Judge orders KZN couple to pay back to bank R862,000 deposited in error

A KwaZulu-Natal couple have been ordered to repay R862,000 which was deposited into their accounts because of a First National Bank app “malfunction”.

Gorven said Sicelo had operated both his and Nikita’s FNB bank accounts, making use of the bank's app. The bank sued, alleging “unjustified enrichment”. While the Khophos denied having knowledge of the malfunction or that there had been a duplication of payments, they abandoned this defence at trial and admitted they had received the money.

He said when he approached Thomas, she could not “trace the payments” and she suggested keeping the money in the safe, in case a claim was made. She entered the amounts into a diary, he alleged. “There are several inherent improbabilities in Khopo’s version. No prudent bank manager would have taken cash from a client without giving a receipt. If she had noted it in a diary, that would have been an official document, kept in a safe place and never destroyed. There would have been a proper investigation.
