Woolies not up to speed

App**** of a credit card but was approved for a store card.i was not notified of the approval because they used very old details of mine and NOT the info provided on the application.After checking my credit report I saw I had an approved account.I phoned them and had the details updated.

They then told me a store card will take 3 to 4 weeks to be delivered (what!) The alternative was ro collect a store card from a branch and even that will take 2 weeks to arrive. Talk about snail mail.i mean I receive parcels from halfway around the world at a faster pace.

I don't have a woolies in the area.Its located more then 100km from me.I can also not use my store card online unless I made 3 purchases in store. And as if that was not inconvenient enough they don't even deliver to my area? Alot of info I could have used before opening this account.

I CLOSED my account.They offered me 14k worth of store credit but declined me for a credit card.

Pathetic really to say the least.you don't cater for people in remote locations where you don't have outlets.we rely on online shopping.The woolies branch here closed 5 years ago.
