If your card gets swallowed, do not ignore it or leave it for a few days until you have time to deal with it. Not only can this compromise the security of your account but it can also lead to your details being stolen and may also implicate you in any misgivings that take place after your card is lost.

There are certain things you should do right away when your card is swallowed. You may never need to use the information, but it is always good to have the information in case you are asked by your bank, the ATM machine operators or the police.

  • Do not be one of those people who take their cards on holiday without checking when they expire.
  • If possible, use an ATM inside of an actual bank branch or outside of the bank branch. This is especially a good idea if you are travelling abroad and using ATMs. There is less risk of fraud if you use an ATM inside a bank and if the ATM swallows your card, you can simply talk to one of the bank tellers to resolve the issue.
  • Sometimes if there is an error during your transaction, your card may be ejected when the error resolves itself, or when the machine is rebooted.
  • Do not keep all your cash in one place and on one card. Plus, keep at least a little paper cash around in case your card is swallowed or accounts are frozen.
  • If you are abroad, take your passport with you because they can use it as ID to verify your identity with the bank.
  • In some countries, it may be a good idea to use ATMs during the day because sometimes an employee may be able to retrieve it for you.
