bank resorts to reactive attempts at resolution of issues that could've been resolved in time and moreso as I completed the "Make your voice heard - Participate in the Krutham survey today!" with my current thoughts on how I'm paying a premium service I'm not getting. First email was sent 30 March and I received a response from my private banker on 02 April inwhich COJ was in copy to action. My 2nd email was sent 06 April following up to all in correspondence as I had heard no feedback. And now today again where I'm copying in your complaints email address as your escalation process itself cant be trusted if dorect emails aren'tresponded to... see the pattern here? And it's only now that I'm on Hello Peter that I'm getting SOME response. Hayisuka! It may not be important to you, but some of us have reason as to why we choose private banking, may as well resort to being whatever you would consider 'public' banking if I can get a better response time. I don't believe you on HelloPeter will get my issue resolved. I guess instead of having private banking that I pay for, I may as well write on this platform of I need some assistance, it could save me some time, effort, frustration and of course money! And I'll be damned if you tell me that certain things need to be done in advance or will take some time to be effective when I've clearly sent you communication you've acknowledged in response only ONCE!
