1time non-refund: a user's experience

Fin24 user Elsie van Eck writes:

IT IS with absolute disgust that I am writing this email.

After reading and listening to everything about 1Time Airlines over the weekend, I phoned First National Bank this morning, believing that my bank will help me sort this problem out.

On my first attempt I get told that FNB has not been in contact with 1Time Airlines and can’t do anything for me.

I then read on News 24 that along with Standard Bank, Absa and Nedbank, FNB claimed that they will help their clients.  This leads to my next phone call. 

This time I get told to phone 1Time Airlines (which we all know is not a happening thing at the moment), I then refer to their statement on Twitter. Still nothing. I then request to speak to a manager.

After explaining my situation I get told to send an email to a certain address, which I duly did. 

The email has been seen by Fin24 and reads:
