Not SAP fully as yet, part of their initial launch product is on SAP. However their primary payments systems still run on their ancient mainframe systems.

Most of their transactional accounts still run on mainframe along with all the rest of their products.

SAP cant handle the volumes that the backend systems have to process. Remember. it's not just internal transactions, but also collections and disbursements of all externall companies that rely on debit orders, M65's ,EFT's etc.

This pushed me over the edge, I activated the app for ios ( that I had downloaded previously) and it worked amazingly well.

I've tried the app, but can't seem to link my accounts... Keep getting technical errors.

Seems Standard Bank is down yet again. I am unable to access IB or the app. Anyone else having issues??

All these assumptions are amusing. The down time had nothing to do with any of their app servers.

Outsourcing, for starters.

You get what you're paying for.
