The stupid banks ATM machine ate up my Offshore CC

[buddyjuf]

So I go to the bank to withdraw some money and make a money order, and when I put in my card in the ATM machine (my offshore card), the machine says card has been kept and I Should request a new one.

I go talk to the teller and she says there is nothing I can do, that I have to contact my bank and get a new card.

I explain to her how it will take 2-3 weeks for me to get a new card from my offshore bank, but she keeps saying there is nothing she can do.

What The Fuck??!?!?

[cranki]

beat her up, it helps in 9 out of 10 cases.

[wdsguy]

oh well tough luck.

[slapass]

Did you ask how they could take your property? What do they do with your card?

[After Shock Media]

Stay there and keep bitching, find managers bitch, find higher manager and bitch, move up the chain. Eventually one of them would open the damn machine.

[abyss_al]

they're all retards.. happened to us in vegas... they flagged the card because we were 'spending too much' but they couldn't take the block off until monday morning.. and this was a saturday night

[Chris]

they are lying
they can do something about it ( opening the atm machine ) but it is alot of work / paper work

they do it once a day
most banks do it in the morning

[Mr. Romance]

yeah cards kept by the machine are destroyed

What you want to do is call the IRS. They can order the bank to return the card. Just tell them that the bank machine ate your offshore bank card, and although you like skipping out on taxes, this process is really becoming a burden. I'm sure they'll set you right up.

[directfiesta]

I have accounts " offshore " ... I use checks also ... so write a check...

Now, if you a referring to Epass as your " offshore " , well you are fucked... in the ass

the banks do not / cannot touch the machines.. they are handled by a third party that comes and handles the atm machines

[dunefield]

She's right... There is nothing she can do...

My bank has opened them up for me before. Guess it depends on whom owns the machine.

There is nothing keeping em from getting the card out of the ATM and returning it - forget the servants and pay a visit to the manager and tell em their ATM is shit and you want your card back now.

Is the IRS now collecting taxes from Canadian citizens also?

[madawgz]

[crockett]

Your card has been revoked for buying ugly shoes.

[Sosa]

Naughty boy playing with offshore accounts while they remain resident on shore?? Wonder why... Tut tut.

How else is he going to afford the BMW build a TGP?

Mmmm.. as long as CRA don't notice the BMW - and the rims

Better to get a new floorboards or something that nobody would notice - but hell, showing off your floorboards isn't quite the same

[marketsmart]

go and get your card back man!

[jact]

a Scotiabank machine ate my Paypal card once, they weren't going to give it back but after 10 minutes of me in their faces they opened the machine and gave it back to me.

[xclusive]

Find thier personal email accounts and spam the fuck out of them. That will show them that it doesn't pay to fuck with the bdjuf

[jimthefiend]

Alot of banks wont do SHIT unless it's a card for THEIR bank, and apparently they can get away with it.

I left my Epass card in an atm a while back, realized it 5 minutes later and went back. Bitch said she didnt have to do shit and in fact had already cut it up.

[gecko]

tough luck.

[Spunky]

Start beating on it with a bat

[PlugRush Sascha]

That's fucked up. I guess you'll have to wait for your new card.

[minusonebit]

You know, for all the problem banks are, is amazing that people still continue to deal with them.

[Vitasoy]

That sucks, so far that has not happened to me. (knock on wood)

[rodney25]

Burn that evil machine...

[wedouglas]

I guess thats the price you pay for trying to hide money from the government

[squishypimp]

sorry to hear that man, you should complain to the bank who owns the ATM...

[DTK]

took less replies than i expected to bring up the tax evasion thing LOL

[Lykos]

yeah,every time atm eats your cc u need to call your bank,couse they directly send the card to your bank,thats international rule,same in eery country i think.

[dissipate]

they're all retards.. happened to us in vegas... they flagged the card because we were 'spending too much' but they couldn't take the block off until monday morning.. and this was a saturday night

Same thing happened to me in vegas.

Damn strippers =(

[notabook]

Why do people say ATM machine? The machine is redundant since ATM stands for Automated Teller Machine. Oh well, I guess it?s just like that taco I ate for lunch and it just ended up as shit.

[amateurcanada]

Offshore is international, unless there was a legal issue I believe its like stealing property from you, perhaps there was an error in the machine?

[NiggaRiche]

someone shoulda used a swiped card reader atm instead of the inserted ones

[WarChild]

I'm pretty sure that most cards are issued to you by the bank, but remain the property of the bank. They make take them from you at any time.

[reynold]

That's fucked up. I hope you already get a replacement.

[gooddomains]

that's weired

My bank also opened ATM for me.

[WWC]

You think banks are being pressured by gov. to hold offshore cards? which bank?

[DarkJedi]

yeah cards kept by the machine are destroyed

Mr. Romance

They are not destroyed.

It happened to me once, when I entered the PIN code wrong. I went to the bank office and they got my card the next day. You need to show them your ID to match with the name on the card.

[polish_aristocrat]

You need to show them your ID to match with the name on the card.

thats not always possible

[KaLi]

I actually own an ATM company and believe me its not easy to remove a stuck card from a machine, although it does depend on the machine.

The teller can open the machine, as it is most of their daily jobs to balance the ATM, but that depends on the bank as well. She probably wouldn't know what to do anyway.

I would just bitch and make them call a tech on the spot. There are techs in every city, and most of them have on-call contracts with banks and ATM owners. There's no reason to wait that long unless they have some sort of issue with your card.
