Official Capitec legal and formal correspondence route
Which route you use depends on what the legal matter is:
- A dispute or complaint about your account: start with the 24hr Client Care Centre on 0860 10 20 43 or ClientCare@capitecbank.co.za.
- A request for records: this is a PAIA (Promotion of Access to Information Act) request, handled under Capitec’s PAIA manual.
- Formal letters, for example from an attorney: address them to Capitec Bank at P O Box 12451, Die Boord, Stellenbosch, 7613, or deliver them to 5 Neutron Road, Techno Park, Stellenbosch, 7600.
What you need before contacting Capitec
For a records request, Capitec’s PAIA manual says all requests must be made by email to the PAIA address given in the manual, on the Information Regulator’s prescribed Form 02, with valid legal and identity documents. If you are asking on someone else’s behalf, you need proof of authority such as a special power of attorney.
PAIA does not apply to records requested for criminal or civil proceedings, or to requests made after such proceedings have started (section 7 of the Act). In those cases your attorney will need to use the court process instead.
The PAIA manual (version V06, effective 3 February 2026) covers Capitec Bank Ltd, Capitec Bank Holdings Ltd, Capitec Ins, Capitec Insurance Holdings, Capitec Life, Capitec Properties and Capitec Rental Finance.
Step-by-step contact process
- For an account dispute or complaint, call the 24hr Client Care Centre on 0860 10 20 43 or email ClientCare@capitecbank.co.za first.

- If the records request is refused, ask for an internal review within 60 days of the refusal, as the PAIA manual sets out.
- For formal letters, write to Capitec Bank, P O Box 12451, Die Boord, Stellenbosch, 7613, or deliver to 5 Neutron Road, Techno Park, Stellenbosch. The switchboard is 021 809 5900.
