Woolworths And Absa, A Marriage Made in Hell
I have a Woolworths Credit Card, i Made a big Purchase with it on the 5/9/2020 which ABSA Deemed as Suspicious, even though i have made bigger Purchases, But Fair Enough they sent an SMS asking me to Reply if it was my Transaction which i did, thye then rep**** with an SMS confirming that the Transaction was Valid.
On the 8/9/2020 When i Swiped my card and entered the Pin Number, i Received an SMS saying CArd Blocked for Incorrect PIN.
I then Went to the Bank to reset the PIN, where i was informed that the card was not blocked because of the pin but because the Transaction on Saturday That they have now taken on Themselves to deem as **********.
After spending 2 hours at the branch trying to Sort the issue, even using my phone to contact Woolworths as they refused, i gave up. I then tried another Call to Woolworths who informed me to rather get a new Card, which they sent to me a week Later, Lo and Behold Try and use that Card and ABSA still has a block on it, Which they refuse to Remove, but keep on forwarding an SMS to say i should logon to Online Banking to remove it, Online Banking that does not work with Woolworths
AS i type i have been on the Line with Woolworths Call Centre for Over 30 Minutes and still no Joy
Woolworths please Find another bank to Link your Credit Card To
