HOLDING MY FUNDS HOSTAGE

Not receiving OTP. Called them, they insist the problem is on MTN's side even though I am getting SMSes from other banks and online shopping sites. Called MTN, they advised NO - PROBLEM is not on their side. Called Tymebank - am told NO DEFINITELY on MTN's side. Called MTN - and so it went. Called Tymebank, I want to close my account as I am unable to access my funds, they send an SMS "declining" the account closure!!! So I get SMS refusing to close my account, but not OTPs... How about that. Basically they are holding my funds hostage as I am unable to access my funds, and they refuse to close my account and transfer my funds to another account of my choice.

Reviewer Update
So more than 24 hours later, and despite promises to resolve, I haven't had any feedback or any word from Tymebank regarding access to my funds.

Should I not have access to my funds by tomorrow this time, I will be taking this matter to the Ombudsman.

THIS IS PREJUDICING MY FAMILY AND PREVENTING ME FROM PAYING BILLS. IF MY ELECTRICITY GETS CUT I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ACCESS LIFE SAVING DEVICES...
