Today it was very worse situation for me..
I had to urgently withdraw some amount, so I went to HDFC ATM near by, though my card is from Axis bank.
After I entered amount for withdrawal, power went off and the 2 ATM machines went down.
Our cards got struck in the ATM machine. We searched for security, but no help. We searched for any emergency numbers inside ATM for assistance, the only number we found there was HDFC phone banking number. Calling the same, we had no option regarding ATM support.
Worried, if we can get our card back we waited for some time, power came but ATM machines never turned up. We dindnt know wat to do next, we were worried if ATM truns on later, someone else would get our cards hence we must not leave the ATM. waiting after half n hour we got no assistance even in internet for emergency numbers.
At last we pressed the panic button within ATM. Still we had no idea due to power issue if even tat would work.
After another 20-25 mins a security came in asking who pressed the panic button. We explained him the situation and he conveyed that we must not press panic button in such situation, but we had no other option.
Request bank to maintain an emergency number (without IVR) in all ATMs so that ppl could call them first for assistance and avoid such situations.
This is the ATM ID were we faced problem: S1ACKY04, KAZHAKUTTOM JUNCTION TRIVANDRUM.
