Need money back urgently

Absa is making my life a nightmare, I made a purchase of R9800 on the 12 July 2019 and the money came off from my available balance and the same amount went off on the 30 Sept and when I went to the Heidelberg branch, I'm being send from pillar to post, I'm being told that the owner of the shop must write the letter to comfirm that he got the money once and not only that but I must give him my card number n my ID number to put on that letter, isn't that compromising my personal information?

The system is so pethetic that they can't pick it up on the system, if some one can help me, I need my money back and close the account.

Thank you for getting back to me,I'm not happy with your reply/investigation

Yes the amount appears once on my statement, remember when you swipe it goes to pending transactions ,the amount is on the statement and the 1 that needs to be released back to my account is on the pending transactions which is R9850 ,that's the1 where I'm told the owner of the shop needs to write a letter and which he did but its not sufficient because I need to give him my ID number and card number which I'm not gonna do.
