The digital age has really changed the way we bank, making it so much easier, more secure and more accessible through online banking and mobile banking apps. You can check your account balances, pay bills and access services from wherever you are. But even with all these amazing digital banking options, there are still a few services that require you to pop into a branch.

Let’s look at those services, before we go through all the products and services you can access digitally. Our ‘digital when you want it, human when you need it’ strategy aims to provide a perfect fit for your needs.
 

What services can be accessed only in a branch?

There are only a few reasons that require a visit to a Nedbank branch, including:

• changing ownership of your account, and
• unblocking your digital profile if there’s been fraud on your account.

The good news is that most of our branches are equipped to stay open and online during load-shedding, which is one less frustration to worry about if you do need to visit a branch.

While we recommend going digital whenever possible, if you do need to visit a branch, we’re here for you. With fewer clients requiring in-person or phone support, your banking experience is becoming more efficient and streamlined.

If you want to visit a Nedbank branch, we suggest pre-booking an appointment through the Money app or Online Banking, to make sure that you receive prompt service at your preferred date and time.
