Why does the FNB internet Banking never work
Why does the FNB internet Banking never work? Everytime a person tries to log-on you have to wait hours before you can even get into the banking system. You get an sms to say you logged on but you go no further...

Still no feedback from FNB
I logged a complaint last week - ref 64610- Still no feedback from FNB. Never mind I will go to our local branch to cancel my FNB card. Thanks for nothing.

FNB is charging me for credit cards I never received
FNB is charging me for credit cards I never received... Not really fair you'd think... but they have now put the lawyers on to me cause I refuse to pay... How can this be... Come on FNB do you really think this is fair... Would you pay me a car I invoice you for if you never got it... Answer: of course not.

My home is gone without me even knowing it
I was contacted 2 days ago to be told that my house was on auction by First National Bank. I explained that I was in financial difficulty as I had been unemployed for the past 1 year and had just gotten a job and was trying to get back on my feet and I just needed an extention and that I would get it up to date. IToday I came up with the money only to be told it's too late. I did not receive any correspondence to say that my house was being auctioned, I did not sign any documents. Today I found out that my house is gone. I was told that if I have any issues I can contact a lawyer. I am trying to contact anyone who can assist me, please can anyone help me, I need my home back, please... please can someone give me advise.

Uncleared Cheque that has taken more than 14 days
On the 2nd of March 2010 a cheque deposit was made into my account from Swaziland and I was told it would be cleared in 7 working days after I had spoken to an agent from the call centre. After the 7 working days I called again and was told it would be cleared after the 15th of March and on the 17 the cheque was still not cleared, I called the call centre again and was told to wait 7 more days and I asked the agent to give me a definate date as this was becoming a bit problematic, I asked her how the 7 days was calculated was it 7 days after the cheque was deposited or 7 days from the day we spoke she said it was 7 days I asked her how she came about with the 7 days, she said the 7 days was a comment on the account and she had no knowledge of how they came about with that, I must just wait for 7 days or rather call my branch maybe they can help me, I called my Centurion branch and the phone rang for a longtime until somelady answered, I was asked to leave a message becasue all managers were busy they would call me back, the lady was just not keen on helping, to date Im still waiting for that call, left another message today with Pamela who also said I must wait for their call.

Different story every time
I went to draw R200 at the ATM at Adderley Street, Cape Town on Monday morning. The machine retuned my card and gave me a slip but no money then it went offline. I went inside the bank and spoke to an employee who said that they cannot do anything at the moment but will phone me later. I still have not had a phone call from her. I called the branch later that day and was informed that I need to wait for the atm machine to be checked. I was told that because I have a T510 code on the bottom of my slip that an error had occured and once the machine had been checked the money would be credited to my account but I needed to wait 48 hours. Today is Thursday and I still haven't heard anything and no money has been credited to my account. I called again and was told that I needed to go into the bank and show them the slip as the machine had only been R50 out and I now needed to log an investigation through JHB. This has been a total run around and I find the service unacceptable. To be given different information everytime I call is very unprofessional. I am a PAYING customer of FNB and I have not been helped in anyway to recover my money.

Ex wife checks our account illegally
I so horrified at FNB ethics. i logged this complaint on this site & with the FNB Customer care OVER A MONTH AGO & to date all i get is the run around & reference numbers. my husband's ex is an 'ambassador' in a good position at FNB who has invaded our privacy on a few occassions. she has given some ridiculous excuses that dont make sense. FNB says they accept her apology & i should move on as it is now CLOSED. i am the client & signed all sort of documents to ensure my privacy & rights.
i had such issues gaining info about my hubby account that he eventually had to give me full access to the account BUT HOW CAN HIS EX CHECK THE ACOUNT WITH OUT OUR PERMISSION?
Does working at the bank give you the right to access account for self gain. What has happened to client privacy, has that gone out the window. How many other ex’s use their status at the bank to access this privileged information.
this cover up is unacceptable...FNB 'how can we help you' needs to be questioned.

Account not changed as requested
On the 20th February I went to FNB Benmore Gardens, and requested my cheque account be changed to a student account as I have started studying full time this year. I supplied the branch manager with all relevant documentation as proof.
I had to go to Benmore Gardens branch, as my branch Craighall, is closed until April for renovations.
She assured me that my account would be changed within the next three working days (by February 24).
I noticed at the beginning of March that my account fee was still that of the cheque account, and not that of the student account. I called the FNB call centre, to be told that my account had not been changed to a student account.
I do not understand why this has not been actioned. This lack of service from FNB is disappointing.
I would like my account changed immediately, as per my original request. I want my account fee of R79 refunded and to be charged the correct amount for a student account (R19 I believe), as was confirmed by the branch manager.

Application for extension declined
I am very disappointed with FNB as I recently applied for an extension on the payment terms of my home loan, because I (like EVERY other South African) am being dragged through the mud due to the recession. This has been a trying time for us all. We are living hand to mouth, and FNB has chosen a time like this to exercise a LACK of compassion.
'How can we help you?” they ask. Well maybe they could help by actually giving us a bit of breathing space when we are having TEMPORARY cash flow problems! I've been their client for many years. I'm not asking for much, just that I be allowed to pay smaller amounts of money over a longer period of time. I mean, this is my home we're talking about. I have a family to support and FNB seems to care less that this is the roof over our heads that I'm fighting to keep. Can’t they see that I'm being proactive? I'm not going to let this recession drown me in debt, and I need FNB to be that life jacket for me.

'What can I avoid doing for you today' should be their slogan
It amazes me how long a bank will take to correct a problem THEY created. After waiting almost 3 weeks to get to a point of TOUGH, the phone was not recorded (as your manager scr_ewed up). You are leaving me no alternative but to lodge a compliant with the Bank Ombudsman. The NCA clearly states that all changes to financial transactions by law be recorded or signed for. You have none
I got back from Cape Town yesterday after a 10 day business tri. I have been patient but STILL nothing from your compliance department. I have wasted a MONTH trying to sort this out but your staff have passed the buck and finally after I requested a SENIOR Manager to call me, that died a death too.
'What can I avoid doing for you today' should be your slogan!!!
