The notice from Sassa reads: “Postbank is experiencing technical challenges affecting Sassa social grant payments”.

These intermittent technical issues are making it difficult for some beneficiaries to withdraw their funds from ATM’s and retailers.

These technical issues are affecting all grant recipients, including those receiving the SRD R350 grant.

However, they also stated that Postbank’s technical team is working hard to resolve the issue, and they will confirm once the technical issue has been resolved.

Lastly, social grant recipients who use the Sassa A Gold Card at Post Office branches, should be able to receive their payments as usual and should not be affected by the above technical issue.”
