Absa - unathorised debits and exorbitant reversal charges

I am sick and tired of ABSA and unauthorized debits going through my accounts. To top this off I am being charged R30 to reverse something which i should be able to reverse from my online banking or cellphone banking. Every single month ABSA has a "new "debit order with a supposedly new reference from what was previously blocked. every month I am forced to go to the nearest ABSA branch with constantly ****ty service, long queues and staff who have no regard for us your customers. And why am I being charged for using internet banking???? wasn't this developed for my convenience??? what is the R100+ deduction with reference internet banking for?????

I demand a response and please reverse the charge for reversals because your team is unable to develop a program that protects us from unauthorized debits.... and please may I not be fed the story "waiting on the approval of Debi check"...... you are feeding us stories and charging us an arm and a leg for shear incompetence from your team.

in addition to my private response,,, Please reverse the R138.78 "internet banking "fee... and reverse all the Naedos debits (how is it that ABSA is the only bank we cannot reverse our own debits??) that you allowed to go through my account as of 01 August 2018. I want my money bac****!!!!! I have had it with ABSA!!!!!! Reverse this or I will go all over social media and I'll definitely change banks.
