Worst banking services in South Africa

I have a home loan with standard bank and made an amendment to my title deed, the new title deed was send to standard bank by their lawyers in April 2021. In August 2022 i requested my title deed from the bank and they only had the old one on file, apparently the new one was lost. I had to request a new one from the attorney's and received it, they also issued the bank with the new deed again but stil in December 2022 standard bank has not yet updated it on the system. I have complained in the branch, i have logged complaints at the home loan department and at the complaints department they just phone or email me saying complaint has been resolved but nothing has been done. I am also a member of standard banks ucount rewards program and to redeem the ucount points i had to open up a savings account. I was at the branch opening the account on the 4th of November 2022 and still now the 13th of December 2022 it has not been linked with my ucounts card so does not work at all for the purpose intended on this i have also complained to my "personal banker" numerous times but have received no joy. Would not recommend standard banks costumer care to anyone.

From April 2021 the standard bank team has been working around the clock resolving my problem, I would assume you have quite allot of overtime by now. Thanks for the update check back with you in another year.

To update all people reading hello Peter review's in the hopes of learning more about a business as stated in my review and comments my issue has been reported and complained about numerous times since April 2021 and standard bank has done absolutely nothing about it not even delivering a standard service only empty promises mostly made by an automatic response service and no joy to the customer. Standard bank would only cost you money if you ever try to resolve any issues but will be of no assistance.
