I'm sorry that happened—the banking system sucks. You can just buy Litecoin instead and swap.
Personally, I'm going to look into RetoSwap, but I appreciate Kraken sticking it out keeping it listed. I might not have gotten any Monero if not for Kraken.
I made a comment about that here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47858801)

Buy some other crypto like Litecoin then exchange it for Monero, there are quite a few exchanges around that do it anonymously.
...such as?
Binance offers XMRUSDT pair.

I've seen https://kyc.rip but haven't tried it so far.
That's just using Trocador with referral fees.
You could just use Trocador directly and skip the "hackerish" aesthetic and save 2% on fees.
Revolut -> USDC -> Monero via exchange
Kraken?
The onboarding isn't that easy and KYC always takes time.
Monero got delisted there
