DEADLINE FOR SASSA GRANT BENEFICIARIES TO SWITCH TO POSTBANK BLACK CARD
Postbank has recently announced that they have set a deadline for SASSA grant beneficiaries to replace their Gold Card with the Black Card.
“Beneficiaries are encouraged to get their new card as soon as possible because the cards should definitely be out of the system by the 31st of March this year. So use the opportunity between now and the end of March to get the new Black Card,” Postbank Spokesperson Bongani Diako told VOC Breakfast on 7 January 2025.
According to Diako, it’s crucial for grant recipients to replace their cards before the deadline that they have set. This is so that they don’t experience any hassles when receiving their payments after the end of March.
