    Sorry to hear work is rubbish ☹️

    I can’t believe your mum still doesn’t have access to her bank account. That’s absolutely dire customer service 😠

    That is unbelievable that your mum still does not have access to the account. 
    Time to escalate I think. 

    Roll on the end of term.

    I'm guessing she won't give you a power of attorney!
    At least it isn't TOO long until the end of term.

    A friend gave me a good tip once, when I was frustrated by a bank.She suggested that I call and ask for the Complaints Department. It worked!

    Very best of luck
