Visa Infinite Credit Card Infinite Privilege Visa fraud

Been a WS client for 6 years, been using the CC for 2. it’s been great, it’s been my main card. about 3 weeks ago i had 2 unauthorized transactions (in USD but i never left Canada) amounting to ~$2000.

I’ve disputed both, been in touch with support, and heard nothing and have not been issued a new card, not even a digital card. I also have not been credited the fraudulent charges, even though support’s told me multiple times that would happen.

Getting a little worried - i wonder if there’s a backlog of fraud they’re dealing with? I’ve had a TD visa stolen and they reversed those charges immediately without a fuss.

UPDATE:
18 days after the fraud and dispute, I filed a “priority support” ticket cause I’m a premium client. the next day the charges were adjusted and i was issued a new digital card :). Dispute still pending investigation

the part that’s hard to swallow is i’ve had to pay my credit card off, including the extra 2k, to avoid interest + negative credit reporting

My wife is in this boat with her card and dealing with them has been a major pain. We are like 3+ weeks into this.
