Post ATMs

Something strange happened to me today, I'm curious if anyone can shed light on it for me. I went to use the ATM at my bank and it took my card, wouldn't give me my money, and kept the card, printing out something that said "unauthorized transaction, card retained". It is a new card, with more than plenty of cash in the account. WTF? Anyone know?

I suggest that you contact your bank ASAP, this happened to me once and it took about a week before it got sorted out. And this was before I got into computers, games etc....so there was money in the bank.

You bastard! I know where you live, and I'm on my way. I'm only making one stop: Darkpoets Lair (btw, dp, i send you my best after your ordeal), pick him and his slimy vacuum-cleaner attachments up. You're in for it now. Spamming my topics is one thing, sabotaging my finances is clearly another

LD: Yeah, but I'd used the card before without a problem. I don't know. Of course it happens after bank hours on the 3rd of July, so I can't do anything 'cuz the banks closed for the holiday. No cash, hmmph!
