Unless the recipient has made an honest mistake I've probably lost my money, and the only thing left to do is call them out. They're a big company.....

on country to country wires sometimes the $$ goes to a 'holding' bank before the transfer to the destination bank . . this was the case for a wire from canada to us . . had to go to a federal reserve bank before the $$ could be placed in my account . . no big deal there are records of all transactions
