Oddly enough, the same silent line keeps popping up with bogus bank offers that vanish the moment you answer. Callers masquerade as Standard Bank or other familiar institutions, pitching credit‑card upgrades before cutting the connection. Never share personal details or account numbers with an unknown caller – legitimate banks will never demand that over the phone. Use your phone’s block feature or a third‑party app to silence the number, and report the nuisance to your carrier and the local consumer protection agency. If you’re unsure, hang up and call the official bank number you already have saved.

Individual claimed affiliation with Standard Bank - offered to raise my credit card ceiling. Unusual contact number. Seemed highly dubious. Ended the conversation.
Annoying nuisance call.
Unfavorable assessment
Total scam pretending to be from Nedbank/Jet Card
Ongoing pestering
Rang to offer uCount rewards from Standard Bank, requested my email and birth date. I said I'd handle it in-branch, and he hung up.
The caller claimed they're enhancing my Gold Std Bank card to platinum level, but I own no such card. Foreign accent detected; seems highly suspicious, likely a fraud. Stay alert!
