That app thinks I'm so vain. It keeps wanting me to take a selfie whenever I log in.

Needs to be back up asap, the Capitec users need access to their R282 to survive till payday.

I wanted to ask who posted the pictures of actual photos of the screen then I remembered Capitec doesnt allow screenshots

I used to use the website, now I cant login without some photo identification on the app, or something and that does not work for me. I am sure it works for some people though

So what was the effect of this outage..
People could not buy R20 electricity or they could not play the lotto

its nice being a grumpy old man
Well, nice for me

Another reason the push to a cashless card-less society isn't a good idea for the average Joe.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but my credit card still worked fine. Used it at Hungry Lion without issues yesterday evening.

At R7.50, I guess you get what you pay for.

Which part of card-less did you miss? I was talking about the current push not to use physical cards and rely on virtual ones, which won't work if the system goes down.

Funny then mine on Apple / Google pay still worked. Only the app went down not any card services. Cash is trash.

Cash is trash.

Did you notice yet that you're the only one saying so?

Don't use it if you don't like it, but you seem obsessed for some reason.

Just equilising the pro cash crowd.
