What's wrong with this app!!?? First I can't buy airtime or electricity, then I can't pay someone once-off, now I can't pay my own beneficiaries!!! This African Bank is going from BAD to WORST! Don't ever join this bank, BIG MISTAKE! Nothing gets resolved! You phone their Head Office and they also have glitches their where they can't do basic things. The bladdy Head Office of African Bank! What incompetent developers working for them!!!
