Money retracted

I deposited R22k at a Standard Bank ATM on the 27th of February 2023, soon after I inserted the money, the ATM put a display on the screen that "money was being retracted", after that nothing on the screen, no receipt, nothing, it was like I didn't even use the ATM, it literally went back to the initial display when you 1st get to use the ATM. ALL MY MONEY GONE. I called the security guard and he helped writing out the ATM number and advised that I came back the next day. 1st thing in morning I went back to Standard Bank to explain what happened and the consultant assured me that my matter would be resolved in a matter of 24 hours. The following day which was Wednesday I received a message from Standard Bank that my matter had been resolved. To my surprise and disappointment when I went back to the bank on Thursday March 2nd 2023, the consultant told me they only received R15.500 from the R22k I had deposited. I refused to accept that as that's NOT the money I deposited. She then told me that the matter will be further investigated. I am beyond dissatisfied with the service of Standard Bank, it's been a week now and my money has still not been recovered. I need help with recovering ALL the money I had deposited.

I got a call earlier this morning about my matter being resolved, however the consultant that called me said she'd send me an email regarding the matter being resolved, how ALL the money has been deposited into the account I sent to, proof of payment, basically a confirmation of everything. I still have not received the email, I'm getting a little anxious because she had said I'll get the email 10 minutes after the call, but it's been an hour now. I also must add that the lady was very helpful and pleasant, but I really need that confirmation email, because I have to send the proof of payment to the business I deposited to. Your response would be appreciated,in fact the confirmation email would be GREATLY appreciated.

Regards

Hi, I come back!
Thabisile Nxumalo, the consultant that handled my case did get back to me with the email that my money has been retrieved and I should go back to Standard Bank to get the confirmation letter that payment has been refunded, to also receive the proof of payment that I was stressing of. Everything seems in order, I trust everything will go accordingly, if not,I'll be back again. But otherwise, thank you so much Thabisile. You did worry me a little when you didn't send the email at the time you promised, but I got it, that's all that matters. Your service was excellent 👌🏽
