Standard Bank
WATCH OUT IF YOU CLOSED AN ACCOUNT AT STANDARDBANK

I, DR GAVIN WILLIAMS CLOSED MY BUSINESS BANK ACCOUNT WITH STANDARD BANK WHICH AFTER FIVE YEARS HAS BEEN REALOCATED TO AN UNKNOWN INDIVIDUAL. THIS INDIVIDUAL HAS RECEIVED A VAT WINDFALL FROM SARS AND STANDARD BANK REFUSES ANY FORM OF RESPONSIBILITY. AFTER PRESURE FROM THE BANK OMBUDSMAN THEY ARE NOW WILLING TO ONLY REIMBURSE HALF THE AMOUNT AS THE SAID INDIVIDUAL HAS SPENT THE MONEY. I HAVE AN PROBLEM WITH THIS SECURITY RISK FOR EXAMPLE IF A RELATIVE SENDS ME MONEY FROM OVERSEAS AS A SURPRISE HAVING ACCESS ONLY TO MY OLD BANK ACCOUNT THIS MONEY WOULD BE SENT BACK AS THE ACCOUNT WOULD HAVE BEEN CLOSED OR WOULD IT HAVE?? WOULD SOMEONE ELSE THEN NOT RECEIVE THIS MONEY UNKNOWINGLY TO ME.
