R150+ bounced debit fee charge

So I'm a freelance worker, and because of that most of income has stopped during the lockdown period. Towards the end of April 2020 two of my debit orders bounced. On May 1 2020 I was charged R308.50 for the bounced orders. That comes to R154.25 per debit order. In the past I have had debit orders bounce, but the fee was much less. Why is it suddenly so high? How am I supposed to buy food and manage my finances when Absa does this?
