In short: Standard Bank’s help centre shows an app flow to reverse a recent debit order framed as less than R3 000 in the last 60 days on the reverse-a-debit-order guide. Money should be back within 2 business days. Reversing once does not stop future debit orders. The same page’s FAQ still has a conflicting R1 000 / 40 days line — confirm live eligibility on Standard Bank’s page or in the app before you rely on either figure. Immediate payments cannot be reversed or cancelled on Standard Bank’s immediate-payment help. Not financial advice.

What this tool is for
The Standard Bank app feature described on their reverse-a-debit-order guide is for debit orders — not for undoing an ordinary EFT or an immediate payment you sent yourself. Debit-order reversals on that guide are limited to current or savings accounts. If you are looking at a payment you initiated, do not expect this debit-order screen to pull it back.
