Funds from abroad still not reflecting in account

On 5 October my daughter sent money to us from Qatar. I have been to the bank to inquire as to why the funds have not been put into the account. I was told to call international banking to check. I was on the line for over 45 min waiting to be helped. When I thought someone finally picked up my call it got dropped. This happened 4 times. I would like some assistance with my query and know how long it takes for fund to clear, it is 5 days now.

Thank you Rezona for all your assistance. Thanks to Rene Solms for getting back to me so quickly as well. Both these ladies were on their game yesterday. I appreciate the fast response to my complaint and I feel so bad that I had to go to such lengths as I know the people who have to resolve these complaints are not the ones who are responsible for the bad service and lack of assistance that cause the complaint. I appreciated that there are still people who care about customer service. Thanks to people like these I always feel that credit needs to be given when a Job is done well. Even if it is just keeping the client /customer updated and informed.
