While withdrawing cash from ATM, sometimes the situation arises when the debit card or credit card gets stuck inside the machine. In such a situation, many people often get nervous, call the guard or rush to block the card. Very few people know that in such a condition the card can be recovered without any problem. For this, it is important that you immediately give correct information to the bank and follow the necessary procedure. So today let us tell you what should you do first if your ATM card gets stuck in the machine while withdrawing money.
Why do ATM cards get stuck in the machine?
Many people have questions in their mind that why credit cards and debit cards get stuck in the ATM while withdrawing money. Actually there could be many reasons behind this. Many times the ATM card gets stuck due to machine link failure or technical glitch. Apart from this, due to taking too much time in filling the card details, the card also gets stuck in the machine. At the same time, sometimes power cut, connection error, repeatedly entering wrong PIN or network problem also becomes the reason for the card getting stuck.
What is the first thing to do if a card gets stuck in the machine?
If your card also gets stuck in the ATM machine, then first of all call the customer care of your bank and give complete information along with the location of the ATM. After giving the information, the bank gives you two options in which the first option is to cancel the card and get a new card. The second option is to start the process of getting the card withdrawn. If you feel that there is a possibility of the card being misused, you can get it blocked immediately. You usually get the new card at your address in 7 to 10 days. Apart from this, you can also go to the branch and get a new card on the same day.
If the card is stuck in your bank’s ATM
If your card gets stuck in your own bank’s ATM, it is easier to get it back. In such a time, you inform the team that deposits cash in the bank ATM and after that the team takes out the card and deposits it in the bank. You can withdraw the card by going to the bank and showing your identity card. But if the card is stuck in some other bank, then that bank sends the card to your home branch, after which you can get the card from your branch.
