Absa wants you to do banking on Twitter

@absa please transfer all rpm's money into my bond kthxbaai
 
I think its quite clever. While its not something i need to use often. It could come in handy
 
Why the hate? It will only return a balance and let you buy airtime (for yourself only). It's not like they're going to let you actually transact on social media yet - that would open a huge can of worms in terms of security and the onus of liability...
 
6 months form now. Anon hacked millions of absa clients, funds being held ransom or soemthing like that

K4k man, you have no idea how banking systems work. This would just be a couple of API calls to a few harmless services, which in turn would have their own secure, internal calls to the back end. If they somehow haxx0rs your Twitter account, what's the worst that could happen - they see your bank balance or buy you some airtime? Pfft...
 
This seems like an incredibly silly idea.

If FNB offered this I certainly wouldn't use it.
