Poor customer service

I app**** for vehicle finance with FNB and was put through to Akeesh. They requested a whole lot of documents which I sent. They then come back to state the deal is with the dealer and I must contact the dealer. Wesbank gave me an interest rate of 13% FNB being my bank gives me a rate of 12.5%?? yet I have been banking with you for over 7 years. I have more than 3 accounts with you with a large savings account of 90 000. I was now contacted by Akeesh who is rude as hell and really needs a wake up call on how to speak to customers. Who told me that he cannot do anything better, I requested to cancel my accounts and he states I must go to a branch. I then requested this over email as every interaction was over email and he refused to do this.As a customer I am requesting this and it is my right as per the Fais Ombudsman to have communication in writing,I work for a large insurance company and I don't think you would like me to take this up with the Registra or FSB. Futhermore how do you employ consultants like Akeesh? Cannot speak, speaks to fast, rude and arrogant - I want to cancel all my banking accounts with you for myself and partner and I will get my parents to do the same. <div><br></div><div><em>(Supplier name changed from First National Bank to Wesbank by Hellopeter.com)</em></div>
