• For many consumers, a bank is unfriendly and intimidating - and they feel enormously resentful about the rudeness and indifference shown to them by abrupt and busy staff.

• Extend period of the loan for year or more• Inquiry desk merely put through correction for
that particular account without alerting anyone to major systemic problem
• R 200 million to make the problem go away.
