ABSA Bank - FICA Documents; blocking clients banking app!

On the 15th of May 2025 my mum was asked to submit documents for FICA to ABSA - which she did. (in the process her banking was blocked) She was told it would be back to normal within 48 hours - it has now been 144 HOURS LATER and she is still unable to use her banking app or her bank cards. This is beyond ridiculous!

Thank you for your reply - although it does seem generic.... also saying a 2 to 3 day response time to sort the issue out would mean that my mum essentially might not have access to her banking cards for more than a week. How do you expect people to live like this?

I have phoned the number posted in your reply - however it is not reachable!

My mom has now email *** and received an automated response.

Where can I get assistance on getting her hold lifted? Her documents were submitted at the bank, so I cannot understand how this is still ongoing?!?!?!?
