Social grant beneficiaries have been urged to migrate to Postbank Black Cards before the 31 August deadline, with the bank warning that SASSA Gold Cards will no longer work thereafter.
Postbank has urged social grant beneficiaries who have not yet replaced their SASSA Gold Cards with Postbank Black Cards to do so without further delay, warning that the opportunity to switch is rapidly drawing to a close ahead of the 31 August deadline.
The bank said the migration was essential to ensuring uninterrupted access to social grant payments, as SASSA Gold Cards are being phased out and will no longer work after the deadline.
Beneficiaries who fail to migrate to a Postbank Black Card before 31 August risk experiencing disruptions to their grant payments, Postbank said.
The bank also appealed to beneficiaries not to wait until the August payment dates or the final days of the migration period to replace their cards, warning that delaying the process could result in long queues and unnecessary congestion at service points.
