A couple of years back I was writing some software for a company who's main clients were insurance companies. The profit and loss graphs were staggeringly one sided. You know they are making a ton of cash, but I probably didn't expect it to be such a high profit margin.

I sold my soul a little bit on the contract :(
Shoulda written some viruses into it.

Left 60 bucks at the ******* ATM, over it now, but was pretty annoyed not long after discovering I'd left it there.
If you don't take it within 30 seconds, the ATM will usually suck it back in, with no change to your account balance....It's happened to me on a good dozen occasions.

It was on Swanston St - don't fancy my chances, and my account balance hasn't gone back up, so someone has probably nicked it, can't really blame them though.

Ring up the branch....Give them your account details & ATM machine address & time of withdrawal.....They'll have it on CCTV....Sometimes it can take 48-72 hours for your account to right itself.......Especially if it happened on a Friday night.

Tuna.

Who the f*** eats that shit and enjoys it? It smells like cat food.

Tuna bake is even worse, it smells like heated up cat food.

It stinks up every goddamn place that it is eaten in by selfish disgusting tuna eating f***wits.

Anyone that eats tuna, tuna bake or any other tuna related shit should be deported to Nauru or Manus Island indefinitely.

Thanks, I will try that. Does this still happen though even if someone took my money?

I will keep checking, but I don't like my chances, ah well.

I'm so paranoid at ATMs, myki machines and even self services about leaving anything behind that the idea of leaving your money is ridiculous to me
So you've never made a mistake in life? Righto.

No....That's what the CCTV vision will corroborate....Hence the importance for remembering the time you were there...If you still have the transaction receipt, the time will be recorded on it.

If someone nabbed your dough, then your account won't be refunded...The CC vision will show if it was another person in line or just a passer-by. If it was another customer, next in-line, then if they accessed their account immediately following your transaction, then the bank can identify them.

More often than not, the money or card left in the machine will be redressed, as the buzzer sounds to warn you it's still there...If you don't retrieve it very quickly, then the machine will re-swallow them.
