Inferior ATM's

Technological advances have brought us cash accepting ATM's. I regularly use this service with FNB, ABSA and Nedbank, and more recently Standard Bank. The machines that Standard Bank employ are clearly inferior. When making crucial payments this weekend the machines (not 1 but 2) jammed and swallowed my money (never had this problem with any other bank). I now have to wait 5-8 days until the bank's subcontractor \gets around\" to cashing up the machines. Until then the bank is quite content that they have provided me the necessary services, whether I am out of pocket or not is not their concern! If you are going to provide a service, at least try to put your best foot forward, for the sake of your clients. Cheaper isn't always better. And if you have wronged your client, try to resolve the problem in at least 24 hours!"
