Online banking in South Africa is excellent - I was shocked when I moved to the US how archaic it is.
Transfers are a breeze, fast, and everyone does it.
Integration with cell phone infrastructure is also great.
- superuser2 16y agoI suspect transfers are archaic (inconvenient, expensive, and take several days or weeks to process) in the US because otherwise the credit card and payment processing industries would cease to exist.
- loewenskind 16y agoIt's really sad how many useless jobs exist in the US because someone thinks that these people would simply starve to death if they weren't able to e.g. hold a stop/slow sign at road construction sites.
- grinich 16y agoA specific bank in particular?
- joubert 16y agoMy experience is with Investec and Standard Bank. But I've heard good things about ABSA, Nedbank, and FNB as well. Competition is pretty strong, so fairly comparable across the board.
