Standard Bank is introducing a whole lot of changes to their website. In the past they've had load problems when trying to impliment their changes, so this time I was quite relieved to hear that they were going with a gradual approach.

This morning I noticed they had brought in the new payments section. It worked fine at 7.30 this morning, but when I had some more to do at 8.30, I noticed things had slowed down considerable. Now, at 9.30, even logging in is a problem.

If you are trying to do online banking at Standard Bank today - expect problems.
