When you push your card forcefully inside the atm card slot instead of allowing the machine to take the card when we slot it in half way |

It is an instruction programmed into the ATM by the bank to forestall fraud. It usually occurs to bad ATM card, when you enter too many wrong pins etc |

Only in Nigeria. Everything about Nigeria is upside down. Of course Nigerian bank atm refused to release my card like on two different occasions. On the contrary, during all my years abroad, no foreign atm ever swallowed my card. Another thing to note is that Nigerian atm dispense money before releasing your card. Thereby making so many people out of haste take their money and forget to take their card. The opposite is the case with overseas atm. They release your card first. Obviously in that scenario, it’s impossible for one to take card and forget to take his money 1 Like |

Funny that I bumped into this topic. Couple of minutes ago, the guy just in front of me had his card retained by a first bank ATM. He hasn't even pressed any button. He slid in the card, and instead of the password menu to pop up, the machine still remained at the "insert your card" on screen instruction. It would have been me had I been the next in line. 1 Like |

My brother we all understand what you mean, but it's actually called card retraction , there are five (5) reasons for this and there is no 6th 1) a customer using wrong PIN more than the required times (3 times) 2) Terminal's Internet glitch ( network seizure after transaction had commenced by the customer) 3) Terminal's Faulty card reader 4) Broken /Dirty looking/Worn out card chip of a customer, and 5) Power outage . Note: if it is your bank's ATM and it's a working day you can get back your debit card upon filling a form at the customer service unit, While if its not your bank sorry just get a new card . 2 Likes |

I wanted to use an ATM. As soon as I inserted the card, bam! The ATM stop singing. There was no one around to ask. I waited for plenty minutes and nothing happened. Fvck! I needed the money badly cus I had to pay someone 40k from it. When I became certain that this machine is not gon return my card, I left. Meanwhile the card belongs to my friend and he's away from town. I later saw d security and I narrated my ordeal, then, instructed him to alert me when the ATM attendants shows. Next day, the bankers showed up to reload the ATM vault. I rushed down after the security alerted me. After the whole operation, the engineer told me that they don't return card. Oboy I told him what the swallowed card had caused me. He saw how angry and disappointed I looked. He looked at me and said, you made some trouble with the other sets of police officers who escorted us down here some times ago. I don't want no drama again. Take your card. I collected the card issue a stern warning on the ATM machine. Some ATM machine can be nasty. 1 Like |

Re: Why Does Bank ATM Swallow Cards? by oluwaahmed: 12:18pm On Sep 25, 2021 |
inoki247: It's a regulatory(CBN) order. The reason is that a destroyed card cannot be used to perpetrate fraud. Its a very serious offence if there's a fraud on that retracted card cos it was not destroyed. The banker who released the card without destroying is liable to go to jail. 1 Like |
