Ray..

First of all, you need to calm down. This has happened, and can't be reversed. Now you have to deal with it. Follow the good advice posted above, and things will sort themselves out..Your bank is not at fault, but they will have procedures in place to deal with this type of fraud. You have not lost your money.

Ring your branch and speak to the Sales & Services Manager, as soon as you can, and explain the situation. I am sure they will take up the case immediately.

I have spoken to my wife about this..she is a Bank Manager, and it would appear yours is in no way an isolated case..unfortunately it is happening far more frequently than it should.

Best of luck mate..
