TJO FNB IS EXHAUSTING

I noticed 2 transactions on my account with a reference for excess fees amounting to about R350. After chatting to a consultant on the app, I was notified that a merchant delayed taking funds from my account and only took it when I didn't have funds. What is confusing is that each time I make a transaction, I receive an email showing amount deducted and remaining balance. The merchant delaying to deduct money from my account shouldn't be my problem since I had money in my account and it was deducted on my side. FNB, please do better. Don't take our hard earned money like this. It really isn't fair.

UPDATE: I got a call from a consultant regarding the transactions I queried. Their explanation didn't make any sense, you have to be high on drugs for it to make sense. I go to a store with money in my account. I swipe, funds are deducted from my account, nothing is reversed. Then I'm told when the merchant took the money it was days after i made the transaction and i had no money. So where did the money that was deducted from my account go?

It wasn't reversed on my side. Any time one tries to make a payment without money in their account, the transaction is declined.

Please don't contact me or reach out with stories that don't make sense.
