Woolwich Cash Machine
Has any else had problems with this machine? I put my card in there yesterday it was kept and it told me to contact my bank. There was not other explination. I now have to go without a card until I get sent a new one.

Did you put your PIN in? If not then I guess the machine has just gone mad - otherwise expect your current account to be ransacked by the morning...
Fact is, the Woolwich machine is the worst one in Town - it works on geological timescales and even it's peeps are rubbish. I'm surprised it doesn't dole out Groats.
I had a similar 'gimme my fookin' card back' experience at the Abbey machine a few weeks ago. I stuffed my card in and it did bugger all for 5 minutes... It was a Friday night and I was on the verge of breaking into Cash Convertors to fund my evening when it just spat my card out - genuinely after 5 minutes. That's a long time to be standing still in Maidenhead St.
Computers! There's no future in 'em.

Nowhere else would allow me to stay...
Actually Wifeys' furiously knocking out little Lemonsa little earlier than anticipated thus retarding my extraction.
In the meantime I get to do critiques of ATM's and off-licenses.

My little castle is being punted by Steven Oates though Stephen Hawking would have probably been a better choice... I'm assuming that was the thrust of your query.... Otherwise, you should be aware that I am straight and impervious to your grooming techniques.

Eh? "Helps you sell.." I wasn't selling my house through the Woolwich ATM... I'm confused.

Nothing to apologise for fella - you can mention my 'tender online' all you wish. Anyway, that Woolwich ATM eh...? It's too bloody high up for a start.

Its always worth having a good poke around the card slot with the edge of your card to make sure theres not a lebanese reader in there.
