Can you hear me, Morpheus? I am going to be honest with you. I... hate... this place, this zoo, this prison, this reality—whatever you want to call it, I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink, And every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it; it's repulsive, isn't it? I must get out of here. I must get free.

Did you watch it again. What is it now - 12 times (and everytime as good as the first).:D
 
I'm a very loyal ABSA customer. My wife too... Maybe it's time to look @ my options elsewhere..

True but with every other person on a Blackberry these days, the mail notification can be considered just about instant as well (if the BB service is working properly). 48c per email is a ridiculous fee. If ABSA want to cover costs they should charge a nominal fee of a few cents x the bazillion SMS's they would process every day means that fatcat bonuses can continue.

I got a Life Start Student account and Silver Cheque Account, and the banking charges are always around R20 p/m. It only gets expensive when I draw from another banks ATM where the fee sky rockets to R20. I think they even charged me R50 once. I love the incontact service. It really makes you feel more in touch with your banking account, so that you're aware of every cent that gets paid in to and paid out of the account.

R20?! Holy hell! That ridiculous.

Std Bank may not be the best but at least when you draw money from another banks atm its only about R3 on top of the usual fee.

The sad part is even though WE all know ABSa is a pile of steaming crap, the average Joe on the street doesn't and Absa probably won't feel much for a few MyBB members leaving ABSA because of their pathetic charges, I want to be able to inform the country, and actually make a difference.

Maybe Carte Blanche will listen ?
