Handled as a *****

I received a settlement yesterday afternoon in my account. It is now frozen and I am told to wait for an investigation. My children are going hungry since im unemployed. I have been awaiting this money in order to make ends meet. How long does it take to contact the municipality and confirm the origin of the funds!? I am told to wait 7 days while my children starve. How difficult is it to contact a municipal institution? I am treated like a ******** in this regard. I am definitely changing banks.

I need a timeline because I did nothing wrong. I was told already that the matter is escalated and that I would be contacted, which is yet to happen. I see you are telling me the same issue. When will I be contacted? Tomorrow is Friday and I am told that weekends are not to be counted meaning that I am at Standard Bank's mercy.
