Dr Anele Mngadi recently opened up about her fair share of trials and tribulations with Standard Bank, after she purchased a luxury vehicle.
The retired university professor and philanthropist, who emerged victorious in a court battle with Standard Bank, recently took to her social media pages to share how she was almost defrauded by one of the big banks in South Africa.
In her series of videos, she revealed that she paid cash for the car. She added that when she went to collect the car, the dealership told her that they returned her international payment and suggested that she uses a local bank to finance her car.

“But then because I’m not domiciled in South Africa, I had to use my foundation as a buyer and then sign as surety,” she explained.
She also shared that a day later, she received a letter citing that Standard Bank approved her loan.
“On April 15, 2015 I went to collect the car, signed all the legal documents. At the end of the month when they deducted, they took nearly double the agreed installment”.
Upon this discovery, she called the bank to inquire about the matter. To her surprise, the bank said they do not know of her. On the second and third month, they deducted double the amount again, prompting her to pen a letter of demand to the bank.
