Not a single other company spam calls me as much as my bank. @FNBSA | @Rb__sa I've had 5 calls today - and had the phone put down on me when I answer. This is absurd, every few weeks I get a spate like this and I can't even tell you what your people want because they hang up.

Hi @Rb__sa Today I have received FIVE calls from a Truecaller-verified FNB number. As soon as I answer, the number hangs up. How can I be removed from what is clearly a robot-calling list??

@Rb__sa @FNBSA This week I have received NINE calls from a verified number associated with your brand. Apart from two instances where I hung up, EVERY call has dropped as I've answered. Please help me make it go away.

When I (FINALLY) spoke to a call centre agent after last week's spam call fiasco and said I was not interested in the product, I thought I'd be left alone. I was wrong. I don't even know if I can safely block this number in case it is also used for non-sales comms @Rb__sa @FNBSA

If you spot the bus you will spot the new CapeTalk logo... and then you can win some cash. How? It's simple: Take a pic of the logo, post it to socials and remember to tag CapeTalk and YOU may get some money. T's and C's apply. #SpotTheBusSpotTheLogo only on CapeTalk,

Hi Team @FNBSA and @Rb__sa - I have now received two fraudulent / fake "Just For You" push notifications from your app of incoming payments... How on earth is this possible? (I have obviously not received R145 000 into my account from Miss Nka).

Today I'm attempting the dual horror of Home Affairs and the Traffic Department. Is it possible? Is it sane? 30 minutes at Home Affairs and the queue hasn't moved. This bodes... Poorly.

Finally made it into the Home Affairs building after just shy of six hours in the queue outside. Staff just told an angry queuer that there's still a chance we won't be able to be helped today. Send positive vibes. It's been a long day.

Final tally - 6 hr 18 minutes to get my new ID in my hand (HOORAY!) Flushed with victory, I charged off to the Traffic Department only to be told I needed my marriage certificate to change my name on my driver's... I was so close. Ya win some. Ya lose some.

At Home Affairs, booked an appointment for 10-11 and walked straight in with that VIP feeling. And then that old chestnut: "The system is offline". Will we make it before I need to be back at the office at 12? Stay tuned.

Definitely moving again, just one more person in front of me. Please send prayers and offerings to the Home Affairs system gods.

And I'm done! 1 hr 20 min start to finish, and that's with 30 minutes of system downtime. The appointment bookings (if you can get one!) have absolutely changed the game.
