We're aware that some of our customers were experiencing difficulties when attempting to transact with their Debit Card earlier in the day. Impacted customers will not be able to transact when using their debit cards at a point of sale or at an ATM. This matter has been resolved and impacted debit cards can now be used at ATM's and point of sale. However, we are also aware that the Standard Bank Banking App is not available to users. The newer Online Banking platform which some customers use is not available for customers to use while the "older" version of Internet Banking, which the majority of our customers use, is fully functional.
Our technical team is working to resolve the problem and restore full banking functionality on the App. We wish to apologise for the inconvenience that this has caused. Should you wish to use our Mobile App wish to transact, you're advised to use Internet Banking to make payments, perform inter-account transfers or check their balances. Our customers can follow us on twitter on @StandardBankZA, where further updates will be provided.
Update 9PM 29 January
All services are now restored, this includes Internet Banking, Mobile App and all Card services. We thank you for your patience & sincerely apologise for the inconvenience once more.
