Low Fees but No Protection Against Unauthorized Debits – Switched to Capitec

Banked with TymeBank for 2+ years, salary paid in – loved the low charges. But when an unauthorized debit order hit, they refused to block or dispute it, saying contact the supplier yourself. Felt unsafe with my money there. Switched to Capitec for better protection.

I am still awaiting feedback regarding the unauthorized debit order on my account.

I followed up with the bank today and was advised that a response will only be provided after 40 working days, which is approximately two months. I requested confirmation of the exact date on which the 40 working days will be completed, as I am unable to calculate this on my side.

Unfortunately, the consultant advised that she also does not know the exact date.

This lack of clarity and prolonged turnaround time is concerning, especially given the seriousness of an unauthorized debit order. I would appreciate clear communication and a definitive timeline on when this matter will be resolved.
