Name and Shame: Unauthorised Debit Orders Thread

Same here! Got an SMS: UPS NCONNUPS15_51886 R-99. I am also with ABSA.

These people should burn in hell. :(
 
I just got the debit order now :mad:, I am pissed off. Am with FNB!
UPS NCONNUPS15_89897 -R99
 
03:10 Same sms same debit order. I am with FNB.
Logged onto the app.... technical difficulties with reversing the debit order.
Logged onto the bank.... technical difficulties with reversing the debit order.
So I guess if its not fixed at 8:00 I will have to call :mad:
 
Just happened to me too but mine says eft like I chose to pay them. Will call the bank later, this is ridiculous!

Same here @ 3.25am. i am with FNB. Disputed and then stopped D/O from app. Funds were reversed. I'll email Pasa today.
 
This has happened to me as well. Got the notification at 3.10am. R99.00 paid from cheq a/c Ref.Ups Nconnups15. 3Nov 00:00. I logged dispute on app and and sent email to pasa. Fnb reversed on their side and it showed up as magtape unpaid. I hope this doesn't occur again.
 
Same debit order with FNB, reversed
and disputed. Also reported to doa... Beats doing nothing about it at all.
 
Also happened with me this morning. With FNB.
Used the FNB app to reverse+stop.
Also sent a mail to [email protected]

Bloody annoying. If this keeps on happening, I will probably go through the mission of opening a new account and closing this one, just so that I can get a new account number.
 
Going by the amount of posts here, I really wonder which company leaked all these account numbers. This fraudster had to get it from somewhere.
 
Saw one on my statement today, dated yesterday. R99. Reference 'UPS NCONNUPS15_21931 -'. It's a good thing I started tracking all my expenses last year as usually I would not have noticed an amount like this (which is obviously what the fraudsters rely on.)

Called the bank (Nedbank) - they told me they will send me information within 3 working days as to who put this debit on my account, and want R5 to reverse it. I insisted they get a manager to call me back, will be going in personally as well as soon as they open my local branch. It's not acceptable that they can just let people place debit orders without checking for authorization. As I told them, they need to check that the person placing the debit order has either a physical signed document or an electronic one which can be proven to have come from me, or otherwise confirm that it is legitimate. As clearly what's happened here is someone with my bank account number has placed the debit order and simply informed the bank that I said OK.

I've read that you can ask the bank to get direct authorization from you before accepting a debit order. I will ask if this is true.
 
Same here - FNB. Reversed and stopped the debit order. No action yet on my FNB account as to my money being returned. It's strange since I've recently had to use 'debicheck' to authorise my debit orders - even to the point of authorising 77c for an overdraft protection plan - this is exactly the scenario I'd envisioned was the purpose of debicheck. Strange they didn't need authorisation for that? Also, FNB fraud line is a joke. I said I'd like to reverse and she explained I could do it on app. So got that part, but when I said I want to report fraud, she said we don't do debit order fraud? Er, what now? Very unhelpful.
