I knew things were going too well with ABSA for too long. Sold off an ETF on the 13th (Monday), cash cleared by the 16th (Thursday), money was transferred out of BDA but not in my bank account yet (22nd, today). So basically, my money is either stuck in purgatory at Bankserv or they transferred to the wrong account. Either way - more phone calls and admin from my side.
...and I had such high hopes for moving my TFSA to them. Now the trust is gone...again
