People who receive social grants from SASSA have been reminded that these payments can be made into accounts at any bank.  The beneficiaries don't have to use the new Postbank black cards that SASSA has been converting to over recent months.

Members of parliament were at pains to remind beneficiaries —who have not yet migrated to the new Postbank black cards—to open accounts with a bank of their choice in order to continue receiving their social grants without disruption.

The Social Relief of Distress (SRD) Grant, (It used to be the R350 grant but is now commonly referred to as the R370 grant) is very important to millions of people living in South Africa.
