Standard Bank *****ing from clients

https://businesstech.co.za/news/industry-news/452300/get-more-than-you-bargained-for-with-standard-bank-this-black-friday/

I thought the Standard Bank virtual card was an amazing service after *****uelnt activity on my normal credit card. That was until I starting noticing that they are not reimbursing unused pre-authorised amounts and when I reached out to them to query this, multiple times, not even an acknowledgement of my query was received. They are technically committing theft by keeping my money. I've given them 20 days to respond which expires tomorrow and still no response. On Monday I'm going to the ombudsman.

Reviewer Update
Sadly actions speak louder than words, 20 days since I made my first query and this is the first response I am getting. Quite predictable actually because anything that is publicly posted affects your PR. If client service and urgency were important to you, things would not have escalated to this point. Unfortunately your message provides no reassurance and from my understanding will not count in terms of the ombudsman requirements.
