@WOOLWORTHS_SA they don’t care if their products may harm people. Over many years been tweeting about plastic wrapping being dangerous because it splinter and falls into food. In the past I had to remove plastic from my mouth. #Woolworths I anticipate a DM.

A picture tells a million stories @FNBSA @RMBCIB Contact me and I will tell you how to fix this!!

When I get a message from @PayPal to contact my bank @FNBSA because there is a problem with a transaction my blood pressure rises as I realise that I could be on the phone for hours being pushed from one call centre to another.

[SA_Observer @SAObserver1]

I dont believe Ill get any help from #FNB. Maybe @RMBCIB will help. So far been on call for 2 hours being pushed from pillar to post. One operator could help with Authentication not working after speaking to 3 others.

@XFreeze Oh @elonmusk you just want to make sure that your EV will have more routes so you can continue to grow the MV market. What about places like Tokyo that already have 3D cities … but with eTrains that carry millions of people throughout the city. Don’t buy your argument #SAFA

The world is begging to view the #UnitedStates in this way - professional & engaging (maybe political) leadership internationally versus a more “tyrannical“ “shooting from the hip” approach of President Trump

[SA_Observer @SAObserver1]

When President Trump says “America first” does he mean “stuff the rest of the world”?https://t.co/g2OQwvoRkK #america #trump

@LinkedIn a pathetic technology!!! I am signed on and viewing the technology on my PC but cannot get logged in with the correct password on my iPhone. Why because it wants me to do “1000” of bus security checks that are not working. A compromised technology. #linkedin

How significant is the continuous & small incremental error that occurs when using #AI and large language models #LLM - monumental - in the future humans may not be able to distinguish right from wrong or truth from fiction...Lord forbid!! @OpenAI @CAIS @AnthropicAI

[SA_Observer @SAObserver1]

How disappointing!! Was looking forward to going to @RWC2027 in Australia @WorldRugby, but it is so weak a draw that to travel all that way and then pay those ticket prices not worth it.@Springboks. I hope that I’m wrong but I have to see this as being a flop of a #RWC2027

7/Eventually phoned & got through to KYC FICA dept after 7 authorizing questions - reason @FNBSA had a 13 year old address on the system? Asked them to resend info required, said it would take up to 3 days to resend Email? Come #FNB you have to do better!! @RMBCIB

[SA_Observer @SAObserver1]

6/Went to @FNBSA branch, system did not indicate what documents are needed. Contacted KYC FICA dept. Eventually was told what documents were required. Did an Internet search for what these documents were, no real help. Got this info to contact them, number not operational 🫣🫣🫣

[SA_Observer @SAObserver1]

5/My recent experience is that no one has bothered to reply. How else do i get hold of @FNBSA, they dont register any number that deals with these complaints. Please FNB, somebody please help me!! 🙏🙏🙏@RMBCIB

@DisprinXtra What about aircraft safety that has caused so many other passengers to be arrested @flysaa @OfficialSACAA

1/This is a sad thread @RMBCIB I had a stressful 2025. One of the most stressful things I dealt with is dealing with @FNBSA call centres. Here I am again in 2026 being stressed out by #FNB call centres. Who do I call? My business banker - he's not been available for 6 months.🧵

[SA_Observer @SAObserver1]

4/Im so dissappointed I cannot express the way im feeling about @FNBSA at this moment. I truly hope that someone will contact me. You see the only way I can resolve the matter is 1/through my business bank 2/go to a branch. @RMBCIB
