Three sets of queues for banking and people seem prepared to wait.

Edit:

Only one queue was for the ATM and it was the shortest.

I all seriousness though, is switching to Capitec worth it? I have been with FNB my entire life and getting real tired. I want to switch banks, but not sure which one.

I use bank zero. It’s pretty nice not to worry about paying monthly fees and the app is functional. No frills. I really like it.

Compared to my main FNB account. Which shows me ads like. “you sure your kids are banking safe?! Maybe they’re on the crack or those TIK pills?!?!? Sign up for this secure account with us and our people for just 300 a month.. you’ll need 10k to open it though, BUT THINK OF YOUR CHILDREN!!” And I just fucking logged in to see how much money I got left
