Request for TFSA Transfer Appearing to be Ignored

I have been trying to transfer my TFSA from STANLIB to EasyEquities since 23-Dec-2019. To date, I have not received any response from STANLIB other than the auto-reply acknowledging receipt of my emails. I have sent a total of 9 emails.

UPDATE

I was contacted by a consultant from STANLIB on the 07-Feb (the same day my complaint was posted on Hellopeter.com). I was requested to resubmit the TFSA transfer form. I have just received another follow-up call from the same consultant indicating that the matter is being dealt with and feedback will be provided as soon as is possible.

UPDATE

  • It has been over 3 weeks since I submitted my complaint on hellopeter.com.
  • While STANLIB was initially very quick to respond to my complaint, since then, I have had to be the one to follow up.
  • To date, there has been no progress. All I am told by the consultant is that "we are awaiting feedback". I am not even addressed by my name in these email responses.
  • In my opinion, three weeks is more than sufficient time to get to something more actionable than a one-line email response that provides no information at all on the status of my query.
  • The level of customer service has continued to be poor.

UPDATE: My Complaint Was Successfully Resolved

The STANLIB consultant handling my complaint has resolved the issue and my TFSA transfer from STANLIB to EasyEquities was completed successfully on 10-March-2020.
Thank you to STANLIB for how they handled my complaint on Hellopeter.com. While I still feel that it was disappointing for me to first have to complain publicly on Hellopeter.com to get the service I am due as a customer, I commend STANLIB for taking my complaint seriously and resolving my issue in a reasonable amount of time.
Thank you to the consultant for her effort in getting my issue sorted out.
