Card retained in ATM

I tried to withdraw money from an ABSA ATM in Wierda Park on Monday 02 November 2015. As I inserted the card, the ATM displayed that it had retained my card. The printed message said that my card had expired, and that I had to order an new one online or visit the branch. <br> <br> I was flabbergasted and infuriated!! I had received absolutely no notifications from ABSA that my card was going to expire. I have had the card for well over 15 years and nothing on the card indicated an expiry date. <br> <br> What happens if I were trying to withdraw money for an emergency or were away from home or overseas?? I would have been stranded!!! As it was, I had to borrow money from a friend. Embarrassing and demeaning!!<br> <br> How dare ABSA do something like this?? I have been with ABSA for at least 40 years, definitely since it was Al**** Bank and even before that. How dare they treat any customer with this level of disdain and disrespect??<br> <br> I will be closing all my accounts as soon as possible, failing an adequate response. The very least I expect is that a new card is delivered to me asap.<br> <br> Let's see if I get any response other than the standard meaningless copy-and-pasted reply that \we'll look into it"...<br> """
