Delay in returning funds - between Pontius and Pilate

About two weeks we transferred funds to Allan gray in error. A notification of the error, and request for the funds to be returned, was sent on Friday November 10th. Confirmational documents were requested by AG on Monday 13th, and provided the same day but no reply was forthcoming. Two days later (November 15th), after a reminder was sent, AG referred to a reply of the 13th, confirming that they need 3-5 days to process the request. A call earlier today (21st) indicated that the request was still ¨being processed¨. These funds are required urgently - just how long does Allan Gray need to perform a simple refund?
