SB froze payment of a Pencare pension in Sept 2019 to a 93yo non res in UK who lives on her own. Tried complaints, non res dept, even DM senior mgrs, but no help. Advice please?

I don’t even think they give people loans that earn below R7500! Well played StandardBankZA

StandardBankZA - On behalf of all your non-Business clients, but loan and bond etc. Account holders - What GRACE / Payment will be extended us?

This is a very considerate move by Standard bank SA, can they take it furthure into soft revolving loan for SME as well.

Nedbank Holiday

Sakuva kwi statement xa sifika!

What is the catch?

Giving nothing, it increases the capital amount resulting in the client actually paying more over a longer period & the bank earning more from the loan. So how is the bank contributing, a few months worth of cashflow which is madeup in future interest earnings! Condescending!

Radical Economic Transformation criminals syndicate should come camp here and talk nonsense like thy always do

This is a business move to attract businesses to bank with them.

I only hope DSTV is watching

The problem with ths is without any conditions to it ths businesses will still lay off pple. Banks shld get assurances that employees wnt b affected

Standard bank y I didn't bank with you mara couse my bank is gone AWOL aikho.

This should be applied to all types of loan accounts, as well : Home & Personal Loans

FNBSA nantsi intanga zakho!! Do the right thing

Where is nedbank mfc 😭

But why are we incurring interest and service fees in those months?

But their service is still trash 🙄

Small business owners only?

MbuyiseniNdlozi What about personal loans

Nedbank ake nidlule ngapha.

What about those who earn salaries in the Events & Conferences arena .... and all conferences have been cancelled so no salaries

FNBSA it’s your time to shine!!!

StandardBankZA I am a small business owner with no loans because I have personally financed my business... but I have bonds and vehicle finance and a family. This payment holiday doesn’t help me at all 😡

ESTheLondoner I am a small business owner with no loans because I have personally financed my business... but I have bonds and vehicle finance and a family. This payment holiday doesn’t help me at all 😡

Meneer_Mann Theft masquerading as a customer benefit...... how shameless can a bank be and the journalist takes the mampara of the week prize for gullibility

😫😫😫😫😫☹️💔

what about personal loans🤕🤕🤕

NedbankCIB FNBSA CapitecBankSA AbsaSouthAfrica witsbschool

Easing for small business helps them survive which in turn means people will retain jobs and salaries. Pls understand the economic principles of this and not just “we all want a payment holiday too”

Still charging interest though ?

MFCShare take note

MbuyiseniNdlozi Big up for Standard bank 👏👏👏👏

Does the interest and fees on the loan still accrue to the loan during the 3 mth payment holiday? And if so, at what interest rate?

Wont the interest accumulate though?

What about us FNBSA Rbjacobs... The clients...

Lol what a nice way to make money in this time of an epidemic, trust the greedy business to come out with this .We still have to pay interest and accured charges means we be paying more if we dont pay our bonds, the number of months will increase ,standard bank shame on you

MbuyiseniNdlozi StandardBankZA 💯👏👏👏👏👏

CapeTown What about the self employed, contract workers and the normal man in the street with loans and overdrafts

Lol wow

EvatonForum They care about business since most are owned by whites.

Abramjee One step in the right direction , waiting for other financial institutions to follow suite not copy and paste

What about ordinary employees?

Pls give all info on what will happen after 3months.I will not be shocked to see Standard Bank changing terms& conditions to maximise profit and to catch up. High interest rate, long payment period/increased installment almost doubled.I might be wrong but be careful what u wish 4

NtsieniUnaado Good decision and appreciated

Nedbank mfc_sa

Thank you EFFSouthAfrica . You truly are leader of the people.

This will will extend your payment period with xtra interest

Abramjee FNBSA we are waiting. ...

Personal loans and credit cards holiday nyana StandardBankZA

MbuyiseniNdlozi BMW_SA hao breather nyana?

What about bonds, home loans?

Nedbank nithini nina?

Awaited_Opinion Caution: This is Not a debt discount. After the grace period all fees and interest you should have paid will still need to be paid. Options being either increasing the amount of your future payments, or by adding extra months to the end of the agreement.

Nedbank please do the same sthandwa'sam.

What type of small business?

StandardBankZA with tears in my eyes I ask you what about bonds?

MbuyiseniNdlozi CapitecBankSA are you seeing this?

I hope this includes bonds payments Patiently waiting for confirmation sms.

MbuyiseniNdlozi So... will they negate the interest accrued in these 3 months or is this opportunism where SB comes out richer?

My brother works at the restaurant, there hasn't been a business. Please consider the same for employed people

They will ultimately make more from recapitalizing the interest

Drickz_ Nedbank

Investec any chance of bond holiday.

Le rona tuuu🙏

White businesses do get loans from this banks

MbuyiseniNdlozi Good move, will be more than a relief to our people.

MbuyiseniNdlozi I’m waiting for FNBSA 🤸🏻‍♀️

Dstv must do the same

MbuyiseniNdlozi All power to Standard bank💪💪💪💪💪 I think I will live my bank and bank with you just because of your humanity

FNBSA respond with a 4 months holiday.

FNBSA WesBank masisizanefund

StandardBankZA , this is good, thank you. A repayment holiday of vehicle and home loans would also go a long way. Nedbank , a payment holiday on home loans please?

FNBSA what r u waiting for?

euphonik

MbuyiseniNdlozi FNBSA

Linda_WhiteZA Seems that they are just giving you a holiday from their debt collectors. You'll have to pay in the end, with 3 months worth of extra interest. Not really very generous.

FNBSA Look

CapeTown And vehicle finance for Uber drivers?

AbutiMatt FNBSA ulindeni

This is only when you have a business account with Standard Bank?

FNBSA can you see what other banks are doing?

Home owners?

AbsaSouthAfrica awuvakalelwa?

What about interest

Nomie_fied Your move FNBSA AbsaSouthAfrica Nedbank RMBCIB Investec , well done StandardBankZA

Your move, FNBSA WesBank VolkswagenSA 🙌🏼

But still charging interest... 🤔

So ordinary ppl are still being excluded once again.

My bank.. that’s progressive 👏🏿

Business owners what about bonds and vehicle finance

It's for small business owners that have a turnover of less than R20m.

AbsaSouthAfrica FNBSA Nedbank CapitecBankSA

And they are capitalising fees FFS. What a bloody ripoff.

Will interest and monthly fees still be added? Many people want to know.

3 month bond payment holiday please StandardBankZA
