Thank you for this information.
Allthough it doesn't work. I can't make payments because I am out of the country and can't receive any SMS's. Thus my SMS OTP does not come through. And to change this to email, I am following your steps both on app and browser and also can't do it because it promts me to go to my nearest branch. This is not possible as my nearest branch is thousands and thousands of km's away!
Please give an alternative to this solution.

I am absolutely exhausted with the bank not being helped for years now I have been living abroad and have been unable to access my internet banking because I don't use my old phone number and so I don't have a number to send a OTP , I have asked Standard bank and called multiple times using ridiculous amounts to call your agents to help move my OTP to my email but no one has helped and I cannot get myself or anyone to go to branch. , i cant add my card on the app and i've already sent that sbsa email numerous emails , I feel like you've scammed me because i dont understand how i havent been able to get help in 3 years AND THERES NO OPTION TO SELECT MY OTP PREFERENCE ON THE APP

Hi sauhatsewilliam,
Thank you for getting touch
If you are not receiving your one-time-PIN (OTP) via SMS, then there may be a problem with the details that we have on record for you. Please visit your nearest Standard Bank branch to confirm the cellphone number that we should have on record for you.

You can access the "Manage OTP preference" feature under your settings on the Internet Banking which will allow you to toggle between SMS and email.

I have the same problem. I don't have access to a cell phone but have wifi. Can I change my OTP to email via Skype? Whatsapp call?

Hi,
You need to call our general banking line (0860 123 000) to switch from receiving your OTP on your mobile number to your email address. However, the email address needs to be already register in your files with us. If it is not. You will need to go to a branch for assistance.
