Poor service delivery/ Lack of service delivery
On 4 October 2021 I signed an agreement to purchase the sole manufacturing rights in Limpopo for a product that is widely used in the mining, agricultural and transport industry. This agreement lapse after a week if the financing is not available.
I applied for a personal loan online on the ABSA website (ref: C-12663925). The website claimed that an answer will be given within 24 hours. On 7 October I still have not received feedback and with great effort managed to get the contact details of my private banker in Mokopane (Potgietersrus). She promised to assist. On Friday afternoon a Ms Wahieba Abdullah contact me telephonically from the Johannesburg Head Office of ABSA. She requested some information from me which I provided.
I informed her about the deadline of the agreement and she said she will give me feedback later the same day. This did not happen.
On Monday 11 Oct 2021 I received a mail from her requesting a copy of my ID. This I did and she received and read the mail by 10:30 same day
It is now 24 hours later and still no feedback. What is concerning is that I sent her a mail early this morning stating my unhappiness with the lack of service and that I will be reporting this matter to the complaints board. It is obvious that this is not a serious issue with her, as I still have not received a call or an e-mail regarding the progress
I will appreciate your assistance in resolving the matter

Poor and slow service delivery
On Monday 4 October 2021 I applied for a personal loan online. (Ref Number C-12663925)The website promised an answer within 24 hours. This did not happen. On Thursday after I managed to get a phone number of my private banker in Mokopane. I contacted her regarding my complaint. On Friday 8 Oct I was contacted by another person, Ms Wahieba Abdullah, who requested more information from me. I informed her as to the reason of my application and the time limit to secure the sole manufacturing rights in Limpopo for a product that is widely used in the Mining, farming and transport sector She indicated that she will contact me the same day to give me feedback on the progress of my loan application. This did not happen. On Monday I received a mail from her requesting a copy of my ID document. This I forwarded. It is now 24 hours later, and still no feedback. Why not???????????
This lack of feedback and lack of service does not reflect well on ABSA and I hope my mail will receive the attention and action it requires

FNB Private Clients a waste of time
Terrible service
I was suckered into signing up for an FNB Private Clients account, with the high monthly fees because they apparently do so much for you as a valued "Private Client".
Total rubbish. I've called 6 times into the Private Clients call center for my private banker to contact me regarding a Single Facility application.
It seems my private banker has either died or left the planet.
It's been over two weeks.
Every time I call there, the people seem confused. As if I'm asking them to solve Quantum Physics problems.
To make matters worse, it seems the only person that can help me is my "dedicated" private banker, who has suddenly gone AWOL like Jason Bourne.
They have a team full of private bankers but apparently their protocols are such that no other private banker could possibly assist me with my insanely complex requirements.
FNB private clients - for getting scammed privately.

POOR SERVICE
I am always appaled at the long waiting time at ABSA Galleria Mall Amanzimtoti. If you want to be helped at customer service you wait longer than 2 hours. Today I was made to wait almost 2 hours to do a simple transfer. when I enventually got into the bank in the waiting area an ABSA employee came in from outside to say that all the customers are frustrated and angry waiting outstide and that it is taking too long. There were only 2 tellers and one was occupied with a customer for a whole hour, no one else stepped in to help. The teller complained that she wants to go on lunch!
This is month end surely they should have enough staff??? Regarding their service I would never recomend any one from going to ABSA if any one says they want to open an account I tell them what a terrible bank it is and not to.
ABSA your service is losing you clients!

I have been a client with Absa for many years and feel that the Lady at Absa Carmen Carolus have been delaying the proses with the application due to taking very long with feedback and the saracsm over the telephone as a client with Absa is not ok , I feel that the way she is handling this by making me feel if i am a criminal due to the fact that my surname and my daugters surname is diffrent . This is no way for clients being years with Absa should be treated , this is not the first account i have opend for my daughter but is sure is the worst service i have ever received by being treated this way

Trying to open an account for my daugther
Good Day
Please assist as in regards to the client service that are very poor with Absa, I am trying to open an bank account for my daughter and The Lady with the Name Carmen Carolus at Absa is assisting in the matter via email , But i do feel the way that i am being treated is very unprofessional and also at a time via a Telphone call she was very sarcastic with me. I sended all the supporting documents as needed for my daugthers account which was correct as she then started quetioning my Surname and i had to send proof to show that my surname had changed as it was diffrent from my daugters surname. I feel that the way this procedure in being delt with and making me feel like am a criminal and asking al kinds of proof that my mainden surname was Strydom is no way to treat an very old and long existing client of Absa bank for years now. This is not the first account that i am opening for my daugter with Absa but still this proses to open this account is dragging because of staff being very unprofessional regarding matters like these .

Journal Debit RCCS BOS J...........
I opted in for payment relieve on my personal loan account when I received the first payment relieve offer message in March. I received 7 messages after (first message on the 1st of April another on the 8th, 15th, two messages on the 17th and another two messages on the 18th) I had to call in numerous times to follow-up, I even asked to talk to two managers after as every time I called they are not aware??????? I finally got assisted by a consultant who called me (Danseen) she advised that the payment relieve has been approved and that because they are pushing up my account by three months my payment amount also changed to a lesser amount (new amount payable will be R4901.51). She also said that I don't have to worry she confirmed that no payment will be deducted from my account, yet the end of the month came and they deducted (and they cannot say it is because my payment relieve request was not approved) AS THE AMOUNT THEY DEDUCTED WAS THE NEW AMOUNT WITH THE CHANGES MADE???????????? I then had to call in again and ask why as I have payment relieve, they confirmed this and reversed the amount back into my account, No obviously I was not worried for this month as hey they now noted and gave me back my money so what is the chances of this happening again?????? Yet, I get a call today this morning from MBD Debt department stating that my account is in arrears with R9932.53? I then called ABSA having to repeat what the issue is to 4 people and getting cut off with each and every one of them (Natrisha, Mapeso, Cena, Sindele) i called back again for the 5th time speaking to a Potunia, she confirmed that my account does reflect as on payment relieve and that my account is not under MBH and that i dont have to worry? YET WHEN I WANTED TO BUY PRE-PAID ELECTRICITY TODAY, I SEE THAT THEY HAVE TAKEN MONEY FROM MY ACCOUNT ON THE 29TH OF MAY (TOTAL OF R9932.53 WITH REF JOURNAL DEBIT RCCS BOS J............) (NO DISCUSSION, NO AGREEMENT AND I DID NOT EVEN GET A NOTIFICATION MESSAGE AS I GET WITH EVERY OTHER PURCHASE OR DEBIT ORDER THAT GOES OFF FROM MY ACCOUNT NOTHING ?????????????????????) I called the fraud department ALSO USELESS if I might add, in order to ask what this is for, the gentleman confirmed that this is for my personal loan account (double what I should pay monthly???????????????????????) WHAT THE F#CK people how many times must I call you, explain myself over and over again, and get told don't worry all is sorted now and I STILL HAVE ISSUES????????????? Now I have to wait until Monday, to go to the bank and ask why they took the money, and yet I spoke to 5 DIFFERENT PEOPLE 5 I am telling you........... and still they have not resolved my issue????????????? IF ABSA DOES NOT RESOLVE THIS ISSUE then I might have to consider going elsewhere which is VERY SAD as I HAVE BEEN WITH ABSA MY WHOLE LIFE and ABSA I can tell you now, your personal loans account department is going to cause your DOWNFALL my suggestion will be to either re-train them or have people work in your call center that actually knows how to do the job and actually wants to help a customer!!!!!!!!!!!

Card robbed at ATM
On 8th December 2019 I went to ABSA Brooklyn (top floor) to use the ATM. 2 ATM's were blocked and a man told me that the 3rd is working, he has just used it. The same problem occurred and when I tried to put my card in the machine he put his arm above me and all of a sudden my card was gone!! I was very upset, and ran to the security of Nedbank to help me. But within minutes I got a message that there were monies withdrawn from my cheque account.
I have been a ABSA client for 48 years, and I cannot believe that other Banks in Brooklyn Centre all have security guards outside their Banks, but ABSA who suppose to be one of the big Banks, do not have ONE SINGLE SECURITY GUARD outside their Bank on a Sunday morning!! This is an open invitation for these scumbags to rob people and clients. Should we arm ourselves with our private weapons if we want to use the ATM's??? Another question I want to put to you is, when I have a limit on my account, I cannot exceed this limit, but when a scumbag robs me from my card, he can exceed my limit without even my private pin???
This is mind blogging for me, and with all the clever IT guys in your Bank why cannot this be prevented?? You know why, all these scumbags have contacts in the Bank who assist them in this game of robbing poor innocent pensioners!! Is there nobody clever enough to trace these scum??
I was promised by the Bank Manager, the day after when I reported this matter, that "somebody"of the fraud dept will be in contact with me, but you know, one full month has passed, and NO ONE has ever contacted me!!?? I went to the Bank to complain and requested an update, however, to this date I am still waiting!! Is this the way the bank treats all their clients??? You know very well to let us pay the highest bank charges, but there is NO CLIENT SERVICE AND NO SECURITY??
Maybe I will get a response from somebody now, because I will now also lodge a report on Hello Peter and the Bank Ombudsman.

ABSA un-authorised Journal Debit of R16111.94
ABSA has just debited an amount of R16111.94 from my ABSA Savings Account without my consent or any notification. Apon contacting customer care, I was told to call the collections department. After getting through to the Collections Department I was informed that funds were debited due to my Personal Loan outstanding debt which is in arrears. I informed the consultant that this is not allowed and not permitted by law however I was informed that I will not get a refund as I am owing the bank. I explained that this in not my money as I am currently unemployed and funds deposited into my account were for a stokvel distribution. I was told sorry, I will not get a refund, Apon having a discussion with the consultant and the supervisor I continued to asked for assistance as these funds do not belong to me. The supervisor said she can only refund 10% of funds debited, I begged and explained that these funds were not for my Personal use but for distribution to other people. She said she would speak to her manager but can only negotiate for a refund of R9000. I explained that this is not right as these funds do not belong to me. I am unemployed and will not have money to pay the intended beneficiaries who want their money immediately. How does ABSA get away with doing things this way, my life could be in danger due to this as people want their money and I don't know what they will do to me. Why is ABSA not adhering to the South Gauteng High Court Judgement handed down on 27 June 2019 in favour of the NCR in respect of the Common Law Right of Set-Off found in (section 124 of the National Credit Act). The Court Judgement clearly stated that Banks may no-longer take monies from clients accounts to settle a credit agreements withowithout their concent. I URGENTLY need these funds reversed so I can immediately pay the people it was intended for. The banks urge us not to withdraw large sums of cash for stokvel distributions but when monies are in accounts they use technicalities to debit monies from our accounts, even those not intended for our private use. This is not right. ABSA please reverse debited funds.

Unauthorised Debit by Absa
Absa made an unauthorized debit from account for RCCS BOS for an amount of R9342.70. I went to query this debit at the bank an I was told this was for a personal loan. I didn't get a call or a notification regarding this debit. My agreement with Absa is to deduct on the 21st and not randomly on the 13th , the money does not even belong to me, it belongs to a Stokvel.
I need the funds to be reversed into my account and Absa will debit on the 21st as per our contractual agreement.
I'm very aggrieved by this, this is awful customer service. I spoke to a very rude consultant called Lungile at personal loan.
I regret not leaving the bank sooner, this is nonsense and is unacceptable. You don't have a right to do as you please with our accounts . Please reverse my funds!!!
