Master Card not working - even after being at bank

On Sunday 10th Jan, my Master Card suddenly did not work after having put in fuel into my vehicle. I had to leave my watch to be able to come later to pay the account which I then did on Monday afternoon. What an embarrassment. I got an SMS on Tues 15:36 saying that we had to bring in the Master card to be re-activated.<br> I went into the bank (Saveways) on Wed 13 at 11:00 and after standing for almost an hour, I was helped. Soon there after I later went to Pick and Pay to buy a pie, the card still did not work. I went back to the bank at 12:30 on the same day and still I sit without the card working. Now suddenly I am told I need a new card and that will take a few days and in the mean time I sit without a Mastercard. From my previous experience a couple of months ago, it may take 5 weeks (The Grove in Pretoria).<br>
