Absa has taken my money!!

<p>I swiped my debit card at a doctors room. The amount was for R4595. The card machine gave me an error. I have the error slip. I noticed when I went to draw money from my bank account that the balance was less. I went to my local bank Absa Kloof Village Mall in Durban and requested a printout. It revealed that the transaction had gone through. R4595 has been taken off my bank account, but the doctor has never received the money!! 24 days later I still dont have my money and neither does the doctor!. The Manager at the Absa Kloof Village Mall Branch.(I did not get her name, a white lady) was extremely unhelpful and rude when I called on the 18 May 2017 to follow up and asked to speak to the first lady that dealt with me, Trenda. She mentioned that Trenda does not know who I am and will not be able to help me. Terrible service from your personal banker!. Imagine you cannot speak to your own bank! I will be moving to another bank as I shudder to think if am faced with a another banking issue what service I would receive,</p>
