Hi all!

My favorite feature is the multiple savings pockets.

Hi folks!
I've always been with ABSA (student account), but I think the time has come to make a switch (since they're forcing me to upgrade).
Now, I have done my fair bit of reading (mostly on MyBB and MoneyWeb) about the banks here and their technology, customer satisfaction, fees, etc...
