I recently opened a new account, On the 25th my salary was paid into this Account. The money didn't reflect on the account, I went to a branch in Roodepoort. I was told the reason is that since it's the first time the salary was paid in, it will be delayed. I find this reason unacceptable, I have debit orders that should have gone off on the 25th.

The lady at the branch told me there was nothing she can do and I have to wait till Wednesday.
