They Don't Want My Money......

I opened a fixed term investment account over the phone on 6 August 2026. Twice I have attempted to pay a substantial amount of money across from FNB and twice it has been returned by Standard Bank. They cannot tell me why and now because more than 7 days has lapsed the account has been frozen and I have to go to a branch to sort it out. Forget it Standard Bank, I'm leaving the money with FNB - your 0.5% better interest rate is not worth the aggro you put potential customers through.
