FNB Importing multiple Recipients from a CSV file

[joostonteldoos]

So, I am having trouble moving my list of Absa Beneficiaries to FNB without doing it manually of course. I managed to export the beneficiary list in CSV format from Absa, and got to the point on FNB online banking where one can import a CSV file, but the CSV formats that the banks use are different. Does anyone know what the format (fields order) of a FNB CSV file needs to be for importing recipients from a CSV file? Cannot find anything on the net. Thanks!

Create one recipient on FNB, export the list, look at the format and adapt accordingly.

Hi, can anyone assist with steps on how to export FNB beneficiaries to an excel or csv file?

Hint - change your Windows Regional Settings for 'English - South Africa' so that the decimal symbol for both numbers AND currency is a FULL STOP and NOT a COMMA, or your CSV import may not work correctly in MS Excel. Also make sure that the digit grouping symbol is a SPACE & NOT a COMMA as well, and that your list separator symbol is a COMMA & NOT a semi-colon.
