Account on hold - very frustrated!
On the 22nd of June, I transferred money from my Tymebank a to a different bank. Shortly after, I got an SMS that my account had been blocked. I called on the day with no luck. I called again on the 23rd where I was eventually told to visit a Tymebank kiosk. I went to a mall nearby and none of the kiosks worked (I tried PnP, Exact, Boxer, Sports enemy and all while on the phone with Tymebank, running around the mall using my own airtime). Thus I was informed I could not be assisted.
I then thought to change the cellphone number linked to my account, I did this at a PnP Kiosk in Promenade, on the 1st of July. When I asked the "ambassador" for assistance, she told me to cancel what I was doing on screen, which made no sense and I showed her the status on my account and she basically just dismissed me!
I have tried to contact Tymebank on several occasions since, including this morning and I am always placed on long holds (+30 minutes) until my airtime finishes. And no one ever calls me back. The whatsapp line is useless. I am very frustrated!
I am busy to always be running around trying to sort out something that is not even my fault! Hence I chose to save with a digital bank, where I would transact only on my phone!
This has gotten on my last nerve! How else can I be helped because I need to use my money and I will not be able to get to a kiosk at least until next week because I don't have money to buy airtime to call and wait for 30 minutes for your agents to answer or for me to go find a working kiosk.
